cocoa butter?

Hello! Wondering what kind of cocoa butter (or other product) you use for stretch marks? I would like to use a product that's natural if possible (or mostly natural). Any suggestions?

There is a site called pure formula that gives you $10 for signing up. It's free but there are plenty of vitamin options as well as lotions such as shea butter,coco butter, almond butter. It's an awesome site and heck, free stuff! (;

I have used the generic grocery store brand from Meijer grocery store (in Illinois),  and i have no stretch marks! It was like 5 bucks for a huge bottle and it has worked wonders!  My doc said don't spend a fortune on those expensive creams etc, took her advice and i have no stretch marks using my cheap lotion!  I'm 35 weeks!

I use bio oil at night then cetaphil in the morning. The bio oil is recommended for stretch marks, I like the way cetephil feels.
