April 5, 2021 Written by GP Team
Usually, stretch marks appear as long, thin stripes or lines.
The collagen becomes unstable as the skin stretches, which causes the development of fine lines under the topmost layer.
You’ll Need:
- ½ cup raw cocoa butter
- ¼ cup extra-virgin coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon Vitamin E oil or 6-7 Vitamin E Capsules
- 2 tablespoons rosehip seed oil
- 2 tablespoons sweet almond oil
- 20 drops lavender /or frankincense essential oil
- Using a double boiler, gently melt the cocoa butter and coconut oil until melted and well combined.
- Pour both the melted ingredients into a glass container and let it cool to room temperature.
- Add in the remaining ingredients and mix really well.
- Keep in the refrigerator until the cream starts to solidify.
- Remove from the fridge and whip it in a blender until the texture is similar to whipped cream.
- Transfer it into an airtight container, seal tightly, and store in a cool, dark place.
There you have it!
An all-natural stretch mark cream that actually works!
With no parabens, artificial fragrances, or any other junk.
To Use:
- Warm some cream between your palms and massage your skin with it in a circular motion and let it be absorbed by the skin.
- Repeat this twice every day and follow up with a moisturizer.
Benefits:
Vitamin E:
- Vitamins such as Vitamin E, which heals the dermis, and Vitamin K, which eliminates weakened and dead cells, are present in coconut oil.
- Vitamin E is an antioxidant noted for its skin-regenerating and anti-aging properties.
- To reduce the size of stretch marks, it can be used.
- Your stretch mark treatment regimen can be improved by mixing vitamin E with these essential oils that have other skin-rejuvenating benefits.
Cocoa Butter:
- By seeping into the dermis (middle layer) and not just the epidermis (top layer), cocoa butter helps stretch marks, and cocoa is simply the one butter that can accomplish this.
- It is able to hold even more moisture as the butter is absorbed into the dermis.
- Cocoa butter tends to soften and even eliminate stretch marks.
- It has such a nutrient-rich profile that the advantages go far beyond avoiding current stretch marks and treating them.
- It produces a beautiful all-over body butter.
Coconut Oil:
- To dull the scars, coconut oil is used and has proved to be very useful.
- It has outstanding moisturizing properties and promotes the skin’s overall health.
- It is the skin that absorbs anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, and anti-microbial properties and cures them.
- With the application of oil, the irritation caused during pregnancy may be minimized.
- It nourishes the skin that has been weakened and reinforces its cell walls.
- Vitamins such as Vitamin E, which heals the dermis, and Vitamin K, which eliminates weakened and dead cells, are present in coconut oil.
Rosehip Seeds Oil:
- From the fruit or ‘seeds’ of roses, rosehip oil is produced.
- A moisturizer containing rosehip oil has helped prevent the severity of stretch marks in pregnant women with past stretch marks, according to a 2013 report.
- In avoiding new stretch marks, it was also substantially more successful than placebo.
Sweet Almond Oil:
- Sweet almond oil is a great ingredient for skincare and can get rid of all skin woes, such as dry skin, dark circles, and stretch marks.
- Almond oil, rich in vitamin E and other vital nutrients, deeply moisturizes the affected areas, encourages cell health, decreases mark redness, and, with time, removes stretch marks.
