It's oil

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

Too oily

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.

Its ok

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

Tips: Really good for putting on straight after a shower or bath when skin is still wet.

Fail!

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!

Half minded

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.

Moisturizes but that's about it..

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

Tips: Only use as moisturizer don't expect anything more...

Ehhh

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.

Tips: i used at night time so that my oily skin wasn't affected by anything else and it had time to sink into my skin.

Didn't get any results

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..

Bio Oil

This oil is available from the Warehouse for about $29, it's quite expensive stuff. There was a near identical product right next to it that retailed for $4 and I bought a bottle of that too!

It applies smooth and has a light fragrance. I adore the peach colour of this and appreciate that the oil is easily absorbed into the skin. It was nice and did provide some relief from my seasonal allergy itching as well as spared me from pregnancy stretch marks but I don't feel like the results justified the price because of the near identical product I purchased the same day provided the same results for a fraction of the price.

Tips: Best used straight after a bath or shower when your skin is still wet. Go to the Warehouse if you're looking for this, you might find the cheaper version like I did.
