Clarins Huile "Tonic" Body Treatment Oil -Particularly recommended to help prevent stretch marks during pregnancy and lack of firmness during weight loss.

Also the Elmis Japanese Camelia oil is lovely.

i've got the clarins one. smells lovely. does bugger all for stretch marks....

i found bio-oil was brilliant for old stretchmarks.obviously nothing can make them disapear altogether but i found marks i'd had for 5 years faded dramatically with that stuff.

I used a combination of boi oil and palmers stretch mark cream erligiously, twice a day for the whole of my pg with dd and got stretch marks up to the top of my belly, some women stretch well, some don't.

It can help keep your skin soft and feeling lovely and it's always worth a try!

I use any lotion I've got to hand, although my favourite is body shop coconut body butter - it smells gorgeous and has a really thick, luxurious feel. From what I hear, it's the massaging action and moisturising that helps the most with warding off stretchmarks, so pretty much any common-or-garden body lotion will do.

i heard vitamin e or vitamin a oil is good, but never used it so you will have to see if anyone has to find out whether it works or not.

[BrandyTutter]

ah, thanks all

got through 2 bottles first time around. not a single stretchmark. may have had nowt to do with it but am not going to risk not using it this time

I started out with baby oil and bio oil but got a nasty rash from both. I thought I would with the clarins because its quite perfumed but have been fine with it.

I do think a lot of it has to do with your skin type but its worth trying something!
