Stretch Marks (after birth)

[claire2711]

I have red/purpley stretch marks on my belly and hips.....I look like a cheese grater!!

I am just lathering myself in dove moisturiser now, but can anyone recomend anything to help make them less obvious?

they will be really red and angry after uv had LO but they fade to silvery grey not long afterwards

use bio oil after uv had a bath to keep moisture in the skin, theyre just 1 of those things that comes with bein preggas im afraid

i saw on that how to look good with gok wan thing where they had concealer to hide stretchmarks but it was really fussy with a brush and powders and stuff

OK so here's my admission - I love my stretch marks and I'm sad that they are fading
