I have been searching for a product that will help reduce the appearance of scars and stretch marks on my legs that I hate. I stumbled upon the Bio-Oil Skincare Purcellin Oil on Amazon. Seeing the product is rated 5 stars 4,000 times, I decided to give it a try myself and the following is my take on the oil.
The oil states that it contains the preen gland oil of ducks. It goes on to say that the PurCellin Oil helps the natural botanical extracts in the product to absorb deep beneath the skin’s surface without leaving behind an oily residue. They also go on to add that the proprietary ingredient in this product gives Bio-Oil a light, non-greasy texture. Bio-oil claims to cure stretch marks, suntan, eczema, and scars. That’s what we want. Right? It states that it leaves skin smooth without any kind of damage. Let’s see how true it is below in My experience.
Facts
- Shelf Life : 3 years
- Color: clear transparent
- Fragrance: soothing rosemary smell
My Experience
Due to an imbalance in my weight, I started getting stretch marks which as you know is definitely no fun. There were also mild scars on my knees which only added to my insecurity of wearing beautiful dresses and shorts. I started using bio oil for 6 months(to date) and it did take time for the oil to show its results but they were evident from consistent usage.
I could notice a mere reduction in the appearance of my scars and stretch marks although they did not vanish completely. Nonetheless, I was happy with the results. Perhaps, over another 6 months, I will notice even greater results.
