    I initially purchased it to treat scars on my face and body, and this is exactly what it is marketed for. Well, that and preventing stretch marks. It definitely did improve my minimal scarring, but wasn't very pleasant to use. I don't love the fragrance and it left a pretty slippery feel to my skin. This is one of the most popular oils out there since many expectant mothers use it to help decrease their chances of developing stretch marks throughout pregnancy. I can't speak for that, but I do know that any other oil will probably do the exact same thing. Stretch marks will happen regardless if they are genetic, but constant use of oil will help reduce their severity. Bio oil does mention to use their product for at least three months to get results. The main ingredient is mineral oil, which isn't comedogenic but also isn't very natural. It also includes some natural oils, including rosemary and lavender, which could be irritating to sensitive skin. Take note.

    I've been using this for about 6 months now to treat dark spots and skin discoloration, but it has had no effect. For the price, I wouldn't recommend using this.

    I never found this product to make a difference on my stretch marks. I also found it was extremely greasy and over priced

    yucky!! I really dont like this stuff. I was using it as a preventative measure for stretch marks and I couldn't stand that oily feeling it left on my body so I stopped using it! I didn't use it long enough to say whether or not it truly is effective for scars or skin care.

    So I bought Bio-Oil because I have some scars that I really hate. I used half the bottle for about 2 months and I saw no change whatsoever. However, I love the smell and it is a great moisturizer. But my understanding is the main purpose of this product is scar treatment, and for that purpose I don't think it works well.

    Not too impressed with this product. I was hoping it would stop stretch marks. I have used it 2x a day..and it did not help out at all. Waste of money for sure

    I found this to be very greasy making it hard to apply and it did not get rid of the stretch marks around my breasts.

    I do not like this product at all. It has a strong herbal odor. It stained my bra when I used it during my pregnancy. It was greasy, and it was way too expensive!
    I can not rate its effectiveness properly because I did not use it more than once. What a disappointment.
