Victoria's Pregnancy Secret

It's a mystery to my why some women go through multiple pregnancies without a single stretch mark in sight (my mum is one of them and having had three large babies at 8lbs11, 9lbs1 and 9lbs6, she was lucky to escape) and others are prone.

It seems Victoria Beckham is taking no chances in her fourth pregnancy with Rodial Stretch MX, £59 (rodial.co.uk). The gel is said to boost cell renewal so that skin can stretch without marking. Posh has apparently stocked up her bathroom with the anti-stretch mark must-have, ready for the next 6 months.

For those who already suffer from stretch marks, sadly this product won't minimise existing marks, only inhibit the formation of new ones. For red marks use a green concealer, like ELF Studio Complexion Perfection, £3.50 (eyeslipsface.co.uk) to neutralise redness and keep skin well hydrated with a body oil. Sx
