I had read all the hype, had friends swear by this "miracle" so thought I would try it. First impression was the smell, I found it to be an odd soapy smell not at all pleasant to me. The texture of the oil was super runny and I found it came out of the bottle way too fast. It was easy to apply but I found it took ages to be absorbed by my skin and I felt a but Tacky after dressing. I used this all over my body when pregnant and really rubbed it into stretch marks and super dry feet. I honestly saw no change to anything. I gave up after a months use. I used it on dry feet, stretch marks old and new and a scar on my throat, No changes anywhere at all.

Tips: My tip, don't believe the hype. I found no changes to my scars or stretchmarks at all.
Used it on pregnancy sttetch marks. It worked but it took alot of purchases and a long time. Itdid kind of reduce the appearance. I didnt like the feeling of it under clothes. Nothing more annoying than a top sticking to your already itchy pregnant tummy in the midst of summer.
In saying that, I would probably try it again. I did enjoy the smell of it
Helped to reduce stretch marks but not to the degree i would have expected it didn't do much to the thick stretch marks i found rosehip oil a much better option
I used this when I was pregnant with my children, as stretch marks are a hereditary thing in my family I was bound to get them as well.
Bio Oil claims it reduces the redness of stretch marks & scars but found all it does everything but.
Was very disappointed with this product and wouldn't try again. The smell is not very pleasant either and is way too oily.
I am unsre about this product. I would so like to say yes yes yes it does all it claims but i havnt had personal proof of this i did use it during pregnancy to prevent stretch marks, but i was sporadic in using it. I did not however get stretch marks but weather this was due to this product or just that my skin type was less likely to get stretch marks i am unsure. that said, as i now have mature / aging skin i find i use this as a moisturiser on my chest, bust, hands and the tiniest amount on my face with success.
I got the 125ml bottle on discount and it lasted aaaaages!! Although it didnt help to reduce stretch marks as much as I had hoped, it left my skin hydrated, and I really like the smell, I would use it again, but wouldn't recommend it as it is not very effective for the price.
-Have not tried it on scars or aging skin
Tips: A little goes a long way - the oil applies very smoothly
Not for me. I found the product too oily even when I used only a little amount. I disliked the smell too. Found no difference in stretch marks or scars. I gave it to my work college who loves the stuff - different strokes for different folks I guess. I won't buy this again as there are other products I prefer.
I have just recently had a baby and he is three months old. From the time I began to develop stretch marks during my pregnancy until about a month ago I used this product. I followed the instructions and havent Really seen a difference in my stretch marks in the duration of this time. Hence the face I haven't carried on using it. Don't think I will try it again as it just didn't work for me.
Tips: Wash your hands afterward!
Not a big fan of this product. It says on the container that its not greasy but the two times I've purchased it. I find it never really absorbs into the skin. End up with it on my clothes. Have decided to stop buying it.
Tips: Rub into skin really well
It slightly reduced the appearance of my stretch marks but not by very much. I found this product very sticky and oily plus made wearing clothes after application very uncomfortable. On the plus side it has a nice scent to it. Not worth the amount spent
Tips: When using this product apply with enough time so it wont stick to clothing.
