Unscented Body Butter That Fades Stretch Marks

Stretch marks are a natural part of pregnancy for many women—up to 90% experience them. As your baby grows, your skin stretches rapidly, especially across your abdomen, breasts, hips, and thighs. While completely preventing stretch marks may not be possible, reducing their severity and fading their appearance naturally is achievable—with the right care and ingredients.

What Causes Stretch Marks During Pregnancy?

• Skin Expansion: Rapid stretching of the skin causes tears in the dermis.

• Hormonal Changes: Increased cortisol levels can weaken the skin's elasticity.

• Genetics: If your mom had stretch marks, chances are you might too.

• Young Maternal Age: Younger skin tends to stretch more rapidly.

• Weight Gain: Excessive or fast weight gain can contribute.

• Large Babies: More stretching leads to more marks.

• Longer Pregnancies: Prolonged skin tension increases the likelihood of marks.
