London, Aug 30 (IANS): Singer-model Alesha Dixon says using Vitamin E oil on a regular basis helped her combat stretch marks.

After giving birth to her daughter Azura Sienna in October 2013, the former “Misteeq” singer appeared to bounce back to her pre-baby figure almost immediately. But despite being able to fit into her old wardrobe, Dixon says that she suffered from stretch marks due to her pregnancy.

"Vitamin E oil is so nourishing and super effective. I use it daily - it's brilliant for stretch marks and scars,” femalefirst.co.uk quoted the “Britain's Got Talent” as saying.

She also added: "Coconut oil is a great multi-tasking product - it's great for nourishing hair and skin. I also love to cook with it."

Earlier this year, Dixon launched her own fragrance called Rose Quartz as part of a larger Crystal Collection and she couldn't resist boasting about her "gorgeous" perfume.

"My gorgeous new fragrance is light and feminine with notes of grapefruit, magnolia and amber,” she said.
