This is such an over hyped product.every beauty magazine site, tv channel and beauty site have been raving this but honestly after 3 bottles I haven't seen any difference. Just a moisturizing oil and that is it.used during and after pregnancy so find the stretch mark prevention /fading a total fabrication and nothing more.i will not be buying this again

Tips: If you want to use an oil then use organic coconut oil :)
Thought I would try this product as it was getting alot of media attention and I had some scars that were needing attention. Used the product as directed and found no ling term results at all. Was disappointed
I used this while pregnant and after for a year and it did absolutely nothing for my stretch marks. I used it on older stretch marks while using it on the new ones and it didn't budge them at all. So disappointed
I like Bio Oil as a moisturiser & that's about all it was good for for me. I used it consistently for about 2 months & my skin liked it but it didn't reduce the appearance of my scarring or my uneven skin tone. The packaging is appropriate, I like that you can see the volume of the Oil. It has a delicate smell, nothing fragrant.
This is a good product and I would recommend it. However I think it is better to buy Organic Rose Hip Oil instead as I have had better experiences and results with that (moisture building and reducing scars quickly and effectively)
Tips: Explore other oils such as organic rose-hip
I have acne scarring on my face and bought this product hoping that it might help reduce the appearance of scars. It is instructed that you use this product 3 times a day for a number of months for the best results. I found this product to be really oily and didn't sink into the skin at all. This meant that is was unwearable with any other type of product, especially any makeup - my temporary solution for covering up acne scars. I had heard from others that it had worked for them using it just once a day, only taking 6 weeks for results to show. So, i resorted to using it just once a day - at night - so that it wouldn't interfere with my everyday facial skin care. However i often found that an oily residue was left on my pillow as a result and my patience wore thin for this product.
I lost my appendix in 2013 (well we had to break up we wanted different things)
I had some scars from surgery and this has helped me heaps. I think it is something that works over time. I think this isn't for everyone but it isn't a quick fix!
However it said it could also be used as a moisturiser and.... well it lied! Well for me anyway it was just to greasy and caused my skin to freak a little. So I keep it as my secret weapon on my scars although I hope not to get more of these.
Tips: Keep at it. What's that saying? It won't happen over night but it will happen?
I brought this after hearing all the hype reviews but for me Bio Oil didn't live up to expectations. The oil is very greasy and does not absorb into your skin leaving a oily residue on clothes. Although my scars didn't fade dramatically they did lighten up ever so slightly and the massaging helped with smoothing the raised scar but I think massaging with any oil would also do this.
Tips: Best for very dry skin as it's really oily and doesn't absorb.
If you have the patience then this is the product for you!
It really works for stretch marks but you have to apply at least morning and night and massage the areas for at least 15min. Give it about six weeks before you will see a big improvement when it comes to the stretch marks. The really old ones wont disappear completely but will be less noticeable.
One good thing is that its a multi purpose product! Its good for everything from shaving to sun burns! I also use it as cuticle oil on my nails. Which just keeps them in sucha good shape and so healthy! When I had bleach blonde hair, I used to run some oil in the ends of my hair and it help so much to keep it conditioned.
I tried bio oil middle of last year as a last resort to my stretch marks, within a month i was seeing a great difference .. they were lighter and had nearly disappeared and even now after stopping using it they have stayed the same from using bio oil
Tips: Had to use morning and night, and even put it in the bath :)
