Did you know? A natural method for treating stretch marks: extra virgin olive oil.
Summer is coming and how can you prepare for the long-awaited, and feared!, swimsuit season?! Hiding those hideous stretch marks can sometimes become a problem. Stretch marks do not represent a health risk, but they can be unpleasant to look at and are often an unpleasant cosmetic nuisance. Don't be discouraged! Here's a simple natural remedy to combat them: using extra virgin olive oil.
Extra virgin olive oil contains nutrients and antioxidants, and if slightly warmed, it can also promote blood circulation in the skin. Therefore:
bring a little extra virgin olive oil to room temperature (about one/two minutes) using a saucepan. Do not let it smoke or get too hot;
Gently massage extra virgin olive oil onto stretch marks, leaving it on for about 30 minutes before removing with gentle soap and warm water.
In general, extra virgin olive oil is an excellent solution for the care of dry, delicate and dehydrated skin, but it is also beneficial for all skin types. Try it, it will make your skin shiny and very soft in any case.
Try it and believe it!
