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!

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.
I've been using this product for so long. i havent seen a significant change in my stretch marks, but i do enjoy having nice baby soft skin. the smell is pleasant too!. i also use bio oil for my leg after i shave..it helps my legs from getting black head ( when your hair folicles get blocked). I will continue to use this again , But only becuase it smells great and leaves my skin soft.
Ive used bio oil a amst always. It helps reduce marks and damaged skin. I used it especially when i was pregnant with my kids for the stretch marks. Ive also used it on alot f burn marks, i had on my hands. It did not take the marks completely away, but it sure reduced the scaring.
Worked wonders with all the stretch marks that come with pregnancy. I still have a bottle which I use to keep my skin soft. Will def be the #1 item on my list for next pregnancy. Very happy with the results.
Found really good for my first pregnancy when i applied it every day didnt get a single stretch mark second time round i didnt apply every day but only got a couple, also left my skin feeling soft
I used bio oil for years after being sucked in by it's reputation and all of the good publicity it gets, gave it a really good go and I can't say one single good thing about it. I used bio oil specifically to reduce the appearance of a couple of small stretch marks that appeared on my hips due to general growing and changing of my body in my teens. Also used it on my face to see if it would reduce the appearance of pores, tried it on scars, also as a general all over body moisturiser. I have spent hundreds of dollars purchasing and repurchasing bio oil over the years and it's been a complete waste of time and money. Not only does bio oil not deliver what it promises but also it's not all that plesant to use. The consistency and smell of bio oil to me is a lot like cooking oil and it feels quite greasy on the skin. I cannot understand all of the hype around this product, but i guess it must work for some people? The only reason i continued to purchase bio oil is because when i was younger i would irrationally obsess over my imperfections and i would desperately try anything and everything in an attempt to diminish them. Of course now that i'm older and wiser i realize that having a stretch mark is actually not in fact the end of the world.. Don't waste your money on bio oil.
I started using bio oil on some scars and to be honest i dont think it did anything. My skin felt oily even when i rubbed it in well. It is over priced also for what you get.
I have been using bio oil for years. It's amazing. I love it. It smells nice it feels nice and easy to apply. Don't have to use much. I even put it in my hair. It works for me. As I have dry skin This helps it so much. It has made my horrible scar go from pinky red to white can't notice it. So it helps soooooo much I use it twice a day on my scar. Thank you bio oil you have been amazing
Tips: Don't Use to much as a time
