14 Home (And Natural) Remedies For Stretch Marks

Baking Soda

Baking soda is a natural exfoliator. It effectively eliminates dead skin cells because of its alkalinity, which balances the skin’s acid mantle. Stretch marks, which are regions of skin damage brought on by weight gain, can be minimized by exfoliating.

It is best to pair baking soda with lemon since lemon decreases the redness and lessens the visibility of stretch marks. To prepare, put a tablespoon of baking soda and lemon juice in a cling wrap to formulate a solution. Combine half of the squeezed lemon juice with one tablespoon of baking soda, apply the mixture to the stretch marks and wrap it. After 15 minutes, rinse and cling wrap over again.

People with stretch marks can also use baking soda while taking a shower by squeezing a small amount of body wash onto the washcloth and adding a teaspoon of baking soda. Do the following: first, make sure that the baking soda and body wash are well combined. Next, use it to scrub stretch marks in a rotational movement softly. While the body washes and hydrates the skin, the rough baking soda particles will scale off the region. Then, rinse the mixture off. Repeat 3 to 4 times a week until stretch marks disappear.
