Dry Brush or Exfoliate -
Get a dry brush, you can buy them from most drug stores or supermarkets, if you can't find one, just use a loofah
Brush or scrub the affected area before a shower or bath, what we want to do is remove the dead skin layer or surface layer of the stretch marks, do not do this on broken or damaged skin, just use your common sense
After exfoliating, you can then have your shower or bath, then moisturise or use a stretch mark cream, see list of creams below
You may have to do this a few times a week, as doing it just now and then is unlikely to have an effect, therefore exfoliate a few times a week, and apply cream regularly, preferable daily, numerous times if possible

Shea butter
Cocoa butter
