Best oil for stretch marks?

DSD boobs have have a growth spurt - she has gone up 2 cup sizes. This has left her with very dark noticeable stretch marks on her breasts all around them. I was going to get her some bio oil, but wondered if there are any suggestions of anything better? And whether the marks will eventually fade? Thanks in advance.

Any oil that she likes will me fine. It’s the massage that will make the difference (if any) not the oil.

And yes they will definitely fade but they won’t disappear if she’s very pale skinned then they won’t be noticeable.

Bio oil. Or palmers cocoa butter for stretch marks. I used them alternate days when I had really big red itchy stretch marks and so I can't tell you which did the magic!

Bio oil! It's amazing.

They are quite red at the moment bless her, she’s not happy. The alternate bio oil / palmers cocoa butter sounds good. Will get her some and see how it goes. She’s olive skinned, so they are very noticeable:

They will fade, especially if she regularly massages the oil in. I second the bio-oil and also rosehip oil (Holland and Barrett/Amazon) or an AMAZING oil is Clarins Tonic body oil ((available online).

I didn't have a single stretch mark (tiny boobs mind 🤣) until I was 28 and in my last month of pregnancy 😫 Thought they'd never go, but they have.
