A friend told me it was really great, and so I went to give it a try. I found it pretty useless in removing/fading scars even after using it religiously for a month or two.

Tips: You can always use it to remove eyemakeup in a pinch or if you have a ton left over that you aren't going to use.
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
I have some bad scarring on my arms, and was told that Bio Oil was the absolute best product to use on them. However three months later I have not seen the difference I was hoping for. Yes they have gone down a little bit, but I didn't find this nearly as successful as everyone told me it would be. It is really oily, and it takes a while before the skin you have applied it to loses that horrible shiny look. It does smell nice though, so I guess that is an upshot. I will keep using it until someone recommends something better though.
Tips: I am really bad at remembering to apply it, so I keep it beside my bed to remind me first thing in the morning, and as I am climbing into bed at night.
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 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.
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
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.
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.
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.
I was hoping to use Bio Oil to reduce the appearance of acne scars on my face, and I used it in conjunction with my benzoyl peroxide acne cream. I put it on at night, all over my face. After a month or so of doing it every night, my skin was a lot clearer and the dark acne marks had faded a lot. The only reason I stopped doing this was because I ran out and never remember to buy more.
Tips: Like just about all beauty products, it may not work for you. It does just sit on the skin, but I found that applying it before bed was great because I didn't have to worry about having an oily complexion. If you do this and are worried about it going on your pillows, just lay a soft towel down or apply it earlier on in the evening.
