Statistical Data suggest that nearly 90% of all women suffer from stretch marks (striae in medical terms). Adolescents and men can also develop these unsightly blemishes anytime there is rapid stretching and loosening the skin. As a matter of fact, the total of men, women, and teens potentially suffering with striae has been estimated near 75% of the population.
We all know how people say its next to impossible to get rid of stretch marks naturally, hmm.. this is not true. Although this may take time and patience before the result is visible but definitely achievable. Outlined below are natural ways in which stretch marks can be gotten rid of or at least made to fade.
The Solutions Are:
Shea/ Cocoa Butter: This is also great when it comes to treating stretch marks naturally. This super hydrating skin booster ensures your skin retains its smoothness and prevents future stretch marks from forming if used daily.
Potatoes: The juices of the potatoes are full of vitamins and minerals that aid in restoring skin cells. Cut the potatoes into thick slices. Rub the pieces over the stretch marks allowing the juice settle on them. Leave on for a few minutes and wash the residue off with warm water.
Olive Oil: This is equally high in Vitamin E which is great for the skin. This helps in soften the skin and when the skin softens it expands which allows the marks fade easily and also safeguard against future stretch marks. Castor oil is another excellent choice.
Sugar: Yep! you heard right too much of this maybe bad for the internal health but it has got great benefit for the external. Add a cup of sugar, teaspoon of oiland a whole lemon juice into a bowl. Apply this on the stretch mark for 10-15 mins. The remaining can be stored into an airtight bowl and refrigerated for future use.
