Bio Oil

This product helped my stretch marks 100%. Applied twice daily (sometimes only once) they just disappeared. But after reading these reviews I would think twice about repurchasing if I had to.

I wouldn't repurchase bio oil, however, I would continue to use it if it was given to me, or if I found it on a good special. The only thing bio oil has done for me, is hydrate my skin and prevent it from getting dry and itchy. (Mainly the tummy area). No improvement on stretch marks whatsoever, which is a shame as that was the only reason why I purchased it in the first place.

I was put off buying this because of the reviews other gorgeous ladies had written, however Farmers did a give away and I received a free bottle and I'm rather pleased I have! I have found this product to be AMAZING. I'm using it on my wrinkles and I've noticed a definitely diminishing of the fine lines around my eyes, the creases in my forehead and overall my skin on my face is looking smoother and more refined. I've also used this product after shaving my legs and my legs were soft and smooth and very very touchable, or so my husband tells me ;) I think this product is only limited by your imagination, almost! I'm looking forward to seeing if these results continue for me

Ahh Bio oil...what can I say... 1st of all this product is pretty much a (very) over-priced baby oil, which will actually do less for your skin than a $10 bottle of actual baby oil!

It is jammed packed full of NASTY ingredients, such as Isopropyl Myristate(which is used in flea and tick treatments), Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone(banned from most fragrant products!) and Hydroxyisohexyl 3-Cyclohexene CarboxaldehydeL (common causer of allergic reactions). Seriously this so called specialist skincare oil is nothing more than a bottle full of chemicals, fullers and dyes. The formulation claims to be a combination of plant extracts and vitamins suspended in an oil base but in reality Bio Oil contains 29 ingredients... four are plant extracts two are vitamins used in nearly every cosmetic product and one is a mineral oil, the rest are nasty chemicals that your skin just dosnt need!

My experiences with the product... well it even smells of chemicals, it takes forever to soak into the skin and it does nothing for stretch-marks, scars or uneven skin tone. If I could give this 0/5 I would!

My mum bought this for me as she had seen the ads and thought it would be good for me after I had shoulder surgery in July 2012. I started using it a couple days after surgery and I had asked the Doctor if it was ok to use and his reply was, Its not so much the oil you use, it the motion of the massage that helps with skin cell rejuvenation. He did use alot bigger words that I can't spell lol. So 3 times a day I religiously massaged it around my scare. I found the Bio-oil really thick greasy feeling, the smell was ok but noticed it didn't really absorb into my skin. My scare is ok looking but not as good as my neck one which I used macadamia oil as I really like the feel and it absorbs into the skin, so hydrating. Now also wondered if my neck scare looks better as its in a crease and the skin is looser compared to the tight skin on my shoulder. Overall I do feel its more of the motion than the oil and Bio-oil is just too greasy for me I'll stick to macadamia oil.

I was very disappointed when all this left me with were grease marks on my clothes. The smell is nice but I don't like the really thick, oily feeling on my skin.

3 kids later and a series of tiger stripes to rival a tiger, I thought this would be perfect to try. Hyped about so much on tv, I thought wow this may actually work. Well.... I was very disappointed. There are oil products out there that dont actually leave your skin feeling oily, this one unfortunately wasnt one of them. I can't stand that oily feeling, and I really dont want to be sticking to my clothes. Maybe I might have seen some results if I had managed to use it for longer than a few days! Not worth its pricetag either, I found it to be quite over priced.

I used this religiously while my body was growing through high school and after. It hasn't really done much at all. Yes stretch marks have toned down maybe 20% but they're definitely still there and I don't think it changed the condition of my skin or skin tone. I personally don't like how extremely greasy it is and its hard to fully work into the skin. Some people like the scent but Its not for me.

I've heard so many rave reviews about this and how it reduces visibility of stretch marks and all that. I was very disappointed when all this left me with were grease marks on my clothes. The smell is nice but I don't like the really thick, oily feeling (yes, I understand it's an oil) on my skin.

I won't be using this again, it's one of those 'hyped' products that's not all that.

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!
