I starting using this product in pregnancy with the hope that it would help prevent stretch marks, I should have known that stretch marks are a genetic thing but I kept buying it even though I really disliked it just hoping it would work. I really dislike the smell, the feeling in the skin after and even on your hands after. It literally would feel like I’ve bathed in cheap canola oil. The smell is the worst part for me. I spent so much money on this product and wish i could say it was because I loved it.

Tips: Try the Ecotan Glory oil instead!!
I used this product on my scar when I was in high school. I never continued using the product until my scar completely disappeared. When I started using this I noticed a rapid recovery, which was impressive.
I used it for both my pregnancies, 1 at 23 years of age and 1 at 34 years of age. I believe that's why I didn't get stretch marks at all. I did put on weight, as well as the baby sized tummy, so bio oil certainly got put through its paces. I recommend it as worth a try.
Tips: Don't put it on your face without patch testing as my daughter had a reaction in the form of red blotches. It could be just her sensitive skin. I used it on my face no worries
I Started using Bio Oil when pregnant with my first at age 34, after a shower just rubbed into to warm damp skin, I was expecting it to leave a greasy feel and take ages to absorb, but I couldn’t have been more wrong. It left my skin feeling smooth and almost Matt after just a few minutes of massaging on the desired areas. I even found it great in small amount on my face. Lovely product with a pleasant fragrance that won’t over power any of your other normal beauty products. Only complaint might be a better bottle to stop drips running down the side and leaving rings if your a little bit rushy After two pregnancy’s last being at age 37 and using this product I can happily say I have 0 stretch marks and will continue to use this product to leave skin silky smooth.
Tips: Take your time and work it in, less is more, and warm damp skin (straight after a shower is best)
I used this when I was pregnant, and while I didnt end up getting any stretch marks, i got really itchy every time I used it. Not a bad product by any means, but I certainly wouldnt use it again.
I love this oil I use it every day for stretch marks and I can see that it's working. It does take a while so be patient and continuously use. Smells so good too and can use it on hands and face if needed. Will never run out of this in my house
I really liked this for my body, but I did not see some of the results that the product claimed. My flatmate at uni used it a lot to prevent stretch marks when she was losing weight and it helped for her.
Tips: Try it in the bath, when you get out you will be covered in the product and your skin will feel really good
I actually bought this for my daughter when she was at highschool but she wasn’t really a fan of how it felt on her skin. I used it a few times. Not really keen on oil based products on my skin especially during summer due to the muggy weather so I couldn’t give advice on results
I really did my best using this twice a day every day for 3 months for a scar on my arm. But it didn't seem to lessen or get better for me.
It is an old scar so I knew it will take time and patience. But it was hard to keep this routine. I do think that it's a really long time and a lot of effort put into this 3 months twice a day.. that's a lot of time to put into getting rid of scaring to only see no result :/ cool product just takes forever to work if it does work.
Tips: better for pregnant women avoiding stretch marks
Sorry to say i dont feel this worked for me. Its expensive and i didnt feel it absorbed into my skin well I have used other oils that are far better. I still have almost a full bottle left.
Tips: Trial this first before you buy if you can
