Pros:

Starts working very fast, helps soo much.

Cons:

none really

I have very visible uneven skin tone from harsh chemicals used to treat acne, is still have very light acne and it seems to have almost stopped the red spots I get, still get whiteheads though. Ive had this for a few weeks and didn't seem to fade, unlike normal hyper pigmentation acne scars which do fade over time. I worried it may make me break out but it didn't. It took about a week to start to see a difference on my skin, it really improved some acne scars, which wudve faded but they faded a LOT faster, it has, unbelievable helped with the uneven skin tone, and this is using it for a few weeks! It is oily when you apply but it skins in, it will stay oily for a while but skins in very fast, Also, I have very oily skin and it hasnt made my skin worse. It has made my skin very soft and is very good value for money! I have started to receive some compliments on how my skin is looking better, especially from my mum who knows about the treatment. :) Recommend it to everyone, all skin type

Pros:

It is a really good moisturizer, and really does work on reducing acne scars and stretch marks! It evens out skin tone and gives a nice glow! Boi-oil + Roaccutane = nice skin for Tom :)

Cons:

Does take a while, a good couple of months!

Yeah tis some good shizzle!

Pros:

Smells good
Improvement on scars is seen within days
Fairly cheap

Cons:

A bit too oily
It's easy to use too much

I have three acne scars on my nose, and they're only about a month old. I bought Bio-Oil a long time ago, but never used it as I thought it would break me out because I have oily skin. These three scars were really bugging me though, so I decided to try applying the Bio-Oil for a while to see if it would work. I've been using it for about a week now, applying it one or two times a day, and one of the scars has almost completely faded. The two others are getting there, slowly but surely. Although it may be a bit oily, it doesn't really bother me because I'm only using it on my nose when I'm at home and it hasn't given me any pimples so far. This is something you should definitely try out!

Pros:

Works quickly for moisturizing, smells good, protects your skin, does make your skin look and feel healthier and younger! I seem to wash dishes 3x a day, my hands were a mess! With Bio Oil, they looked 10 years younger in a matter of days!!!

Cons:

It is oily, hence the name Bio Oil, but soaks in quickly!

It didn't seem to help my stretch marks, (yet) but it did make my skin feel better. My skin would actually hurt sometimes, from my stretch marks or from my hands always being wet then drying them off then wetting them again with house work, and winter coming! I cut my finger to the bone about a month ago, and as soon as the wound closed, I started using bio oil on my hands and within 2 weeks you can barely see a scar! It's really amazing. If nothing else, use it on your hands and arms, it's so incredible!

Pros:

Inexpensive, lasts for a long time and you only need a tiny amount each time, doesn't clog pores, very good for my skin, best anti-aging product.

Cons:

None.

This is the best anti-aging product ever. I have been using this product on my face morning & night for the past 5 years and my skin is better than it was before I started using it (i'm 33 years old and my skin is better than it was in my early - mid twenties!). I used to have terrible blotchy skin with acne on my cheeks & chin, dry flaky patches of skin and uneven skin tone and nothing would help. Ever since using bio-oil my skin has been almost perfect! No more break-outs, no more dry patches and constant compliments on how I have such good youthful skin! I will continue to use this product probably forever. It doesn't really do anything for my stretchmarks but is fantastic for my face & also the backs of my hands. Highly recommended.

Pros:

Moisturizes without clogging pores. Reduces shine on forehead. Makes my skin feel smooth and soft. Makes my complexion rosy. Works really well under mineral makeup. Great for men and women as there's no overpowering aroma. Reasonably priced.

Cons:

none. maybe b/c it's an oil people think it will clog pores, it totally doesn't. i've tried a ton of other "face oils" that all have clogged my pores in the past...but this one doesn't

Try this for a week. My mom originally bought this for my stretch marks and it seems to really moisturize my skin well, so when i started using retin-a and my skin got really dry and flakey, i thought, why not try this. i first only used it before i'd go to the gym, which is where i first noticed that it took away the shine that i usually have on my forehead (after rubbing it in of course). But then i also noticed my skin started glowing a little more and the zit scars that usually take a week to two to go away (while using retin a) would peel off quicker with the bio oil. So, then i started using it in the mornings under my mineral makeup and it helped the makeup to glide on smoothly. I've been using it now for a month and I'm quite satisfied. I use it day/night/before the gym...after a facial steam. i rub it into zits and it seems to help them disappear too!!!! I recommend everyone to at least TRY IT! it's only $13.

Pros:

Fades scars
my dermatologists made me use it because she said it was the best thing for my red acne marks

Cons:

Makes you break out (not worth it)
very greasy, made me feel like a burger, lol
Takes a week to see results (worth it)

It works, don't give up on it.

Pros:

Lightens scars. Smells nice. Cleared my skin. Helped my uneven skin tone. Worked fairly fast on my skin.

Cons:

Takes a long time for the Bio-Oil to soak into skin, even after it's rubbed in.

I have only used this product for 3 weeks (on my face; acne scars) and already the dark spots I had are fading into nothing, and it no longer looks like I have a whole bunch of acne. I am extremely happy with this product, thanks to it, I no longer need foundation!

Pros:

made my skin look as radiant as it was when i was a teenager. my skin is so smooth and soft even after only 3 days of usage. has evened out my skin tone.

Cons:

none

would recommend this product to anyone who wants to fade away any exisiting light facial scars. besides taking care of scars, you'd be amazed at how much younger you will look after even only a couple days of usage.

Pros:

Easy to use. Skin glows and feels soft. A little goes a long way. Non-greasy.

Cons:

Scent takes time to get used to. Reminds me of bath oil.

I purchased Bio Oil because I needed something that would give me deep down penetrating moisture...rather than a lotion that just sits on top of the skin. I found the 4oz size on E Bay for twenty dollars with free shipping. It's been about a week and I am pleased with the results so far. My sun-damaged, crepe looking skin looks much better. The scent eventually dissapates.
