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.

I really didnt enjoy having oily skin when i applied it to my face and hips. Im a mother and it hasnt taken my stretch marks away. I wouldnt use it again!
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
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
Im 32 weeks pregnant and have found when it comes to the itchness and dryness of your belly whlist pregnant, the results you get from this product are an itchier more irritated belly and i found it dried my skin out.
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.
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 :)
