Cocoa butter is good. Also, Mary Kay has Visibly Fit body lotion that I used on my own--it works great!

I recommend BioOil. Its the only thing that helped on mine. Nothing really fully gets rid of them. But if you do BioOil daily they will lighten. Unfortunately it's not permanent. They seem to come back a bit if you don't do it daily. Sorry, wish I could help more, but really you should just come to terms with them...you are pretty much stuck unless you do some sort of cosmetic procedure. : ) Think of them as scars from your battle of pregnancy and birth! YOU ARE A WARRIOR! : )

After we had our first babies my girlfriend and I rubbed pure vitamin E on our stretch marks. My skin is sensitive to it and I couldn't use it but my friend had great success. You can buy pills and pop a hole in them or I found some in liquid form that I just rubbed on with a cotton ball. I found it all Wal-Mart, if you try it hopefully it works better for you then me.

coconut butter is the common remedy. to be honest if I had it to do over again i'd use something for scarring as my stretch marks are still there though whited out by time. they are like ruts. if you only have a few you are lucky.

They don't disappear but over time they may fade slightly but you may always still see them. Once the skin stretches, stretch marks are here to stay.
