Bio Oil

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!

I used this religiously for months after having a accident that left the front of my legs scarred and I have to say once the bottle was gone there was absolutely NO improvement to my scars. I felt it was a real wasete of money and most people I know who have used it have said exactly the smae thing. It is a nice moisturizer but after reading one of the other reviews about what is in it I will be sticking well clear of it.

I'm really not a fan of this product. There are tons of other oils out there that I would definitely pick over this one. For me it doesn't really soak into my skin and leaves me really feeling oily and yucky. I prefer other natural body oils that soak into my skin and leave it feeling hydrated and smooth.

When your dealing with scar and stretch marks you need to be working at a deeper level. Applying this oil did nothing! the smell was nice and did give the skin a silky appearance but that was all. if your serious about stretch marks and scaring a topical cream isn't going to work!

This oil does NOT help with stretchmarks and fasley markets the product as helping to make them fade or prevent. This is not the case as stretchmarks are genetic and happen at a cellular level. I used this twice daily through pregnancy and it did not help during or after! Much too expensive for a product that doesn't work.

i used it for years, in HOPE that someday i would see a difference, but no, it made no difference, except to my bank account. not something you can afford when you have kids to feed. someone also told me once that to see a difference, it takes ten years of using it. Aint nobody have time for that.

I used this religiously morning and night while i was pregnant from 2months. sadly i still got some stratch marks. so for the price and because i used a few bottles i was very disappointed. i know it genetics too but still unimpressed. It also takes a long time to soak in and absorbed into the skin. also didnt enjoy the oiliness it left on my skin

Its good if you just want to use it for really dry skin. Found it worked good on my dry hands. I found it doesn't get rid of scars and stretch marks like it said it would.

I used it all throughout my pregnancy to try prevent stretch marks and a while after, it did nothing, I actually regret buying it, I thought that seeing as it cost a bit you would be paying for what you got.. I guessed wrong

I saw many ads and reviews on how bio oil can help reduce or even fade away scars and stretchmarks, i went thru 2 medium sized bottles and only noticed that my stretchmarks felt smoother but nothing else happened. I wont be buying bio oil again as it didnt work for me.
