How to prevent Stretchmarks??

[Starlust]

Anyone else using Mustela?

I bought Mustela Anti Stretchmarks cream and lotion (way cheaper in France than here) so I hope they help prevent. I'm 15 weeks palang naman & so far wala pa.

I also started rubbing Nuxe Huile Prodigeuse on my tummy.

due ko na this month at ngayon na sila naglabasan . Ano kaya pwede pantanggal nito?

[CebuGem]

it's been six months since i gave birth and my stretchmarks are slowly fading.  i just slather shea butter from body shop hoping it will fade for good.

^mine has become significantly lighter also. i used vanila co.'s shea butter and cocoa.

hi mga sis....feeling ko kahit ano ilagay natin mag stretchmarks talaga...depende talaga sa elasticity ng skin ng isang nag bubuntis...kase ako nag lalagay ako ng tummy butter...pinapatungan ko pa ng glysolid cream...wala effect...strechmarks pa rin...kalungkot...=(

[glyzza026]

sana maging effective yung binili ni hubby for me, try ko sya after ko manganak.

True. It's also hereditary. Pero nakakainis kase my mom walang stretchmarks eh 5 kameng anak nya. Ako naman konti lang sa sides pero sa tummy wala.

^i second the motion. tsaka on how we take care of our skin rin IMO. even before I got pregnant, I love using lotions already so it was like a natural thing for me already to keep my skin moisturized during my pregnancy, tho I was more diligent in applying stuff nga lang aside from using a moisturizing bodywash as well. I'm glad my vanity paid off Now naman I'm still using bio oil to lighten my stretchmarks I got during my teenage years.

I uSed Clarins stretch mark control cream and their Tonic Oil. They have a pregnancy linr kasi talaga. I just had my baby last month, no stretch marks yay! Pero may nabasa ako dati, yung mga older women (28 above?) who get pregnant have a lesser chance of developing them
Kasi nga less elastic na ang skin natin. Super gradual and stretching na nangyayari. Onti na kasi collagen natin daw hindu tulad nung mas bata na skin na mabilisag stretch tapos pagkapanganak liliit ulit mg sobrang bilis---yun yata nakaka-cause ng stretch marks. At least pala may mga bagay na advantage ang pagiging preggy older lol

[theshopaholicprincess]

^ sis where did you buy Clarins stretch mark control cream... Im nearly due na at ever since I don't have stretchmarks, pero ngayon sya lumabas. Eh dati regular ako naglalagay ng palmer's lotion for stretchmarks pero may nag appear pa rin sa tummy ko I'm 28 y/o and above pero di pa rin maiwasan talaga...

mawawala din kaya to after pagkapanganak??? Inggit ako sa mom ko kasi ang linis linis ng tyan nya

[missgen]

yes you're right theshopaholicprincess! before i was so happy because i reached already on my eight months no stretchmarks at all. and kung saan pa na kabuwanan ko na saka nagsilabasan huhuhu. sabi nang ob ko di talaga daw maiiwasan yun lalo na sa mga medyo maliit lang ang tummy. but now okay na hindi na masyado halata but still di na mawawala ang bakat. okay lang carry pa rin naman 

[Lauren_GT]

I am overseas sis but in the Philippines, Clarins is available at Rustans. :-)

[theshopaholicprincess]

^ thanks sis. I'll try to go nalang at Rustans.

@missgen, yep true. Alam mo yung tuwang tuwa ka na ang linis linis ng tummy mo ng 1st and 2nd trimester ng pregnancy tapos eto na... surprise ang stretchmarks. Di ko naman kinakamot at religiously naman maglagay ng stretchmarks cream pero nag hello pa rin sila. sana nga after I give birth eh mawala din sila. Hindi rin naman ako nag gain ng sobrang weight, though super lumaki lang tyan ko after 8 months na sabi naman ng OB ko natural lang daw.

[missgen]

kaya nga hindi na ako naniniwala na wag daw kamutin kasi yun daw ang pagmulan. to the max talaga desiplina ko noon sa sarili ko during my first pregnancy.

i bought body shop's cocoa butter moisturising stick yesterday. i'm on my 22nd week na and so far wala pang stretchies. hope the stick would help in increasing my skin's elasticity pa. though mom ko, malinis din tummy nya. sana namana ko.

[katalinah]

Hi ask ko lang kung sino dito ang nakatry na ng burt's bees mama bee nourishing body oil? I've read good reviews kasi about sa product na yan for stretchmarks.

[mafiapenguins]

nung weekend sale sa megamall, nakabili ako ng 2 body butter sa body shop; 70% off kasi yung second one, so parang 400+ lang yung isang tub. i got olive and shea. am only on my 7th week, pero started applying olive. keri naman sya, though hindi ako sanay sa texture nya, kasi mejo sticky saya than lotion. pero, parang mas smooth and mas malambot yung skin ko. mas matagal din bago magdry yung skin ko (yung parang nagsstretch). i just hope effective sya.

i also saw palmer's tummy butter sa rustans, and it's cheaper than body shop. so siguro, after my two tubs, i'll shift to palmer's. bahala na.

[oreo08]

nagresearch rin ako about this and eto malamang ang combination ko...

clarin's huille tonic
clarin's stretchmark control
mama mio tummy rub stretchmark oil
mama mio tummy rub stretchmark butter
mama mio omega super rich body cream
palmer's massage cream for stretchmarks

ang dami nya pero I dont wanna look back kasi and think na "naku sana tinry ko rin eto, baka wala akong stretchmarks ngayon" so all out na!  pagttyagaan ko magpahid nyan kahit nasa work ako (shempre punta na lang sa toilet) para lang wag magkastretchmarks... or kung magkaron man, konti lang!

[missgen]

mga mommies wag na lang natin masyadong dibdibin yung mga stretchmarks na yan. let us remember there are women out there really longing that marks.

nag prepare na ako ng Palmer's Cocoa Butter for later use.
