Hi there, have you ever headr of Gok Wan? He hosts the program how to look good naked and I really like the structure of the program because it shows the women how to feel confident about themselves without the need for unecessary plastic surgery and they come out feeling over the moon about themselves as a result of it.

Anyways on one of his episodes he discussed stretchmarks specifically and turns out statistically there are more woman with them than without, thats right - baby smooth skin even for women who haven't had kids is a fallacy that we've all brought into, its what the beauty industry thrives on, he did suggest specific foundation/cover type creams made for the purpose of covering the stretchmarks up for that special occasion and applying it in front of a full length mirror with a cotton bud.
:
His recommendation though is not to stress much about it as those with perfect skin are the minority here, not us!
Hope that helps, you could always ask at the chemist or beautician/makeup artist for more advice.
