“How to remove stretch marks” is the age old question of just about every woman that I know. If you’ve been pregnant and gained more than just the recommend 20 pounds, chances are you’ve got these ugly lines and want to get rid of them too.

With all the advancements in medicine it should be a pretty easy task right?... Yeah right! Some say you have to treat scars from the inside with nutrition and hydration, some say you have to moisturize with oils and then we have the opinion that the only way to get rid of stretch marks is through surgery!

I’ve tried a few of the topical treatments like vitamin e and emu oil had some success but it makes sense to me that a compilation of ingredients would really put my stretch mark treatment in overdrive. When I heard Oprah talking about skin crèmes for stretch marks I did some research on one that I had about before on another program; Striation Stretch Mark Cream

When I found their site the first thing I noticed was that they were offering a free trial that day… woohoo… my lucky day! All I had to lose was a couple dollars for shipping and I could see what they were talking about on The Oprah Show.

I paid my $4.00 bucks and waited for my order to arrive.

And waited… and waited. Doesn’t it seem like whenever you really want something to happen fast time seems to stands still? I always tell my kids to have patience… I guess I have to follow my own advice… and wait some more.

Finally a week later the UPS truck arrived with my Striation package!

Some of the products that I’ve tried didn’t smell so hot, so the first thing I did when I opened the box was break open the tube for a smell. Hmmm, no problems here, Striation has past the sniff test!

I couldn’t find a list of the ingredients before I bought it so the next thing I did was check out that list: Alpha Hydroxy Acid, Vitamin E, Shea Butter, Açaí Berry, Green and White Tea extracts, Aloe Vera extracts and sweet almond oil, no wonder it smells good!

Striation has a patent on their formula so you know it's got to be unique… now I’m really happy that I made the decision to give this a try. Apparently the AHA is used as a chemical peel to remove the dead upper layer of skin cells and then the moisturizing ingridients do their stuff.

Well, here I go, I’ll let you know how well I like this stuff in a few days. Wish me luck. If you are still asking how to remove stretch marks for yourself, go ahead, get Striation a test drive for yourself!
