beauty tips with Bio-Oil |

Bio‑Oil is a specialist skincare oil that helps improve the appearance of scars, stretch marks and uneven skin tone. It is also effective for aging and dehydrated skin. Its enhanced formulation, which contains the breakthrough ingredient PurCellin Oil™, also makes it highly effective for numerous other skin concerns, including ageing, dehydrated and sun burnt skin.

I have been using Bio-Oil for as long as I can remember, as it is so versatile and can be used for a lot more than just assisting with the appearance of scars, stretch marks and uneven skin tone. Over the years, I have found it extremely useful and a great addition to my beauty routine…as it can be used for everything from make-up removal to hair conditioning.
