Quitting is such a hard thing to do. I'm proud of you. :)

I use Bio Oil. I bought mine at a regular grocery store so it should be easy to find. I like it better than lotions because it doesn't make you feel greasy...it also doesn't make you smell slightly like onions like Mederma does. It costs around $8 a bottle, last time I checked.

Cocoa butter is also good, though I don't recommend using it at the same time as Bio Oil. A lot of people use it on scars and stretch marks and get positive results. It also smells amazing.

Be aware that, like all other scar treatments, Bio Oil and cocoa butter take quite a while to work. You need to keep rubbing this stuff on your skin for months to see much difference (though Bio Oil made the pink fade from my scars in a few weeks). Be patient and you'll see a difference in time.

Congratulations on stopping!
It is getting warmer out to continue wearing long sleeves forever.
Makeup is too noticible. This can make it look to other people like you are still cutting. Plus, it can get on your clothes.
I would research or ask my doctor for a good scar cream.

They will take a while to totally heal but you can cover them with concealer probably just try it out.
