| I'm not, but I should be!
I already have plenty of stretchmarks from being overweight as a teenager, but perhaps I should still be taking 'precautions' lol! | | | | Status: Offline

| Sounds lovely, but I am slapping bio oil on twice a day and E45 lotion at least once a day too, and I'm amazed at how much bio oil I'm getting through like that! It's fairly expensive stuff isn't it?? Does anyone know of a sneaky online place to get it nice and cheap? I'd love to have a massive hoard of it and use some to bathe in!

Shadow xx | Apparently Wilkinsons do their own version called Rescue Oil for about £1.99. My friend used it and swore by it. | | | | Status: Offline

| PS I would bathe with it but we have no bath! Instead I put on Lush's King of Skin while I'm still wet, or rub in some olive/bio oil while I'm still wet. | | | | Status: Offline

| Boots have a 3 for 2 offer at the moment!
Apparently my oh saw some similar to bio oil in a shop called 'savers'. Not seen it myself though. I get through a lot too. X | | | | Status: Offline
