This is one of the simplest ways of using castor oil for stretch marks. Castor oil provides your skin with moisture, which helps to clear stretch marks.

The antioxidants present in this oil helps to restore skin cells to a better state. When castor oil is in a warm state, the skin absorbs its nutrients better than when it’s cold.

All you need to do is heat the castor oil to a point where your skin can tolerate it. Apply it by massaging the affected area with the oil for five to ten minutes.

You can leave it overnight or wash it after an hour of applying it. Repeat this process and you’ll notice a change on your skin.

Aloe vera is popular for its amazing effect on the skin as it stimulates the fibroblasts to produce more collagen. The production of collagen reduces the appearance of stretch marks.

Mix one tablespoon each of aloe vera gel and castor oil together. Heat the mixture to a temperature favourable for the skin.

Apply and massage the mixture onto your skin for about seven to ten minutes. You clean it off after an hour or leave it overnight, but the process has to be repeated daily.
