How can I get rid of strech marks and razor bumps? I have strech marks on my stomach and razor bumps you know where. I'm 14F,so telling the parents about why bikini bottoms aren't so ideal anymore would be embarrasing.

basically anything that has collagen(strengthens the skin tissues) and elastin(allows the tissues in your body to take another shape after stretching) will help reduce and get rid of stretch marks.
also, vitamin E helps so i recommend products with it.

Razor bumps are sometimes inevitable. They can be minimized though. Don't shave for about a week, it'll give your skin a chance to recover. Moisturize and exfoliate regularly. When you do shave, use a sharp razor [dull razors are awful for the bikini area] and lots of shave gel or conditioner. Shave in the same direction the hair grows as much as possible, since this minimizes irritation. After you shave, dry the skin and moisturize, and wear boyshorts if possible because it'll avoid chafing/irritation. If you continue to get bumps, you could be allergic to the shave gel you're using, or just be sensitive to shaving. Try another method of removal such as waxing or a depilatory like Nair.
If you STILL don't want to wear regular bikini bottoms, boyshort bottoms are another option. You'll have a different tan line, though. [ LM's advice column | Ask LM A Question ]
