hey guys, i'm 17 and i've been working out for like a year now...and i've noticed some obviouse stretch marks underneath my shoulder...but above my armpits if u know where i mean...and also some on my stomeache...the lower part..beside the belly button..(both sides) and then i went to shoppers and asked what i could do to get rid of these stretch marks..and they told me to get something with cocoa butter...and so i did..and the bottle recommended it as well for stretch marks..but after using it for around 2weeks the area where my stretch marks are has grown a rash...only 2 for now...1 on my right arm shoulder area.....where the stretch mark is..and the other on my belly..also near stretch marks...so is it the cocoa butter causing this..or smth else? and hsould i keep using cocoa butter...or is there another thing to get rid of make these stretch marks not as obvious? plz help thanks

It's the Cocoa Butter. Same thing happened to me, stop using it till the rash goes away and use it less often, and apply less and you shouldn't get another rash. If you do, stop using all together IMO.

Thanks, and i've always wondered whats IMO? and how often do you use it now? and do you still use it? thanks

It means "In my opinon" and IMHO means "In my humble opinon" I try to keep acronyms out of my posts, sometimes I fail.

icic..so do you still use it?

The Cocobutter? Not so much anymore, my skin isn't growing anymore so now I just use my normal aveeno lotion every day. The cocoabutter loction actually cleared up all my problem areas in about...gosh a month or so. After that I put in the back of my drawer incase I ever get anymore stretchmarks.

stop putting lotion on that area. Leave it alone to let it heal
