Why you should try Bio Oil at least once
Hello Lovelies,
Today I'm going to review 'The Miracle Oil' which is known to help reduce scars and stretch marks - Bio Oil.
Product Description:
Bio Oil is a specialist skincare product formulated to help
improve the appearance of scars, stretch marks and uneven skin tone. Its unique
formulation, which contains the breakthrough ingredient PurCellin Oil, is also
highly effective for aging and dehydrated skin. PurCellin Oil reduces the
thickness of the Bio-Oil formulation and makes it easily absorbed.
Packaging:
The bottle is placed inside a white carton accompanied
by an instruction manual (it even has diagrams demonstrating the application of
the product). Bio oil comes in a
convenient sturdy transparent plastic bottle (you can always see how much
is left inside) with a white screw on
cap and a small hole to dispense the oil. It’s the perfect shape for both
storage and travel and doesn’t leak
either. I also like that this pretty
pink/peach oil is shown off to it's full as the packaging is completely
transparent except for the labelling and lid.
How to use:
Apply twice daily for a minimum of 3 months. During pregnancy apply twice from the start of the second trimester.
Texture:
The
oil is light orange in color while inside the bottle, The oil is light orange in
color while inside the bottle, but is transparent on pouring out.. The texture
is light and smooth, almost like a dry oil and is not at all heavy or sticky. I
have oily to combination skin type and so hence only use 2-3 drops
and massage it onto my face. It sinks into my skin instantly and disappears
without a trace.
My Experience:
Bio-Oil has a
pinkish-orange tone, which turns completely transparent as soon as it comes
outside the bottle. The fragrance is very mild herbal, but not at
all offensive and fades within moments of application. The oil is very light in
weight and its texture is absolutely non-greasy. No matter how dry your skin
is, only a few drops will be enough to moisturize it efficiently. Moreover, it
goes deep into the skin after a little massage (the manual shows how you need
to move your fingertips gently in small circles) without leaving any oily
residue.
Bio Oil is a staple in my beauty stash since the last few weeks. It has helped fade a few scars (wish I was more consistent) It definitely does take longer to see results, but once they are visible you can't ignore this product.
