Lifestyle tips

Anyone have any tips for dealing with the itch? I have a bunch of old, deep stretch marks on my belly between my rolls. Right where my waistband sits. Lately they’ve been itchy to the point where my usual anti-itch lotion isn’t doing much. I’m not looking to make them go away, I like the way they look and they’re deep enough that they’re not going anywhere. I just want them to stop itching.

Newly formed stretched skin is really sensitive so it’s really prone to irritation just try to wear more loose fitting clothes and you might wanna invest in a humidifier

Adding onto this, you want to get something that creates a protective barrier over the skin. So, after you put on your lotion, follow it up with something like petroleum jelly, coconut oil, or raw shea butter.

It’s hard to tell if I have stretch marks coming in or if it’s dry skin, it’s just so dry in tx in the winter and it’s hard to tell. Just dying to get stretch marks cause it means I’m doing a good job. Like proud badges of gaining🫠🥰

Put lotion on regardless of whether it's stretchmarks or dry skin.
