Linea Nigra

Hi all
During my pregnancy a línea nigra developed as it happens to many. Some love it and embrace it!

For those looking forward to it fading, after searching online I found women's testimonies where they shared that they effectively "rubbed it off" with scrubs, q-tips with rubbing alcohol etc and it works!

What worked best for me was glycolic acid resurfacing pads I got from Amazon

Hope this helps!

I'm currently 34 weeks pregnant and I have the black line down my tummy. So it's helpful to know what I could try, when it's safe to do so. Ty

I'd save your money and just wait - it will fade naturally after the birth. It's a perfectly normal feature of pregnancy - why do you feel the need to try and erase it?

Is this an advertisement?

It's an hormonal change, not a bit of dirt.

Wait 'til it starts over your top lip.

It fades. No need to do anything.
