Natural Remedies to Remove Stretch Marks
1. Apricot Mask to Remove Stretch Marks
Many people use apricot scrub for rapid removal of stretch marks from their
skin. However, I am giving you the recipe of a mask made from apricot that you
have to apply on your stretch marks daily for at least a month or more.
Get these things:
• Apricots- 2-3
• Lukewarm water- enough to wash off your skin having marks.
Do this:
• Cut open the apricots and remove their seeds.
• Crush the fruits to get their paste.
• Apply this apricot paste on your stretch marks.
• Leave for about 15-20 minutes.
• Now wash off with warm water.
• Repeat everyday (you may initially do it twice a day) for a month.
2. Aloe Vera to Remove Stretch Marks
Benefits of aloe vera are now very popular among the fans of home remedies.
This herb has in it the plant collagen which excellently repairs human skin
too. Use, as far as possible, the fresh aloe gel taken from the leaves instead
of using store bought gel.
Get this:
• Aloe vera leaf
Do this:
• De-thorn the aloe vera leaf and remove its outer skin.
• Take out the sticky gel from the inside of the leaf.
• Apply this fresh aloe gel on your stretch marks.
• Now forget it for two hours.
• Wash off with water after this couple of hours.
3. Oils to Remove Stretch Marks
Natural oils are excellent emollients and they have these capacity to treat
all scalp and hair problems as also skin issues including stretch marks. You
just need to identify the right type of oil for the very purpose. You should
ideally gently massage your skin having stretch marks with oil for about half
an hour daily. However, just applying oils to the marks (something near to
soaking them in oil) can also do wonders. If doing so, you need to apply oil
for about three to four times a day. Olive oil, with all its antioxidant
properties and loads of nutrients, is considered one of the best oils for
removing stretch marks but there are many other oils that you can use. They too
are good when it comes to curing stretch marks. Here is the list.
• Olive oil
• Lavender oil
• Rose oil
• Frankincense oil
• Myrrh oil
• Geranium oil
• Helichrysum oil
• Chamomile oil
The best thing will be to mix certain oils and then apply to the marks.
Here’s the recipe.
