Bio oil?

Bad stretch marks and while moisturiser is helping, bio oil seems to work better for me.

I'd like to buy a large bottle, but Boots is quite expensive - and I'm a bit wary of random chemists on the Internet.

Help?

Have you tried baby oil? Worked just as good on wet skin for me!

Using baby oil at the mo, and it's not quite doing the job as bio oil did.

I think they have this in home bargains

Costco x

Amazon!

Bio oil has a lot of mineral oil in it - can you find the ingredients list? I bet the active oils are what helps - the plant ones - and big bottles of plant oils are very cheap on amazon or eBay.

Right it looks as though it has 2 vitamin oils which will be what helps your skin - A and E.

[[http://www.bio-oil.com/en/product/ingredients ingredients here (look at all those petro chems!)

I'd buy a bottle of vitamin E oil, I can't think of a fit A oil... Unless you fancy rubbing yourself with fish oil?! I'm sure another mnetter will know. I'd have thought that the vit E oil will be what's helping your skin.

I buy mine from lloyds pharmacy as quite often they run a half price bio oil promotion and I stock up. Keep an eye out they usually advertise it when it is on in national press but also keep an eye on their website

how much is it usually? TJ Hughes has it: www.tjhughes.co.uk/fcp/product/brands-for-less//Bio-Oil/76

Aldi do a version too don't they?

I didn't rate it though, wasn't quite enough, prefer mama bee if splashing out or coconut oil from health food shop

Can't help with the Bio oil question (sorry!), but I thought I'd share what I used to get rid of my stretchmarks from DC1 - the Therapy massage bar from Lush.

It really helped my skin go back to its normal state, and I used it all through my second pregnancy and didn't get any new marks. It's £6.50 and lasts ages

Tk maxx had some in a few weeks ago very cheap. Might not still have it, but worth a look.

Wilkinsons well it too, I think. Or try Amazon (which tend to be cheapest for most things!)
