Hi Hi Mtbs,

Have you started to have stretch marks , or rather have u mummies starting to apply stretch mark cream to prevent/reduce the appearance of any possible stretch marks?

I started using Palmers stretch mark cream(alibeit organic type), but it is not suitable for my 'lousy' skin :embarrassed: then I have rashes on areas i applied the cream on.. So depressing... Palmers is a good cream coz not oily and readily absorbed by the skin...

Any recommendations for stretch marks creams? I heard from experienced mummies that they use like brand like clarin, nivea, house brand from Mothercare, etc..

Recommendations needed! Helps!!:Dancing_wub:

Me dun hv stretch marks so far... I also have rashes after using the Palmers Cocoa Butter. Den my gynae recommended this cream, tink its just a moisturizing cream which i apply whole body. Tink its realy gd, my rashes all gone n skin is very supple. The brand is topicrem. Nt sure if u can get from the shelves. If not, u can go to the clinic at Punggol near the Prime Supermarket to buy the cream straight from them. Tink its $30 per tube. I am oredi using the 2nd tube le.

Hope this info helps!!:Dancing_wub:

For myself I bought the jamu onesh, applied only a couple of times and then I stopped due to laziness =_=

Now at 36 weeks my tummy doesn't have stretch marks but my thighs and boobs do >.<"

Hi iwan2noe

I'm using clarins stretch mark control lotion for the day and body treatment oil for the night for about 2 months. so far no negative reaction (and i have sensitive skin to start with). I tried biotherm before as well for a week plus, had no skin reaction but didn't like the smell that's why i switched :D

U can go to clarins counter and ask for a sample to try before you buy to 'test' to see if your skin has any reactions before you decide.
:D

I also got rashes after using Palmers lotion. After that gynae advise me to stop. Now i'm using baby oil. Actually i think stretch marks depends on individual genes.
