Stretch Mark Oil

Stretch marks that have appeared on the skin cannot be completely removed, but it is quite possible to make them less noticeable. There are many ways, but the most popular oil for stretch marks. It is it that will allow not only to almost completely get rid of stretch marks, but also to reduce the manifestations of orange peel, and also nourishes the skin with useful substances.

On the shelves of shops and pharmacies, you can see a huge range of ready-to-use oil mixtures from various manufacturers. But they can also be prepared at home on their own, depending on allergic reactions, personal preferences, financial situation and health status. So, some oils should not be used during pregnancy, for example, rosemary, black cumin and some others.

All oils used in the fight against stretch marks can be divided into three large groups:

1. Natural oils used by our grandmothers and great-grandmothers. The most affordable and simple is sunflower oil, while both unrefined and refined oil show high efficiency. Oils such as olives, cocoa, apricot, peach, argan, linseed, coconut, wheat germ, camphor, sea buckthorn, and almond have gained no less popularity.All of them effectively nourish the skin, increase the level of collagen in it, stimulate the growth of intact skin cells and promote their rapid regeneration. The same group includes oils such as castor, shea, peach, Ayurvedic, amaranth, avocado and grape seed oils.
2. Essential oils, are used as widely as natural ones, acting, as a rule, as one of the components of mixtures used in the fight against stretch marks.
3. Cosmetic oils are made from natural plant materials. Such oils help not only to get rid of existing stretch marks, but also help prevent the appearance of new ones. The great advantage is that they can be used every day. These mixtures are presented in a wide range, but the most popular are Weleda, Mama Comfort, Bubchen, Sanosan and others. A big plus is that such oils can be used both on their own and in combination with other oils.

In the fight against stretch marks, essential oils are not used in their pure form, but are used as an additional component. They are used in small quantities. The most effective oils have shown such as:

• tangerine and jasmine, help to increase skin elasticity, and also make existing stretch marks less noticeable.
• Lemon and rose oils as well as lavender essential oil relax skin cells, soothe it and whiten stretch marks.

The use of all previously described types of mixtures and extracts is very wide. All of them can be used not only to eliminate old stretch marks, but also as a preventive measure to prevent the appearance of new ones. It is also important that they not only help to get rid of scars in a short period, but also help to get rid of sagging skin.

Some types of these mixtures can be drunk, thanks to which the body will receive all the necessary polyunsaturated fats and vitamins.The stomach will be cleansed, and the stomach left after the birth of the child will decrease significantly.

Stretch mark oil, which simultaneously fights cellulite, deserves a separate discussion. It is it that will help to make the figure much better at once in two indicators. It almost completely removes stretch marks, and thanks to the so-called hydraulic force of this mixture, excess fluid leaves the body, and with it the orange peel disappears.

At the moment, all types of oils, without exception, can be used in several variations: in pure form, as an additive to a cream or lotion, as a component of wrap mixtures, or as an ingredient for creating a homemade scrub. Of course, in order to achieve the best result, it is possible only with their complex use.

There are two ways to prepare a scrub with your own hands at home:

1. Mix badyagi powder, sugar and salt in proportions 1:3:3. To the mixture, add two parts of any natural oil and 10 drops of an essential extract of your choice. The resulting scrub must be applied to slightly damp skin and rubbed intensively into it for 5 minutes. Badyaga is sold in pharmacies.
2. It is necessary to mix natural coffee and honey in equal parts. Add vitamin E capsules. For 100 grams of the finished mixture, two capsules are required. And here we add 10 drops of cinnamon essential oil. Or 5 drops of orange extract and neroli. We use the mixture, as well as in the first recipe.

The principle of operation of all masks against stretch marks is simple, you need to apply them on pre-prepared skin, cover with cling film on top and leave for one hour. After the time has elapsed, the mixture is removed from the body with cool water. The most effective masks are:

1. In cosmetic clay, diluted with warm water or milk, to the consistency of thick sour cream, you must add the essential extract of grapefruit and lemon. For 4 tablespoons of clay, 5 drops of essential extract will be required.
2. To 100 ml of base natural oil, add 10 ml of lavender or geranium ether.
3. If the striae are old, then this mask should be used. For 30 ml of olive base, you will need 9 drops of shea extract and tea tree extract, as well as 5 drops of neroli. Everything is thoroughly mixed and applied to problem areas.
4. Ayurvedic oil can be used in its pure form in the fight against chronic stretch marks.
5. A mixture of 10 g of jojoba extract mixed with 3 drops of lavender is also an excellent mask.

All of them are prepared according to the same principle. Essential extracts are added to the base oil base. Such mixtures can be applied once or even twice every 24 hours. In this case, it is best to use them after water procedures. You can add essential extracts according to your taste and in accordance with your goal.

If you want to reduce skin laxity and give it shine, then extracts of neroli, rose, lavender, honeysuckle, grape seed are best suited as essential additives.
