I personally have tried this product once when i just had stretch marks and then again when i was pregnant as i thought i would give it another go but sadly both times i saw no difference in the appearance of stretch marks or making my skin elastic...
I will probably not spend any money on this product again and would not recommend it to anyone either..
Its a very well known and advertised product but for me doesn't do it..
When your dealing with scar and stretch marks you need to be working at a deeper level. Applying this oil did nothing! the smell was nice and did give the skin a silky appearance but that was all. if your serious about stretch marks and scaring a topical cream isn't going to work!
I found bio oil great at the start, when it first was available. It did help with my slow healing scars and wounds, which healed faster and aren't as prominent on my skin to this day.
It was also pretty good rubbing into my scalp for when my hair was dry.
Tips: If used regularly, I'm quite certain it will work for most. Also, when rubbing into scalp and hair ends, don't keep in for too long, as it'll look like a grease pit! Remove by rubbing shampoo into the scalp while dry, jump in and rinse off, wash hair as normal. Trust me, your hair will be soft!
One more tip, my partner dives, and comes back sometimes with lumps on his face from toxins from certain mussels. I always put bio oil on them, and he says its soothing and takes a third of the typical time to heal!
This has been raved about by a lot of people, but I'm sad to say that Bio Oil did nothing for me. I realise this isn't a 'miracle in a bottle', but I thought I'd notice a slight improvement in the appearance of my stretch marks. I'm glad to see that some reviewers below have experienced the same lack of results as I have. Will not be repurchasing Bio Oil.
I'm really not a fan of this product. There are tons of other oils out there that I would definitely pick over this one. For me it doesn't really soak into my skin and leaves me really feeling oily and yucky. I prefer other natural body oils that soak into my skin and leave it feeling hydrated and smooth.
I used this religiously for months after having a accident that left the front of my legs scarred and I have to say once the bottle was gone there was absolutely NO improvement to my scars. I felt it was a real wasete of money and most people I know who have used it have said exactly the smae thing. It is a nice moisturizer but after reading one of the other reviews about what is in it I will be sticking well clear of it.
Tips: Save your money!
I used this when I was preggie with my little munchkins and it gave really good results. The texture is quite greasy and you have to wash your hands abit to get rid of it, but I found that if I hadn't had used it, my stretch marks would be a lot worse.
Tips: A little goes along way, but hey smother it as much as you need, every bit helps in the prevention of stretch marks.
I used bio oil after having stretch marks develop when I was 32 weeks pregnant with twins. I used to slather it on as my skin felt like it was ripping, and used it all the way up until they were born at 41 weeks. I was told not to use it for too long due to the chemicals in it, but it did seems to soothe my skin a little. I of course still have stretch mark scars and cannot comment if they are better than they would be otherwise
I love this product! It is a bit oily and thin but it really works well!!! Got rid of stretch marks and does go a long way! Really happy with results, recommended to friends and they love it!
This oil does NOT help with stretchmarks and fasley markets the product as helping to make them fade or prevent. This is not the case as stretchmarks are genetic and happen at a cellular level. I used this twice daily through pregnancy and it did not help during or after! Much too expensive for a product that doesn't work.
