Moms swear by £1.50 purchase to prevent stretch marks – as Jorgie Porter jokes with son
MOTHER’S have given Jorgie Porter advice about stretch marks as her baby bump continues to grow.
Many told the pregnant actress, 36, that they swear by a £1.50 skincare product sold at Superdrug.
Jorgie looked in good spirits as she posed with her son Forest for a photo shared with her 749,000 Instagram followers.
Forest placed a hand on her stomach as he copied her by lifting his top to expose his own.
“Whose bumps are bigger?” Jorgie said, captioning the post.
“We had a wild Friday evening comparing bellies. Forest is obsessed with my belly button squeaking [laughing].
“I think my stomach stretched out so much more this time.
“For those who have used them, which stretch mark creams and oils have worked for you?”
Jorgie expects to give birth to her first girl in early December.
More than 13,000 people liked her post and moms flooded the comments section with their suggestions.
“I swear by Clarins oil! I have super stretchy, noticeable skin and never got any when I used it during pregnancy. I used it every day,” one person wrote.
“My belly is so much bigger this time. I use bio oil every day,” said another.
“Tropic’s Tamanu balm is incredible,” a third added.
However, the majority of commenters were delighted that they had the best results using Palmer’s cocoa butter.
“Six babies and I’ve only used Palmer’s cocoa butter and I don’t have a single stretch mark on my stomach. My mother only had me and her belly is covered!” someone said.
“Palmer’s Coco butter worked for me,” said another.
“I used Bio Oil every morning and evening along with Palmers Stretch Mark lotion and I never got a single stretch mark,” wrote a third.
“The My Little Coco impact masks are also great, especially if they’ve been in the fridge.
“They really help with that itchy feeling when your skin feels extra stretched lol.”
