Scars: If you have visible scarring and feel it affects your self-confidence, as over a third(5) of women do, Bio-Oil's unique formulation helps to improve the appearance of scars. It can be used on new (once wound has healed) and old scars such as surgery, accidents, burns, insect bites, scratches and chickenpox.
Stretch Marks: Bio-Oil can be used during pregnancy to help keep skin moisturised and reduce the possibility of stretch marks forming, whilst also helping to improve the appearance of stretch marks gained during periods of rapid weight gain or loss.
Uneven Skin Tone: Bio-Oil can also be used for uneven skin tone, caused by hormonal fluctuations, skin lighteners or excessive sun exposure.
Ageing Skin: Bio-Oil helps smooth and moisturise ageing, sagging and wrinkled skin on both the face and body. Alongside the ingredient, PurCellin Oil, Bio-Oil also includes Vitamin A, which helps improve the skin's elasticity, texture and tone and Vitamin E, which increases the moisture content of the epidermis, making the skin softer, smoother and more supple. Another key ingredient is Chamomile Oil, which has a calming and soothing effect and is particularly beneficial for sensitive skin.
Dehydrated Skin: Bio-Oil helps replenish the skin's natural oils, stripped away by factors such as extreme weather, water with high chemical content, frequent bathing and the drying effects of central heating and air-conditioning. Try massaging into dry patches such as nail cuticles, dry elbows and heels for targeted relief. Bio-Oil is enriched with Vitamin E to protect against dehydration and Vitamin A to keep skin supple and smooth. Bio-Oil skincare expert Kirsty Mawhinney says, 'You can use Bio-Oil all over your body, including on the face, to provide daily protection and to perfect your skin.
