How to Get Rid of Stretch Marks with Coffee Grinds

Are you tired of stretch marks that seem to grow and darken? A friend of mine told me about a great way to get rid of stretch marks with coffee grinds. At first, I was a little skeptical that coffee grinds could get rid of stretch marks! I tried it for a month and much to my surprise, my stretch marks did indeed begin to fade.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Coffee grinds
• Water
• Warm wash cloth
• Aloe Vera Gel
• Cocoa Butter

1. Wet coffee grinds with warm water to form a thick paste. You can use coffee grinds that you previously used for coffee. It's up to you whether you want to use fresh grinds or recycle them to help get rid of unwanted stretch marks on your skin.

2. Mix Aloe Vera Gel into the coffee grinds until you have a thick paste.

3. Apply coffee grind paste on the stretch mark area. Leave on the stretch marks for a minimum of 15 minutes.

4. Use a warm wash cloth to wipe off the mixture from the stretch marks.

5. Rub in cocoa butter into the stretch marks and let it soak into the skin.

6. Repeat daily. You should notice a significant fading of the stretch marks in about two weeks time.

Tips & Warnings

• Don't use coffee the grinds help with the stretch mark removal.
