I have some really bad stretch marks from previous fast weight gain. IS there anything that can be done besides getting as lean as possible and being tan? any creams you recommend or anything?

Anecdotally, I know if people who swear that light body brushing with a body brush and use of essential oils or squaline oil (not at the same time) and even mineral salts have made a difference.

Lani -

Are mineral salts the same as Epson salt?

Mineral salts such as Dead Sea Salts have higher mineral content for feeding the skin.
