Bio Oil

hmmmmm, Bio Oil.. The big fuss on specialist skincare for scars, winkles etc.. I myself purchased Bio Oil for a scar after getting a birthmark removed from my leg, one thing when buying that gave me second thought was the statement "applt twice daily for a minimum of 3 months" THREE MONTHS!! is this how long it would take before I started to see results? But I thought I would give it a good from plenty of recommendations etc.. I personally didn't think it was that great as it took awhile to work but I do think my scar has healed better than what it would of without using it. Although the scar is still quite visible, I think this product would work better for more minor things as stated such as dehydrated skin and minor stretch marks etc

i like this oil its soothing an smells ok i use it at night on a clensed face an the next day i rinse my face off an my face feels lovely an refreshed i also feels softer , i used it on my scars an never really noticed any change as i was inconsistent with using it twice a day even every day lol , but im willing to keep using it on my scars an see what happens , i like the smell even though a lot of people don't . i really think everyone needs to try it atleast ones .

I have purchased this once and been given it as a gift the second time. Originally I bought it to help with scars from major surgeries, which i never really notices any difference with. although it felt nice rubbing it on.

I was given it while pregnant with my son, to help with stretch marks. My skin marks extremely easily and I scar a lot. Unfortunately it didn't seem to do much with those either, but it definitely felt nice on my poor tight belly. The smell was fine, and I have extremely sensitive skin and I never had a single reaction to it at all.

This slightly orange coloured oil comes in a clear plastic bottle with a screw top lid packaging is basic but ok. To me this oil smells a little bitter but it's lightness and ability to soak in and not leave a greasy residue is great. The uses for this oil are endless I myself tried it as a good all rounder. On my face I did end up with some clogged pores and I have very mild dermatitis and it did actually seem to get worse when I used this oil. I didn't get any extra hydration on my face using this nor did my skin tone even out. I do have a couple of scars and rubbed it into them and did get a tiny improvement or maybe just all the attention they were getting helped them. On the upside this did wonders as a hair oil and I did rub it into my body before moisturising it did help the body lotion slide on easier I also used it on my feet after a good foot soak it did make them feel softer. This I'm not sold on I tried the whole bottle and it just doesn't seem to have the kick that some other oils have had for me

I am unsre about this product. I would so like to say yes yes yes it does all it claims but i havnt had personal proof of this i did use it during pregnancy to prevent stretch marks, but i was sporadic in using it. I did not however get stretch marks but weather this was due to this product or just that my skin type was less likely to get stretch marks i am unsure. that said, as i now have mature / aging skin i find i use this as a moisturiser on my chest, bust, hands and the tiniest amount on my face with success.

I suppose due to the adds and rumors I expected miracles from this product but unfortunately I only seen small results this may be because of my skin type or even because the add made me expect so much I didn't appreciate the result I did see. Very messy to use but most oils are. I wouldn't rush to get this product again but I would id use it again.

This can be a bit of a hit and miss, sometimes it gets rid of my stretch marks and sometimes not. It has in the past got rid of stretch marks but at the moment I am struggling to get rid of several stretch marks and applying it daily but not making much headway, I only continue with it because it's better than nothing.

Bio Oil has been in the bathroom cupboard for as long as I can remember.

It comes in a plastic container that for the most part firmly contains the oil but occassionally allows leaks between the bottle and the lid.

The oil itself is a light orange and has a gentle scent.

In my family we have also used it at some stage. I used it for stretch marks for a long time and cannot say I noticed any significant difference. My brother also used it for a scar which over about 2 years faded to nearly invisible.

Now I do not know if our differing results were due to him being a kid at the time and his skin growing and stretching the scar out, or if it was that the bio oil is better on scars.

I would say this product is worth a go, but results really do vary.

I have used this on and off for a few years. I haven't noticed that it has made any difference to stretch marks but it is a pleasant moisturiser. I've often used it before travelling to make sure my skin is moisturised properly before a skin drying long haul flight. Is a decent product but I prefer other skin oils currently on the market.
