Bio-Oil Reviews

For what seems like my entire life I have dealt with deep lines on my forehead (I have a very animated face.. hence the lines). I was recommended this problem to help the situation however it didn't really help me out... however since the bottle was sitting in my cupboard I decided to put it to use on other areas... mainly my legs!

I have always had issues when legs, for some reason being significantly drier than other areas of my body. This product has helped my skin stay hydrated and make my tanning routine much easier and stay on longer.

It might seem strange to use this as a product for legs however it has been amazing and I will continue to use the product on my legs.

My sister used this product during her pregnancy and has no stretch marks so that also is a great sign of a great product.

I used Bio Oil during my pregnancies and more recently on my scar after an operation. Although I won't use it as an everyday moisturiser I think it is great value for specific treatments such as scars. I found once the scar has closed up regular application made my skin softer, the scar felt less 'bumpy' and I had less tension on the site after each application of Bio Oil. Personally I don't think it absorbs grease free but based on my scar location I wasn't fuzzed by it.

I have been using the Bio-Oil for several months now on my scars after surgery. My surgeon recommended to me that I use Bio-Oil.

This oil helps to keep my scars moisturised and my skin soft and supple. Bio-Oil is very easily absorbed and I find it to be quite soothing. I apply the oil in the mornings after showering and at night before bed. This product is not to be used on broken skin.

I use the Bio-Oil on my scars but there are other areas on which it can be used depending on the problem that you have. These include on stretch marks, for uneven skin tone and on ageing and dehydrated skin.

Bio-oil is pink in colour with a light floral fragrance.

This is great for preventing and reducing stretch marks. Whether you’re growing rapidly or pregnant, any quick changes in skin can cause stretch marks and some skin types are more susceptible than others. Using bio oil daily can help to reduce them once you have them and prevent more. My mum had 6 children and she dorsnt have a single stretch mark. It’s quick and easy to use and I love it.

I haven’t seen any notable results from this product on any of my scars. However, as it is an oil, it is extremely moisturising and is good for dry skin and patchy skin. It can be used at night as a light moisturizing cream alternate but not something extraordinarily.
Overall, would only use to treat dry skin. I’m not a fan of this product. I think it’s quite popular but isn’t upto the mark

I always keep a bottle in my bathroom vanity to rehydrate patches of dry skin, uneven skin tone and to prevent scarring when I get scratches or scrapes on my skin once a scab has formed (not suitable for broken skin).

It has a light, pleasant scent with a ever so slight oily texture. I only ever need to use a little bit on each skin mark/patch. Thankfully the packaging has a small dispensing hole so I don’t overdo it.

The instructions say to use for a minimum of 3 months however I find I only need to use the Bio-Oil for 2-3 weeks at a time at the most; sometimes only a few days is required.

This product is Made in South Africa.

I bought this oil as I read a lot of good reviews on it and I have some very deep tissue scarring I wanted to treat. In my opinion it is awful, it doesn’t absorb into your skin and the scent is too overpowering. On reading the ingredients which I usually do before buying oils except on this occasion, I found it contains mineral oil which is in baby oil and is actually a very nasty oil that can cause reactions even burning! And to think it is used on babies!

This is the only product I would use for scars and stretch marks it's so perfect.
Bio-Oil is a specialist skincare oil designed to help improve the appearance of scars and stretch marks. Bio-Oil has a unique formula, which contains a combination of plant extracts and vitamins suspended in an oil base. These ingredients contain skin renewing and conditioning properties, assisting in increasing elasticity, promoting the formation of new collagen and smoothing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. I highly recommend this product

I've started using this on my face as I've noticed just pigmentation from being out in the sun and after a couple of weeks I've noticed some difference and fading. I was a bit hesitant because of the oil and my sensitive skin but pulled through it and will continue to do so. After a while you figure out how much oil to use as in the beginning I was shiny AF.
