3. Olive Oil is One of the Best Vitamin E Foods for Stretch Marks

It’s high in Vitamin E, which is great for your skin.

If you’d like to keep it for tonight’s stir-fry, you can also use straight-up vitamin E oil — even the stuff infused with lavender, jasmine, and rosemary if you’d like.

As long as it has a high concentration of Vitamin E, you’re good to go.

Your skin will soften with olive oil, and when it softens, it expands, closing the gaps on your stretch marks. Some say castor oil is also as effective as any home remedy can be.

Foods Stretch Marks

Rub egg whites on your belly. Time to get icky, eh? Hopefully, it’ll be worth it. The protein in egg whites is purported to be super good for your skin and stretch marks in particular. Rub on the stuff three times a day for maximum fading.

5. Sugar Can Make Stretch Marks Disappear

A brown sugar scrub used in many spas is helpful to remove dead skin, so why not stretch marks. Add a little sugar, oil, and lemon juice and see those stretch marks disappear.

7. Turmeric can Create a Paste to Erase Stretch Marks

Some women swear that combining turmeric with water or oil to create a paste and then spreading it on stretchmarks twice a day will help make them disappear! It only takes a tablespoon, with a teaspoon of olive oil and a little water. Apply twice a day for 2 weeks.

8. Lemon Juice Can Help Erase Stretch Marks

Lemon juice is a natural bleaching agent. Because of that, it can help stretch marks fade more quickly. Rub in the juices to the affected area and let it dry for about 10 minutes before rinsing off. Be sure to do this several times a day for a noticeable effect.
