Stretchies saviour!

[Raspberries]

Just thought I'd share something with you ladies that I think is amazing and actually is working!

I've got strechies allover my bum, and have had them since about 22 weeks or so, despite using moisturisers that claim to help since 12 weeks etc and for the past 2 weeks, I've changed brands and started using Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Massage Lotion For Stretch Marks, AND a cheap version of Bio-Oil called Re-Gen Oil (the packaging looks VERY similar to Bio-Oil!) and in the 2 weeks I've been using them, my stetchmarks have gone from an angry purpley-red to a faintish pink.

I use the Palmer's one in the morning and the Re-Gen Oil at night before bed.
The Palmers stuff costs around £3-£4 for 250ml, and the Re-Gen Oil only £2-£3, I bought them both from ASDA, thought I'd share this cos its made such a difference, I was a non-believer before but I recommend these, and they're both quite cheap too

I've been using palmers coco butter since day one, and haven't had a single stretchie. But the last week I stopped using it, and now I'm covered, so I will be back using it again.

Ive been using Bio Oil obsessively since about 8 weeks or so and I just HAVE to put it on bump/boobs/bum/hips at least twice a day as otherwise Im paranoid on the one day I dont then a million stretch marks will appear!!! At the moment Im going through about 60ml a week of Bio Oil but Ive been buying the 200ml bottles on the internet for about £10 each so its not too bad....
Ive got some of that cheaper oil too and sometimes put it on my bum/hips/thighs and it seems very good and its much cheaper than Bio Oil - but I dont dare change from Bio Oil as Im 31wks and doing ok so far.... (fingers crossed!!!!!)

I saw that cheap bio oil and wondered if it would be any good, so thanks for the tip off!

I find the palmers concentrated stretchmark cream to be the best, it pretty much fades them over night. I would like to put it on 2 times a day but it isn't super cheap
