Bio Oil

I used this when pregnant with both of my children as a preventative from stretch marks. It worked for me or it may be genetics? I used this in the shower to get a good coverage but I did find that it would irritate my legs so I used it on areas where stretch marks may appear. I don't think it would get rid of stretch marks that are already there, mainly as a preventative. It isn't cheap to buy and there are likely to be other options out there now. I can't review on scars or uneven skin tone.

I’m bad at keeping a routine but I’ve purchased this a couple months ago for scaring all over my body, my mum has raved about bio oil before. My scaring is starting to fade slowly and I’m looking into trying some of their regular skincare routine products! Will keep trying this to see how it works over 6-12 months

I was recommended by a friend to try bio oil to help combat ingrown hairs. We had both been recommended a product by our beauty therapist but found this didn't work so well and was very chemically. Bio oil works a treat!! less ingrown's and if you do get them much easier to get out.

I lost my appendix in 2013 (well we had to break up we wanted different things)

I had some scars from surgery and this has helped me heaps. I think it is something that works over time. I think this isn't for everyone but it isn't a quick fix!

However it said it could also be used as a moisturiser and.... well it lied! Well for me anyway it was just to greasy and caused my skin to freak a little. So I keep it as my secret weapon on my scars although I hope not to get more of these.

Like everyone, I initially used Bio-Oil in the hopes of preventing stretch marks. I can't say it *absolutely* didn't work - I didn't get stretch marks around my belly button, which is mostly where I applied it - but I did get them very low on my abdomen and round my hips, where I hadn't applied it as religiously. Legitimate correlation or just the way I carried? No idea.

But! Several months ago I started using it on my legs and elbows in the vain hope it'd help my psoriasis. It didn't even claim to help psoriasis, but nothing else was working and I figured it was worth a shot.

Well, it took a while, but my plaques are now completely gone. To be honest, it might have been the strict moisturising regimen as much as the actual content of the moisturiser... but it worked! Smooth elbows for the first time in years.

I've also noticed that a dab on my face helps heal acne scars quickly, as well as being a nice light moisturiser.

I know this stuff's controversial, but I like it... for certain purposes. And as much as it costs, it's cheaper than rosehip oil.

I have used Bio Oil for a number of years, not only on scar tissue but on dry areas and have found it to be extremely effective. I think there is a limitation to what it is capable of doing to scar tissue (as would any product) but for dehydrated areas I rate it above average. Areas I have used it on are elbows, knees and neck area. I rate it above average.

bio oil is one of those things you have to stick with for results, i use it for my acne and its great i put it on everynight before bed, in the start it will make your face breakout, only because its lifting out all the dirt to the surface , stick with it and it could work for you.
