I used this oil throughout my first pregnancy, and really loved the smell and ritual of rubbing it on as my belly grew. I thought it was working really well, until my baby was born and I could see the bottom of my stomach and all the stretch marks :-( So although it didn't prevent stretch marks from forming, I would recommend as it kept my skin from feeling itchy and tight during pregnancy. It was a nice way of feeling like I was looking after myself - and to be honest I don't think anything would have stopped me getting stretch marks anyway!

Tips: It is a bit messy being a liquid oil, so I would be interested in trying the new dry skin oil Bio Oil product, which is like a cream rather than the runny oil.
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
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 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 used this oil after my pregnancy thinking it would make all my stretch marks go away, but unfortunately it did not do what it said it would, for some reason a month after using this my stretch marks went a reddish color, so I stopped using this product. I still have my stretch marks, just not as bad as they were.
Tips: Rub oil into needed areas and sit in the sun and let it bathe into your Skin, it's the best advice I ever got.
