Ways to Getting Rid of Stretch Marks in Nigeria
Here are Ways to Get Rid of Stretch Marks in Nigeria:
1. Use of shea butter
The oily nature of shea butter makes it a good combatant for stretch marks. Some people do not like shea butter because of its smell.
If you are one of those, you have the option of mixing it with your cream and applying it generously on the parts of your body where the stretch marks appear.
But if you do not mind the smell of shea butter, you can apply it directly to your skin, just before bedtime.
2. White sugar
White sugar is a very effective exfoliator (remover of dead skin cells) and it makes one of the best natural remedies to clear stretch marks.
All you need to do is mix a tablespoon of natural white sugar with almond oil and droplets of lemon juice.
This mixture will remove your stretch marks if you apply it every morning before your bath time for four weeks. With this treatment, consistency is the key to getting the desired results.

Egg white contains amino acids and proteins that can be used to get rid of stretch marks. On getting your eggs, which must be fresh eggs, whip the whites of at least two eggs.
Wash the affected skin area with water, dry it with a clean towel, and then apply a thick layer of egg whites with the tip of your fingers.
Then rinse the area with cold water and keep it moisturized with coconut oil. Continue this daily and in a fortnight, your skin will be smooth.
Eating healthy foods, and a balanced diet with lots of vegetables and fresh fruits goes a long way to maintaining healthy skin.
