When can I start using stretch mark cream? And what brand is best? I've just hit 2nd trimester.

Start now :) I started from week 4. I personally didn't like smell of clarins oil so I switched to Palmer's. If possible, do a smell test 😅I think different mamas find different scents offensive during pregnancy. My friend loved clarins oil but I really didn't take a liking to it.. I find that bio oil has the least scent. I used it on areas prone to stretching, belly, waist, thighs, butt, breasts and upper arms. Do remember to continue applying post partum as weight loss also can lead to stretch marks developing. I think moisturiser really helped because I have stretch marks from puberty but I didn't get any new ones from pregnancy because I applied cream/ oil religiously.
