Get Rid Of Stretch Marks With Coffee

Before starting this routine, it is important to know that it is impossible to completely get rid of stretch marks. However, it is possible to lighten and fade the coloring and indentations they leave on your skin. Read on to find an easy and inexpensive way to help make unsightly stretch marks less noticeable. Does this Spark an idea?


Instructions


1. Mix together 4 tsp. of coffee grounds and 1 cup of coconut oil to create a gritty, pasty mixture.


2. Rub the mixture on all areas of the skin with stretch marks twice a day. The mixture will feel similar to an exfoliating scrub. Rub for 1 to 2 minutes to give the oil time to soak deep into the skin. Do not rub for longer than this, or you'll risk rubbing your skin raw and causing irritation.


3. Rinse your skin with lukewarm water until there is no more mixture left. Pat dry with a towel.


4. Moisturize with a thick lotion containing cocoa butter to soothe the skin, prevent irritation and allow more vitamins to soak into your skin and help fade the marks.


5. Repeat this twice a day, and most importantly, be patient. Stretch marks are stubborn and will take time to fade, but proper and consistent care will help to keep them away.
