Bio Oil

I used this both times I was pregnant. Great for moisturising and the itchiness but does not stop stretchmarks. It does smell nice and is easily absorbed so doesn't leave skin oily for long and is easily washed from hands. In saying that I am too afraid to not use it.. even though it didn't stop stretchmarks, I wonder if they would have been worse if I hadn't used this. Will be using third time around for sure.

I hear this a lot, that Bio Oil is supposed to magically remove scars, but they never claim to be able to do that. It’s not possible. Look it up, scars may fade and become paler, but they’ll never completely go away. Stretch marks are types of scars, and they’re pretty difficult to avoid during pregnancy. Bio Oil claims to help the APPEARANCE of scars and stretch marks. Anyway, I’ve noticed that Bio Oil did help the stretch marks and scars on my legs fade and grow paler, as well as a nasty scar my cat gave me on my arm. I like the smell of the oil and that it doesn’t leave your skin feeling oily and gross. It absorbs quite quickly and dries well. It’s quite dear, but I manage to make my bottles last ages.

Purchased to help with some of my facial scarring, I only saw a minimal improvement. These are some old scars so I'm not too sure if they were too old to really help and if the product might help better with newer scarring.

I use this product because I have a lot of scars from previous surgeries that have turned hypertrophic. I have been using it for awhile now but I have not noticed much change- probably because my scars are huge. My sister also uses Bio Oil- she has a smaller scar from previous surgery that hasn't turned hypertrophic- She has found that it has helped. It has turned her scar lighter and it is slowy disappearing.

I used this a couple of years ago when I fell over and scraped my face up. I think it helped with healing as I didn't end up with any scarring (luckily) but I didn't find it very effective on stretchmarks.. Also not a fan of the smell or the residue it leaves on your skin!

I used bio oil after having stretch marks develop when I was 32 weeks pregnant with twins. I used to slather it on as my skin felt like it was ripping, and used it all the way up until they were born at 41 weeks. I was told not to use it for too long due to the chemicals in it, but it did seems to soothe my skin a little. I of course still have stretch mark scars and cannot comment if they are better than they would be otherwise

I bought a small bottle of Bio Oil because I heard it works wonders on scars, stretch marks, uneven skin tone, dehydrated skin and god knows what else. It seemed like a miracle product! I've nearly used the whole bottle now on the uneven skin tone on my arms and stomach area, and I can see a small difference, though not much. It does moisturise your skin alright, though I'm not particularly fond of massaging that oil in, and if you wanted this just for dehydrated skin, you would be so much better off with an actual moisturizer from Nivea or something. I will try another bottle to see if there will be more effect, but I recommend you try a product that specializes in whatever you're trying to fix.

I used Bio Oil for my first pregnancy and came through with barely any stretch marks. On my second pregnancy used Bio Oil for awhile until it ran out and then just used a really rich moisturiser and at the end also barley had a mark. Not sure after using both whether Bio Oil is any better than a good old moisturiser - think maybe the answer is just keeping your skin moist and supple while is continually stretching.

I used this after my son was born and on other scars around my body, I didn't find that it made much difference,

Although it is great for dry skin, i ended up just using it on my legs and it left them feeling hydrated

I found it slightly greasy and took awhile to wash it off my hands or off the floor as it always squirted everywhere.

Great as a make up remover though, just make sure to throughly cleanse all the residue off your face
