87% OF CHICKS DIG IT
I have been using this product since after I had my first child, hoping it would get rid of some of the stretch marks I had gotten. It hadn't reduced the redness that I had from my current marks but once I was pregnant with my second child I used it through out my pregnancy and I didn't get any new marks. It helps to stop them but if you already have them its quite hard to get rid of.
I bought this product when I was pregnant with my second child. My stretch marks from my first child were just finally starting to clear up when I got pregnant. The second time around my stomach stretched so much quicker and was constantly itchy which in turn aggrevated my ever-growing marks. I started using the product and it really helped to sooth the itchy skin. I still gained more stretch marks and it seems to be working slowly but it is also hard to say as time has also worked on my stretch marks. The product feels greasy when you first put it on but dries up quick, I would apply the product long before you plan to get dressed or use it at night (which is when I would apply it). My husband and I also found another use for it - it works AMAZINGLY on really dry and tough skin, i.e. feet!! My feet are always cracking in the heels and it really helps to get that extra moisutre there....:)
Bio oil claims to diminish the appearance of stretch marks, my body shows otherwise. It leaves your skin feeling greasy.
Ever since I hit puberty, I have getting bad stretch marks on my thighs and my breasts. I'm not overweight and I didn't know what to do to get rid of them. I bought Bio-Oil and have been applying it every day for about 3 weeks. It has an oily feel to it, but my skin absorbs it fairly easily. I haven't noticed a drastic difference but it is recommanded to wait 3 months. I will continu to apply it. I'm satisfied with this product.
I've had to recently stop using the Bio-Oil. Its been creating zits on the areas I've been applying it.
I'm quite disappointed that it didn't work as well as I would have hoped.
Presented as a Vitamin E oil, this is also mixed with other ingredients like soybean oil which means that the oil isn't as potent as it could be, it's a bit overpriced for such a little bottle. It doesn't even help with my stretch marks at all and I've used it religiously for months in addition to rubbing cocoa butter over my stretch marks. It's nice and moisturizing but leaves a sticky feeling on your skin the day after so I'll give it some points for its moisture effects.
When I first heard of this product I ran out and bought one for each of my sisters and myself. It is a must have for any woman. Bio-oil saved my hips and breasts from the worst streatch marks every. My sister was so thankful when it helped her acne scars. Any little red marks purple scars try this it works.
I purchased a bottle after hearing so many good things about it. I have some acne scars on my face that won't fade no matter what I try. So, I gave Bio Oil a shot. I applied it religiously for about 2 months and didn't notice anything. I was pretty disappointed.
I recently heard that you can put Bio Oil on your eyebrows to help stimulate growth. I have started applying it nightly so hopefully I'll be able to finish the bottle finally!
Unless it was at a very good price and I did notice extra growth on my brows, I do not think I will purchase Bio Oil again.
I used it while pregnant to prevent stretch mark... twice a day but it didn't work at all!! And the oily feelings that leave bio oil on the skin... I really don't like this product!
I used this while pregnant.
I used it twice a day starting from about 13 weeks all the way till birth, I then still used it after birth(few times a week). I found it helped prevent stretch marks and lighten already there stretch marks. It took awhile for it to soak into my skin, which was a pain but it left my skin soft, had a slight scent which I didn't mind. I found it worked better than palmer's cocoa butter, which I found over greasy and did nothing but irritated my skin and cause it to itch (which when your pregnant, you already itch enough from dry skin).
