Sports Illustrated model and now a New York Times Bestselling author, Chrissy Teigen, is not only known for her amazing body, but the public loves her for embracing her flaws that include stretch marks. But although she is not ashamed of having them, she revealed in an interview with Allure Magazine on March 1 that she is actually worried about stretch marks being present on her belly now that her tummy is growing big.
The 30-year-old model told the magazine, "I come from a stretch mark-prone family - I have them all over my butt and inner thighs." The now Mrs. Legend even showed this evidence about 10 months ago on her Instagram account with a caption that says, "Bruises from bumping kitchen drawer handles for a week. Stretchies say hi!"

Channel 24 also got a hold of this news about Teigen's secret to fighting the appearance of stretch marks on her belly region. The publication cited the magazine when Teigen shared the product that she is using.
John Legend's wife is grateful for the creation of La Mer The Concentrate, which has sea extracts that help in healing the skin to prevent stretch marks from appearing. A bottle costs $340 and it might be expensive for some women, but based on Teigen's experience from the product, it looks like it is worth it anyway.
Teigen also shared that she considered herself lucky for having John Legend, as her husband because he doesn't care about those stretch marks that are on her inner thighs and butt. "Luckily, I'm with a man who could not care less about them or else I would be insecure, but during my pregnancy, it was my belly I was scared of," the author of "Cravings" confessed.
"I knew I'd have to do something about it before I started seeing them. But La Mer The Concentrate saved my life. I'm constantly 25 minutes late to everything because my lotion regimen is that long. I put it everywhere," Teigen gushed.
So to all pregnant ladies out there, if you want to be free from stretch marks after your pregnancy, you now know what product to use. Start searching online or ask your nearest local store if they are carrying the product.
