Bio Oil - use to prevent

I've seen a lot of reviews for after people already have scars etc that they want to get rid of. I on the other hand use it to heal up cracked skin so that it doesn't end up scarring. I get dermatitis on my hands and feet, and my skin can get very very dry. Bio oil helps it heal up quicker - don't get me wrong, it's not a miracle cure, and it is very expensive, so I use it very sparingly and only when my dermatitis gets really bad.

Tips: Use to prevent scars/marks e.g. if you have cracking skin incl on the heels of your feet

Not for me

Personally Bio Oil didnt work for me as I was mainly using it for my face and I felt like it clogged up my pores and made me break out. I prefer to use rosehip oil.

Bio Oil

I love the feel of my skin after using this product as it does moisturise well but found it has not had any effect on my stretch marks as it claims to help with.

Tips: Use after a shower for best absorption

Not convinced

I purchased this a while ago to use on my facial scars but it just doesn't work for me.

I would apply to my face every night, massaging into my skin with clean fingers but I just kept finding I would break out in the areas I was using it in. I would start using it, break out, stop using it then repeat this process over again. I was never able to use it long enough to see if it really was making a difference.

Perhaps on different parts of the body it works better but I have not had any luck with it!

Doesn't work on me

If you have oily skin do not put this on your face. I repeat. Do not make my mistake. This stuff will not stick into your face it just leaves a sticky residue. I've used it for two months straight and my stretch marks on my bum have not changed. It actually feels like a mix of candle wax and butter, doesn't feel very good on my skin and doesn't do much. The only plus side I have to it is if you have very dry skin like my legs it'll hydrate them enough. But again its like using any other moisturiser not special and works average.

No luck for me

I'm not sure that I could really say this worked any particular miracles, so I can't say it 'does what it says'. However, I never took before and after photos and its hard to say in hindsight what was the natural healing process/fading process and what was due to the bio oil. HOWEVER - it works just as well as a body oil and makes skin silky smooth. So i would use it for that alone. But don't expect a miracle :(

Bio oil.

I used this oil after my pregnancy thinking it would make all my stretch marks go away, but unfortunately it did not do what it said it would, for some reason a month after using this my stretch marks went a reddish color, so I stopped using this product. I still have my stretch marks, just not as bad as they were.

Tips: Rub oil into needed areas and sit in the sun and let it bathe into your Skin, it's the best advice I ever got.

Made me itchy

I used this when I was pregnant, and while I didnt end up getting any stretch marks, i got really itchy every time I used it. Not a bad product by any means, but I certainly wouldnt use it again.

Didn’t like the feeling it left on the skin

I actually bought this for my daughter when she was at highschool but she wasn’t really a fan of how it felt on her skin. I used it a few times. Not really keen on oil based products on my skin especially during summer due to the muggy weather so I couldn’t give advice on results

Bio Oil

Oil consistency is great, but can get a bit greasy as it takes a bit longer to be absorbed into skin. I have used this for my stretchmarks after pregnancy. After 5 months of use have noticed a slight fading but not as much as I was hoping. It does say use it twice a day and as a busy mom of a newborn havent really followed thru. I think for this product to work, one has to definitely use it consistently twice a day and for a very long time.

Tips: Can make skin feel smooth and absorbed faster when mixed with body lotions/moisturiser before application.
