Bio Oil has been around since the 80’s but I am sure it is a much understated product that after closer examination seems to be receiving excellent reviews across the internet.
Bio Oil’s active ingredients are;
Vitamin A which helps to improve the skin’s elasticity, texture and tone.
Vitamin E increases the moisture content of the skin, which softens and smoothes the skin making it suppler.
Calendula oil is obtained from marigolds and soothes sensitive skin
Lavender oil has been used for centuries to treat the skin. It helps to reduce redness and swelling.
Rosemary oil helps to invigorate and condition the skin, in addition to having calming and soothing properties.
Chamomile oil is particularly beneficial for sensitive skin and helps to maintain the natural health of the skin.
PurCellin Oil is the carrier and delivery system for the other ingredients.
Bio Oil is recommended for;
Scars
It helps to reduce the appearance of new and old scars if massaged into the scar tissue 2-3 times a day. Apparently, surgeons often recommend using Bio Oil to help reduce surgical scars. Reports I have recently read from users of Bio Oil have stated that they have noticed significant improvement in quite severe scar tissue. It will not erase the scars completely but it will help the scar blend in and reduce the appearance.
Stretch marks
It can help to prevent stretch marks and reduce the appearance of stretch marks that already exist. This is worth using while on a weight loss programme to keep the skin supple and help prevent stretch marks.
Uneven skin tone and Ageing skin
In the evening massage freshly cleansed skin with Bio Oil to help improve the skin tone and combat ageing. It will improve the suppleness and nourish the facial area over night. It could also help to improve facial scars caused by acne. One lady reported using it whenever she broke out in spots to help prevent scaring with great success.
Dehydrated skin and Daily skincare
If you suffer from dry and flaky skin then use Bio Oil after bathing while the skin is still warm and massage into any dry areas.
Texture of the Oil
The oil is fine not unlike baby oil but it absorbs quicker and will eventually disappear right into the skin so it doesn’t leave greasy patches.
