Stretch Marks Home Remedies AND Recipe– Get Results!

Before you spend a cent on expensive creams, let me show you some stretch mark home remedies that are easy, and really work!

First of all, if you are trying to figure out how to get rid of those pesky stretch marks, then you’re not alone. Most women get stretch marks at some point in their life, whether early or later on.

Some skin types are much more prone to stretch marks than others, and like most things in life, genetics play the main role here.

Causes of Stretch Marks

Stretch marks are most commonly caused by one of the following:

• Growth spurts – Teenagers commonly get stretch marks during periods of rapid growth.  These stretch marks are usually most prominent in the breasts, buttocks, thighs and lower back.
• Rapid weight gain (muscle or fat)  - Gaining muscle or fat too quickly can also cause stretch marks virtually anywhere on the body.
• Pregnancy – Many women get stretch marks on their their stomach after pregnancy.

In each case, the actual cause of stretch marks is due to the skin expanding so rapidly that it causes trauma.  The trauma to the skin results in scar tissue, which appear initially as reddish lines which usually turn white later.

Home Remedies for Stretch Marks

Although once a stretch mark has developed it will technically always be there, there are a number of home remedies that will reduce the appearance of the mark, and it may appear as if it has disappeared.

Here is a list of the best home stretch mark remedies.  I am confident that at the very least they will drastically reduce the appearance of your stretch marks.

1. Diet – Take a multi-vitamin supplement, and a separate Vitamin E capsule.  Vitamin E is excellent for the skin and will help promote repair.
2. Massage – Massage your stretch marks with vitamin E cream or cocoa butter.  Some believe that the actual ingredients in these two substances help reduce the appearance of stretch marks, while others believe that it’s the actual massaging motion that helps increase blood flow the the skin thus reducing the appearance of scaring.
3. Herbal Body Wraps – With the right herbal ingredients a body wrap can be a very effective way to eliminate stretch  marks.  The key is using the right combination of herbs and essential oils.

What You'll Need

• 1 cup green clay or bentonite
  1/4 cup sea salt
  2-1/4 tbsp. olive oil
  2-1/4 cups distilled water
  3 drops lavender essential oil (if desired)
  10 strips of bed sheet (about 8inches by 24 inches) or thin towels. 

  What to Do

• * In a medium saucepan bring water to a boil and add sea salt.
  * Once salt is disolved add oil, clay and essential oil.
  * Stir until the mixture forms a wet paste. Add more water if necessary.
  * Using a circular motion, rub the mixture over your body and, using strips of sheets or towels, wrap your arms, legs and torso as tightly as possible, tucking loose ends into one another as needed. You may want to either lay in a lawn chair (if you have privacy) or in an empty bathtub as the mixture can get quite messy.
  * Leave on for 45 minutes to one hour.
  * Unwrap and rinse in a warm shower. The wrapping fabric can be washed and used again.

Tips

• * To aid in opening your pores, take a warm shower or bath before applying the wrap.
  * This treatment doesn't yield immediate results, but you should begin to see results after three to five weeks of weekly wrapping.
  * Try relaxing during this time by meditating or listening to your favorite music.
  * Don't forget to hydrate. Drink at least two 8 oz. glasses of water before and after your wrap. The water helps flush toxins from your system. If you don't like water, add a slice of lemon or orange to increase the flavor.
  * Avoid all caffeine, sugar, fried foods and colored soda drinks for 48 hours after the wrap.
