Very disappointed in bio oil.

I brought a bottle off bio oil about three months ago. I have very large read scars on my legs, so had high hopes to at least minimize these. I first opened the bottle, I was taken back from the smell. It was so odd I can't begin to describe it. I used a small amount which went very far. To far I ended up getting it every where. After using twice a day for a few days I notices a red rash which got worse and worse. It was extremely sore and itchy. Despite this I kept using the product (I'm not one for wasting product or money). After a month I toke a photo to compare to my before photo. There was no change. So not only did I waste money, I wasted time.

Tips: Use a very small amount. Be aware off bad reactions to skin.

Not worth the money

I used Bio Oil on my stretch marks. It made no difference at all. I would not use this product again or recommend it.

Meh..

Didn't really do anything for my skin. Certainly didn't help with pregnancy stretch marks! I didn't really like the oily feeling of it, or the smell either. Personally I don't really see what makes it so special at all.. Wouldn't recommend it.

bio oil review

Used this to try and combat acne scarring and stretch marks for a while. Discontinued use as I saw no results what so ever and it made me break out on the area I was using it on face. Perhaps this would work better as a preventative stretch mark treatment when pregnant, however for the price I'm sure there are better alternatives.

Thanks for that. I was thinking of buying some for my son for his acne scars but it doesn't sound like it would deliver so I won't. Based on other posts it might be good for my dry skin but there are lots of other dry skin treatments to try first.

did not work!

I tried using bio oil while pregnant with my first child. It didn't help AT ALL! im covered in stretch marks.. it didn't help prevent them or fade them. I didn't like the smell or the greasy oily feeling it left on me and my clothes and bedding. Will never use it again.

Un-Impressed

Perhaps its because Bio-Oil had such a public campaign, but like the general consensus on BR I was quite disappointed in this product! I bought this to try heal a scar on my stomach from a rejected naval piercing This oil is very slimy and incredibly hard to apply and as just ran everywhere (including staining clothes!). It also took a long time to soak in and left my skin uncomfortably oily (again rubbing ino clothes and bedding.) But worst of all I found it made 0 difference whatsoever to my scarring. I tried dialy for a few weeks and zilch. I really wish I would have checked BR before buying and not wasted my money! The bottle when straight in the bin

Tips: Only invest if you have plenty of time to let it dry, and dont mind the hassle of application And definitely get the smaller size to try on you first.

Doesn't Work For Me

I used this everyday for quite some time & didnt notice any changes what so ever in my stretch marks/scars, I wouldn't Reccomend this product but It might do wonders for someone else you never know. But for the price I payed it deffinately wasn't worth the money.

Overhyped?

I recently tried this, used the whole bottle religiously and saw no noticeable difference. Was pretty disappointed as everyone raves about it. Maybe its a works for some not for others product. But I wouldn't try it again.

Bio Oil

I have been using Bio Oil for over a year due to this being the only product I knew of that was supposed to reduce stretch marks. My stretch marks are quite light due to getting a tad fatter going from a size ten to a twelve. I have only got stretch marks all over my hips and have found that this item doesn't help too fade or reduce them. I was using this product twice a day as advised. To be honest I wouldn't waste my money on this item as it is a waste of time.

Dissappointed :(

I have attempted to use this product many times over the years. At first when puberty hit and I got awful stretch marks on my hips and legs and lastly with stretchmarks during and after pregnancy.

I find the packaging leaks very easily and many times I have had to clean up an oily mess in my bathroom cupboard!

After applying Bio Oil, it takes a REALLY long time to absorb and it leaves you feeling very oily. I wouldn't recommend this product if you enjoy feeling fresh and clean after a shower.

After a long period of using this product, I saw no difference. Once I had my daughter I battled to find time to even apply the product as it takes so long to absorb you cant get dressed.

I really wouldn't recommend this product. I thought because of it's price it would work, but it's really not worth it! :(
