sunny123, do you have any application tricks when using the dermablend? It’s just I’ve read some reviews where people said it set dry and flaky and was hard to match skin tone. Also do you try to just apply it to the stretchmarks or the general area since that would be easier to do depending on number and size of the marks?


First off, I recommend using Dermablend Leg Cover. (Not the regular dermablend makeup for face). It is creamy, but applies with nice good coverage. I did not have much trouble matching the skin tone, because I am very pale, so I just used the lightest color. But...I bought it from the Ulta store which has sample tubes out in every color so you can try it out before buying. Perhaps you have a similar store in your area?

My stretch marks are silvery-white (not red) and therefore pretty easy to cover. I squeeze out a small amount and blend over the whole area. I try to use a very small amount of dermablend in a thin layer, keeping in mind that you can always apply more. I don't think it's dry/flakey at all, but it might depend on what area you are applying to? It is thicker than regular makeup and also waterproof. It usually last a few days (even through swimming and showers), unless I purposely apply cleanser and scrub it off.

One other thing - recently I used this and discovered the color wasn't exactly perfect, because I had more of a tan than usual. After applying the dermablend, I dusted bronzing powder over it for color and then it looked great. Hope that helps!

I have stretchmarks, I am male. I have been SKINNY all my life.

but i got a TON of them on the side of my butt. I don't know why i got them and they're hideous! Im so self conscious aboiut them. Theyre mature now and theyire white and stripy and depressed. i hate them so much. hopefully in the future they invent some way to minimize the appearance or even better, get rid of em.

I'm still puzzled though why i got them. i got a lot. never been fat.

hmm maybe i just grew an ass? i dunno but fuck i have em for life now

No, you don't need the setting powder. It doesn't do anything in my opinion
