Bio-Oil® is a specialist skincare product that helps improve the appearance of
scars, stretch marks and uneven skin tone.

Its advanced formulation, which contains the breakthrough ingredient PurCellin Oil™,
also makes it highly effective for numerous other skin concerns, including
aging skin and dehydrated skin

Improving the appearance of scars
Bio-Oil helps improve the appearance of all scar types. It is also highly effective in helping to maintain the elasticity of scar tissue on joints and other high-mobility areas.

Bio-Oil should be massaged in a circular motion into the scar and surrounding skin, twice daily, for a minimum of 3 months. Younger scars have a greater chance of improvement within a shorter time period, however, older scars will also benefit from the regular use of Bio-Oil. On new scars, Bio-Oil should be applied only once the wound has healed, and should never be used on broken skin.


Improving the appearance of stretch marks
Bio-Oil is highly effective in helping to improve the appearance of existing stretch marks. Bio-Oil helps to increase the elasticity of the skin, thereby the possibility of new stretch marks forming is reduced.

Bio-Oil should be massaged in a circular motion into the stretch marks and surrounding skin, twice daily, for a minimum of 3 months.

Preventing pregnancy stretch marks
An estimated 75-90% or women are prone to stretch marks during pregnancy, particularly in the second and third trimesters. The likelihood of developing them varies according to skin type, race, age, diet and hydration of the skin.

Bio-Oil should be applied to the abdomen, breasts, hips, buttocks and thighs twice daily from the first trimester, to help prevent the appearance of pregnancy stretch marks by moisturizing and maintaining the elasticity of the skin.

Bio-Oil should be applied to dry skin directly after bathing or showering, and allowed to fully absorb before getting dressed.


Improving the appearance of uneven skin tone
Bio-Oil helps to improve the appearance of uneven skin tone caused by hormonal fluctuations, skin-lighteners or excessive sun exposure. Visible as dark patches on the face or body, uneven skin tone often becomes most apparent during pregnancy, menopause or after exposure to high volumes of UV light.

Bio-Oil should be applied to the areas affected by uneven skin tone, twice daily, for a minimum of 3 months. Bio-Oil does not contain sunscreen factor, so sunscreen should be applied once Bio-Oil has been fully absorbed.

Aging skin
Sagging and wrinkled skin commonly associated with aging is largely caused by the weakening of the collagen and elastin support system in the dermis. Bio-Oil contains numerous ingredients that help to plasticize the skin, making it softer, smoother and more supple, thereby reducing the appearance of wrinkled and sagging skin. Bio-Oil also moisturizes, which improves the texture, tone and appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Bio-Oil should be applied twice daily to the affected area.

If used as part of a daily skincare regime, Bio-Oil should be applied before regular moisturizer, as moisturizers can leave a residue which blocks the absorption of Bio-Oil. However, Bio-Oil has sufficient moisturizing properties to render an additional moisturizer unnecessary. It does not contain sunscreen factor, however, so sunscreen should be applied once Bio-Oil has been fully absorbed.

Dehydrated skin
Bio-Oil helps replenish the skin’s natural oils that have been stripped away by factors such as:
Frequent bathing/cleansing with harsh soaps
Excessive perspiration
Atmospheric conditions including exposure to the sun and wind
Central heating and air conditioning
Poor diet and/or insufficient water intake

Bio-Oil should be applied twice daily to the affected area.

If used as part of a daily skincare regime, Bio-Oil should be applied before regular moisturizer as moisturizers can leave residues which block Bio-Oil’s absorption. However, Bio-Oil has sufficient moisturizing properties so as to render an additional moisturizer unnecessary. Bio-Oil does not contain sunscreen factor, so sunscreen should be applied once Bio-Oil has been fully absorbed.

Testimonials”

“Thanks for a product that does what it promises!”
"...I’ve never written to a company before, either in praise or complaint of a product, but feel compelled to do so in this case. Some time back, my father had a car accident in which his forehead was cut quite badly. It healed well, but left a scar that was really noticeable. A friend of mine recommended Bio-Oil and the results were outstanding. Before long, the scar seemed to smooth and blend into the skin – and now it's so much less noticeable. Thanks for a product that does what it promises!"

“How fantastic!”
"...I’m 42 and have had acne scars from my teenage years all my life. I have been using your product Bio-Oil, and am delighted to report that I can confidently go without wearing heavy foundation for the first time in as long as I can remember. How fantastic!"

“I was absolutely amazed…”
"...Earlier this year, I went for a medical check-up and was advised to have a few small moles removed. I never imagined that this minor procedure would leave me with dreadful marks on my back, chest and worst of all, on my face. Needless to say, I was distraught. One of my friends urged me to start applying Bio-Oil daily. I was absolutely amazed when the appearance started to improve and now, one cannot really even tell where the moles were!"

“I only wish I had heard about Bio-Oil soon er”
"...When I was fifteen (I am now forty), I was in an accident which left me with an ugly burn scar on my leg. For years I felt terribly self-conscious about the dry and flaky appearance of the scar and always tried to hide it under long skirts and trousers. You can therefore imagine how happy I was to discover Bio-Oil! I have been using it for three months now and the results have been outstanding. Unbelievable! I only wish I had heard about Bio-Oil sooner."

“I can now wear a bikini when on holi day”
"...I felt I had to write to tell you what a wonderful product Bio-Oil is! I half-heartedly tried it thinking it would be the same as most products on the market, but was amazed when it actually did what you claimed it would! I have a seven-year-old hysterectomy scar and after using Bio-Oil, its appearance has greatly improved - so much so that I can now wear a bikini when on holiday! Thank you for a brilliant product which I intend to keep on using!"

"I decided to give it a go and was very impressed..."
"...I am quite a skeptical person at heart, but like many women have searched endlessly for a "quick fix" solution to the horrendous problem of stretch marks. I found out about Bio-Oil via a magazine advert, and to be honest, still expected to be greatly disappointed. But I decided to give it a go, and was very impressed… even though the marks have not "disappeared", the appearance of the marks has improved as a whole. Not bad for a product that I haven't been using for that long and is a whole lot cheaper than your "traditional" beauty creams. Keep up the good work!"

"After only a few months my skin feels fab."
“I first came across Bio-Oil after a friend recommended it. I was fed up with all my fancy skincare creams and she told me she had just the answer! Well, after only a few months my skin feels fab. You won’t believe the difference!”

"We’ve all become big Bio-Oil fans."
“About 2 years ago my sister discovered Bio-Oil and called me to tell me about it. We both have uneven skin tone on our faces and are always on the look out for something that can help. We’ve become big Bio-Oil fans and are always finding new uses for the product. Lately I’ve been using it for the marks on my legs and I’m delighted with the results! Thanks for an outstanding product. It certainly does what it promises!”

"All my friends and family tell me I’m looking years younger."
"...A friend recommended that I try Bio-Oil when I started developing darker patches on my forehead and cheeks. My skin now looks much more even-toned and my face feels and looks smoother too. In fact, all my friends and family tell me I’m looking years younger."

"My skin really appears to have improved…I feel like a new perso n!"
"...When I was a teenager I developed the most awful brown patches on my face. They made me feel terribly self-conscious and over time I became more and more despondent because nothing that I tried seemed to make a difference. Even make-up didn’t help – it only seemed to make them more noticeable. Then, years later, I heard about Bio-Oil from my new neighbor and I can’t believe the difference. My skin really appears to have improved – the marks are a lot less noticeable – and my skin is glowing! I am 32 and I feel like a new person!"

"To tell you the honest truth, nothing beats Bio-O il."
"...Bio-Oil is fantastic! My skin has never felt as soft and smooth. I have tried so many different skincare products and to tell the honest truth, nothing beats Bio-Oil. The brown markings on my forehead look so much better – I don’t even really think about them anymore! I would recommend this super product to anyone who needs special care for their skin."
