I know there are a million threads on stretchmarks but I can't seem to find them in my sleep and food deprived state lol..

Anyway is bio oil (that $14 stuff) any good at helping to reduce the color of stretchmarks? Being $14 I don't have any faith in it's ability really lol.

Also are there any creams that can help speed up the fading process? I've sort of resigned myself to the fact that stretchmarks are here to stay (got no choice really do I) just wondering if there was anything to help 1. reduce the redness and 2. reduce the shine? Or is it a matter of waiting for nature to do it on its own? Took my hips most of my highschool life to fade I'm not lookin forward to waiting till I'm 30 before I want to wear a swim suit without a tshirt..
