What are the benefits of D.I.Y. cream for stretch marks?
At the beginning, I have to warn you that homemade cosmetics deliver the looked-for effect but only in the initial phase, so when the stretch marks are fairly new – when they are pinkish. Therefore, it’s very important to keep skin supplied with water and apply beauty products that lift sagging skin to prevent the appearance of stretch marks. Although it’s difficult to foresee when the body skin will be involuntary stretched, still it’s possible for us to counteract this. Here is the group of people who are most prone to developing stretch marks: pregnant women, people who put on weight fast, teenagers who are at their growing phase. It’s said that this skin imperfection affects mostly women because their skin is thinner and more delicate.

What are the benefits of your homemade cream dealing with stretch marks?
The effects that this cream creates are determined by the three ingredients you used to make it.
- coconut oil – contains vitamin E that is responsible for skin regeneration. Coconut oil hydrates skin and lubricates it, which is why skin gets more supple. Try to get unrefined and organic coconut oil because only this type of oil contains the highest concentration of essential nutrients.
- aloe jelly – replenishes skin with water, soothes irritations and relieves inflammations. Additionally, it accelerates wound healing processes, gives you this pleasant cool sensation, makes skin soft and elastic.
- peppermint essential oil – it makes you feel fresh. It has an antibacterial effect and brightens skin up thanks to vitamin A that it contains.
