Pros:

Makes your skin really soft and visible reduces scars even acne scars. That's what I've been using it for seemed to get rid of the bumps I already had! and is slowly lightening my shallow scars!

Cons:

kinda oily I put the smallest layer under my foundation if you put too much your makeup is going to look awful by the end of the day! haha so bring your makeup pouch I suppose if you're trying it out and don't know how much is enough!

It does slowly fade scars! I've only been using 3 weeks though so it says minimum of 3 months! So I only will have to see by then! I'd say don't use it if you'd like to get rid of acne because it kind of created tiny itty bitty bumps on my forehead? Kinda annoying but its nice and I was only using biooil but now I'm using other stuff so little bumps will be gone soon! BUT BUY! Does get rid of scarring very well

Pros:

More radiant and softer skin. Not greasy, absorbs into the skin. As soon as I began using the product, I could tell a difference in the color of my scars on my legs from the chicken pox when I was younger.

Cons:

None

For the price it's a really great product. As far as scars, it works perfectly. DO NOT use on acne unless you only have scars from it, it may make it worse. I love this product, I prefer this over palmer's cocoa butter! My legs are looking awesome now, and I feel more confident with wearing shorts because my scars are fading.

Pros:

Works very well on fading stretch marks. Leaves skin feeling soft. Works well on face.

Cons:

none yet

I've only been using bio-oil for about 3 days and I love it. It has already began to fade my stretch marks and I love the way it makes your skin feel. I have slightly oily skin so i mix a couple drops of bio-oil with my night cream and it works great.

Pros:

Moisturize
No breakouts

Cons:

uneven skin tone

I was using bio oil for the past 8 months. Although it kept my face moisturized and didnt cause any acne, my face got darker and had to use foundation all the time. I didnt see any noticeable differences and I stopped using this product a couple of weeks ago. Once I stopped using it, I started regaining my natural complexion.

Pros:

Made my stretch marks almost invisible.Has a nice fragrance. Paid roughly $13.00 but was well worth it.

Cons:

It does take time. Do not expect results within the first couple weeks, but within a month or two.

It really does work, it just needs lots of time. I haven't used it on my face because pretty much anything gives me a pimple but as far as stretch marks, mine were deep and reddish looking (how attractive) but now the deeper ones are closer to my natural skin color and some of the not so deep ones are actually gone. (Or really hard to see).

Pros:

Smells Nice, Fast Acting, Evens Out Skin Tone quickly, Reduces the apperance of scars nicely

Cons:

Causes Acne & spots

If your young and have active acne i reccomend that you do not use it for too long or too much. I Had a small amount of acne that was under control but now its caused a breakout. But I highly reccoment that you use this for scars because i used it for about a day or two and it rapidly faded them :)

Pros:

Fantastic moisturizer, leaves my skin feeling soft. Normally when i apply foundation i get a slight dry look on my cheeks but when i applied my foundation after using this product, i didn't get that my skin looker really healthy and had a nice glow.

Cons:

I love to use it in my bath, so i wish the bottle was bigger for the price.

I love it. It is my must have product. Early last year i had a spot break out because i wasn't taking care of my skin. After a ritual of cleansing, toning and bio oil twice a day, the condition of my skin is so much better. Bio oil as pretty much cleared up the scars now. Though I do still get the occasional spots, but bio oil makes my skin look really healthy that they don't bother me to much anymore.

Pros:

makes skin soft, has evened out skin tone, hydrates, doesn't make skin oily after it's completely absorbed.

Cons:

none so far

great! great! great! i have combination skin, so while my t-zone stayed oily looking i still had dry flakes, with bio-oil i have none of those flakes and my makeup stays looking great all day, i've even started using less makeup, as it goes on smoother and i don't feel like i have to use a buttload of powder to soak up the oil in my t-zone because i think bio-oil hydrates enough that my skin doesn't produce more oil.

Pros:

Gives a really nice glow to your face
Does actually work acne scars are heavily reduced

Cons:

Takes YEARS to rub in, dont go out without rubbing it all in
Face looks slightly greasy but disolves after a while

Only use after your acne has gone (red spots) its ONLY for scars not to reduce acne, If you got scars it going to make it worse and worse As for stretch marks it didnt really work with me, well after 3months i saw very little difference but for scars it works a charm
