Alternative to Bio Oil

Question

Has anyone used an alternative to bio oil that they would recommend? Hoping for something more natural. My last two pregnancies I only used lotion and my stretch marks are skin tone and hard to see but I want to be more prepared since I weigh a lot more than I did pre-baby my last 2 times.

Answer

Both my sisters swear by this between 3 kids. I am using it now as well (FTM)

Answer

Rose hip oil. Or jojoba oil
I tried to add an Amazon link, but it didn’t let me.
I used bio oil at first, but it made me itch and have a rash. So I switched to rose hip. It kind of has a smell, so if you’re sensitive to that, I’d do jojoba. 
I watched a video that said lotions don’t work because they’re too thick and don’t penetrate to the deepest layers of skin and only stay on top. The video said thinner consistency oils are better at preventing stretch marks because they go deeper in the skin.

Answer

I only used Shea Moisture raw Shea butter my whole pregnancy, along with dry brushing, and had zero stretch marks on my belly! Too bad I didn’t apply it to my inner thighs🙄

Answer

This cream is organic and it’s super moisturizing, plus it doesn’t really have much smell so it’s great for morning sickness. Last time I used Earth Mama oil and cream, but this time I can’t handle the smell and I find the Bamboobies balm works much better!

Answer

I used this and didn't get any stretch marks

Answer
