PurCellin Oil allows for targeted absorption into the skin. View larger. View complete list of ingredients. | Specially Formulated With PurCellin Oil Bio-Oil includes the breakthrough ingredient PurCellin Oil, a recreation of the preen gland oil of ducks. During preening, a duck secretes oil from its preen gland and distributes it over its entire plumage in the familiar twisted-neck action that one often associates with ducks. This oil creates a thin, non-greasy layer on the surface of the feathers without which water would not pearl off and the bird would struggle to swim. This ingredient acts as a delivery system for Bio-Oil's other ingredients, improving spreadability and allowing for targeted absorption into the skin. Also, because oil contains no oxygen, it provides an exceptional storage environment for vitamins. Bio-Oil includes many beneficial skin ingredients such as Vitamin A, Vitamin E, calendula oil, lavender oil, rosemary oil, and chamomile oil. This mix of plant oils and vitamins has been clinically shown to be beneficial to the skin. Effective on Scars and Stretch Marks Bio-Oil helps improve the appearance of all types of scars and is also highly effective in helping maintain elasticity of scar tissue on joints and other high-mobility areas, including stretch marks. Ideal for pregnant women, particularly in their second and third trimesters, Bio-Oil is the product most recommended by UK pharmacists to help reduce the appearance of scars, stretch marks, and pregnancy stretch marks. Great for Skin Tone and Dry Skin Bio-Oil helps improve the appearance of uneven skin tone caused by excessive sun, hormonal fluctuations, or skin-lighteners. Sagging and wrinkled skin that is associated with aging also benefits from Bio-Oil. Much wrinkled and sagging skin is caused by the weakening of the collagen and elastin support system in the dermis. Bio-Oil helps soften and smooth the skin, making it more supple and reducing the appearance of wrinkles. Bio-Oil also does a wonderful job at moisturizing and has sufficient moisturizing properties so as to render an additional moisturizer unnecessary. Non-Acnegenic and Hypo-Allergenic Bio-Oil is a non-acnegenic and hypo-allergenic product, meaning it has a decreased tendency to cause allergies and acne, and it is safe for use on sensitive skin.

didn't work for me but perhaps it will for you. July 23, 2010 bacardistuff (Dayton, Ohio) I have no idea what made me think this product would work on my scar. The scar is still there but the acne produced by the oil is incredible. I'm talking big, red, bumps filled with pus. God, I hate it. I'll keep using the bio though since it seems to work for others who stick with it. Wish I could do something about the pimples though.
Bio Oil, great find! July 21, 2010 C. PENN PENN (Seattle WA) I read about Bio Oil on a different site and started looking for more info, which led me to Amazon. This is a great liquid moisturizer, especially for your body! Its suppose to be good for stretch marks as well, but I havent seen any difference in that area yet though. A little goes a long way, so though the bottle is small, it should last you for a while.
WOW! It really does work! July 20, 2010 Rebecca Kelly (NEW YORK) It's only been a week and I am seeing results in 5 year old stretch marks (lovingly given to me by my 5 year old)! They are fading to a normal skin tone and filing in. I also have been putting it on years old mosquito bite scars that had formed hard lumps on my thighs and they are shrinking and fading! This is a miracle potion!
Excellent moisturizer July 10, 2010 BeeCee (Ft Worth,Tx) I ordered Bio-Oil, 2-Ounce Bottle about 3-4 months ago and still have more than half a bottle of the product. Economical, unlike some products I have priced. I believe it is available on Subscribe & Save. I will be setting up a S & S for this product as soon a I see how long it lasts. It is a very light oil that spreads easily on your skin. A small amount goes a long way. The "oiliness" seems to be absorbed rather quickly (just 2-3 minutes)so that you aren't left feeling greasy. I have noticed a smoothing and softening of my skin & a more even skin tone. I have one age spot on my right hand and that has faded quite a bit, but can still be seen. I only use the oil once a day and am quite satisfied with the results. (Twice a day is recommended.) If it came with sun screen I would use it twice a day. Am getting pleasing results with bedtime application. I live in Texas and can't stand a heavy cream or oil on my face in the summer months. Bio-Oil does not leave my face plastered to my pillowcase at night. Good on hands and feet, too. Softens callouses. Has a pleasant, light fragrance. I would recommend this product to others, especially 50-somethings like myself-- and older.
Satisfied with product for hypertonic scar June 25, 2010 Laura I have been using Bio-oil for about a week on a 2 in hypertonic & very red/raised scar. Just in one week I have noticed the swelling is reduced, the redness is fading and the skin in much smoother. I apply the product 2 times a day. the bottle recommends 3 months for full healing, and I have high hopes for this to work. I have tried several other scar-reduction therapies and none have seem to give results even close to this. I might try using Bio-oil on several other scars.
