Disappointed

I like so many others tried Bio oil when I was pregnant. I found it stung, and left a very greasy residue.. having paid a lot for a big bottle, I put it in the draw until my son was 5 months old and tried it again. It dried my skin out like crazy, and generally did the opposite of anything you'd want in a moisturizing product. I kept using it for 2 weeks to give it any opportunity to work, and in the end my skin was a dried out flaking mess. I switched from bio oil to plain old olive oil out of the pantry and found it amazing in comparison.. I can only assume that the chemical mineral oil base in Bio oil is what caused the issues. Disappointed in the results, and also the marketing - its advertised to give the impression of a natural gentle product, which it isn't.

If I could give it less than 1/5 I would.

Rubbish

I am a plus size girl, and from many health reasons my size isn't small, and as a result I got strech marks ALL OVER. When I first herd about Bio-Oil I was like, hmmm I am not entirely sure if this will work. Then I trailed it out for about a month. I don't know how but my strech marks are worse! I haven't gained any weight but they have mutiplied, and since using Bio-Oil it has caused a huge irriation on my body rashes every where! I am horrified. It sounds great in theory, but it is in the bin now!

meh

I dont feel as if it did anything to my scars really. I have very little scars that i would like to fade a bit more but just seemed to do nothing. I do feel like it made my skin smooth and silky feeling though

dissapointed

I used this product all throughout my pregnancy and i still got really bad stretch marks. I believe it is not the miracle "fix it all cream". your body will get stretch marks as your stomach expands. It may have lessened the end result but i decided not to try again with my second pregnancy

Did not work

I have heard bio oil was good for acne scars and stretch marks from friends and family so I thought I would give it a go for my acne scares. Omg... It burned my face and gave me little bumps. I had a really bad reaction I was horrified!. Sadly it did not worked for me and I gave the bottle to my family.

Pretty good

Got rid of a lot of my acne scars but you have to use it every day. I applied it twice a day, morning and night. It also moisturized my skin.

Tips: Don't apply during the day, you might get patchy skin due to tanning :)

Did the job

This product did dramatically reduce my stretchmarks, but I did have to make sure I used it every day. At first I used it about once a week and there was no change. Definitely a product you need to use every day for results.

Tips: Pour some into your baths- helps with the stretch marks and leaves your skin soft and smooth.

There are better products out there

I purchased Bio Oil for stretch marks, and I definitely wouldn't rate it. I didn't find it really helped, and I've found Rosehip oil works far better, in terms of getting rid of stretch marks.
