    Default HELP! What can I do about stretch marks???

    I had a 50lbs weight gain a couple of years ago and have lost about 20lbs recently since getting back to the gym and dieting, but now I have these ugly little stretch marks on the side of my boobs and on the sides of my waste and a couple of small marks right on the upper portion of the front of my thighs. (They kinda run in my family) I have tan skin so my stretch mark are a darker color and I really need to know if anyone has any suggestions for the following:
    1- Great body make up
    2- Any cosmetics that help fade them
    Please help! This is the only thing that I am really self conscious about. (Thank goodness it is so dark at the clubs)

    Body Beautiful makes a product line that removes stretchmarks.
    www.stretchmarks.com

    I have used their products and they do. The most important thing I found when dealing with
    stretchmarks is your diet. Try eating as much green and other colorful fresh fruits and veggies.
    Also I blend Soy Lecithin granules in my daily fruit shake to prevent new stretchmarks from forming. You can try dermablend, I have used their line. Then again I used regular make-up and a blow dryer too. But dermablend works the best IMO.
    Tanning and self tanners also helps hide them too.

    Really awesome ones, I ended up with stretchmarks on my ass after I had my boy in January, I put the Mederma on 3 times a day and when I was in the shower it seemed like the skin and product were sloughing off (gross) but one month later the skin is no longer discolored and it is smooth... I was amazed.
