Bio Oil

My friend has been using this oil for years and she really enjoyed it. So I bought one for myself to try it out. I have used several oils because my skin can get quite dry so I have a fair idea about the consistency of oils. I find that Bio oil comes somewhat thinner than other plant based oils. I did not like the greasy feeling it left on my skin and felt like it was just sitting on top of my skin without being absorbed. I tried massaging it to my skin which made it absorb better. I was quite disappointed that it did not do much to hydrate my skin, i noticed that it was still dry before applying this product and greasy after applying it. I did try it on my stretch marks and sadly it did not help with that either. I find that like most beauty products, Bio oil worked for others but not for me.

I had surgery on my leg and was left with large scar, I used bio oil for 6 months hoping to reduce the scarring. I think it certainly helped, it never caused any reaction to the skin, soaks into the skin nicely. Worth trying on scars haven't found or heard of anything better. Was recommended to me from cousin who used it on burn scars with great success

There was a lot of hype around this product and as I can get dry skin, I thought I'd give it a try.

The liquid itself I found smells quite nice, no harsh smells. However I only needed a very small amount to make my face not as dry. It is very very oily I found, it feels like you're putting vegetable oil on your face. I used it once only because it didn't feel right putting something that oily on my skin.

Great moisturiser, very oily, it gave me a really nasty rash so stopped using it, I do have sensitive skin though.

Sadly I saw no change in the colour of my stretch marks, I continuted to use this product for a year and haven't noticed 1 slight change at all! Very sad. I recently looked at the ingredients and noticed that there were no things in it that benefited the skin. Worth a try though because I hear it working wonders for some, lucky people!

I tried this because I saw the ad and I have a lot of stretch marks I use it for atleast 5 months n it didn't really do much for me although I used a little on my face and it worked great the discolouration and I had a few dark dots went away but for stretch marks I don't think it work well at all.

I used this product for over 5 months (3 times a day at least) to try get rid of some razor burn scars I had all over my thighs...

Okay let me be honest, I left my burns get worse and worse. I would itch it a lot until it left permanent scars.

I used this as it claimed to get rid of scars and after reading some online amazon reviews, I had high hopes.

I used it and for the first month and I DID notice some improvements in the dryness of my thighs, they were very soft but the scars didn't go away at all. The moisture was good but it didn't deffer much from my normal moisturizer which is by far less expensive! I kept using this 3-5 times a day for 5 months and still no improvements so I gave up!

I then decided to use some old home remedies and even though this is hated by many, I rubbed pure lemon on my thighs twice a day for 3 days. Results? yes, dry skin BUT NO SCARS!! I then used some bio oil for a week to get rid of the dry skin and wallaaaa!

SO in conclusion, thanks for reading my story lol but it didn't do what I expected it to in my opinion. Not sure about stretch marks as I have not tried using in for that purpose but I can tell you that for me, it did not remove ANY scars. It DID moisturize but I would use a cheaper (and better smelling) moisturizer or lotion. This doesn't smell that bad but I prefer other scents

Personally the product didn't really help with my stretch marks, only made my skin very oily and wet. I have since found other products to help but am slightly disappointed this didn't. It worked well on scarring such as acne scars but that wasn't my sole reason for buying this product.

I got it when I was pregnant to help prevent stretch marks.. I applied it on belly many times during the day especially during the end of pregnancy and didn't find any valid reason to use it again and again... Just normal oil..
