Skin tags under boobs

Being an older woman I 'had' many skin tags under my boobs and at the base of my neck. About four months ago I started applyingly body lotions, Avenno, E45, and sometimes an oil, after my shower with a pair of exfoliating gloves as I find it makes my skin very smooth. I've just recently notice my tags are going, no more soreness even when wearing a bra! Might not work for everyone but it certainly has for me. Just wanted to share as I know how uncomfortable and unsightly these things are.

Thanks for this. I have just noticed a couple and want to try to get rid of them.

if I understood correctly OP you are applying body creams or oils after your shower - so when your skin is dry? and with exfoliating gloves?

I bought exfoliating gloves for skin tags and was scrubbing in the shower with an exfoliator but made no difference… am always on the look out for ways to get rid of skin tags!

Applying after drying, as I said this may not work for others but it has for me even though this wasn't the intention.

@Sueray definitely worth a try! Thanks for sharing!

I have been using an African shower net and it's removed lots of little skin tags which seemed to suddenly appear under boobs and uncomfortable with bra
