Some of them do, but that will only be focused on when the magazine runs a story specifically about it! If it makes you feel better type in celebrities, stretch marks and you'll see some for sure...think how well hidden the average person keeps it though- I mean, we know that most get some stretchmarks, but you barely see them around do you...? I got them, I wasn't large, I love rubbing oily creams in anyway and did it religiously- it did nothing, because stretchmarks are not on the top layer of your skin- you are seeing the tears in the 'middle layer' showing through, and no cream could get there- if it could, it would mean your skin was providing an extremely poor barrier, and when you had a bath, your skin would get waterlogged, lol.....I think the only thing that could possibly have an effect after getting them would be expensive laser surgery, and even they don't make any promises! They're really not that bad...it's just different, and I suppose anything we don't have control over that changes our appearance concerns us for a while!
