I am so young and I'm already starting to get stretch marks. I tried coco butter and everything and nothings working. What should I do?

I'm not a beauty expert though but if you're big (kinda chubby) before and lose weight, stretch marks will really appear and become visible. However, there are beauty experts (dermatologist) who specializes in this kind of problem. You can consult it with them. Take vitamin E everyday, maybe it could help. Who knows :)

Vitamin E,

The gel caps, or you can get pure vitamin e in a little bottle. Apply it to the stretch marks on a daily basis. Give it sometime. Vitamin e does work miracles. Even the combination of vitamin e and cocoa butter.

You need to find out if certain creams are safe for pregnancy. All creams go through the pores of your skin and do go through your system. So make sure it is pregnancy safe before using any kind of cream.

.: Bio Oil :. (http://www.bio-oil.info/)

That's the web site not sure if its available in america but you can always look on uk eBay I have to say its really good stuff its what the dr's here give there patients after they have had breast reduction or enlargement to help reduce the scars and marks.

Ok looking at the site it launches in march this year over there so keep an eye open in your pharmacys.

I had the same problem so I then lost 60 pounds and they became less visible.

Also try Solutions Re-Fine Stretch Mark Smoother at Avon Shopping (http://shop.avon.ca/avonshop_en/default.asp) I heard good things about it from my mothers co-worker.
