After gaining a lot of weight, I knew it was time to slim down. So, I've slimed down about 20 pounds (I'm still not skinny, but much better than before), and I noticed I had some strech marks along my upper arm pit area, along the inner arm and near my "love handels". I really don't like them, altho the ones on my upper-inner arms aren't visible (only the indentations), there ones on my upper armpit are, and so are the ones on my love handles.

I was wondering if it's safe to get a spray on tan just to cover up the strech marks, so that I'm not as embaressed about them. Will it work?

I'm not an expert on spary on tans but I think it would make them worse, I don't think the tan would stay on the marks or would maybe be a different colour to the rest of your body.

Be aware that most women have stretch marks, even the skinniest, but if they do bother you, maybe try using foundation or concealer that matches your skin colour to blend them in.

Good luck!

Yes! Over the counter spray tan has made the stretch marks on my breasts much less noticeable. I heard that salon tanning in the beds however, can make them more noticeable. But, definitely the spray tanning does work!

Hi,

I used to have pretty bad stretch marks and red scars around my belly region ever since I gave birth to my three kids.I had tried Vitamin E oil and cocoa butter which a number of people had recommended but unfortunately it didn't seem to work too well. My Doctor had even suggested that I go for a Tummy Tuck. I then recently read an article about a lady who supposedly got rid of her stretch marks using a particular cream. I tried it and it worked really well. It took a number of weeks but my stretch marks soon faded away. You can read the lady's article at the link below.

It helped me VERY much!
I was very uncomfortable when I wore a bikini because there were stretch marks on my upper legs and my hips.
So I used to wear boardshorts to cover up my legs when I went to the beach.
Well I hope this helps you as much as it helped me! Very Happy
