You might think that a moisturising cream is the best way to go when it comes to preventing the signs of ageing, but actually there are more benefits to using an oil on your face instead. Unless you’ve used a facial oil before, it can seem counter intuitive to put an oil onto an area of your body that you normally try to keep shine free (blotting papers we’re looking at you). But if you use a ‘dry oil’ like Bio-Oil you won’t need to worry about creating a greasy appearance. Bio-Oil contains a special ingredient called PurCellin Oil™ which makes it absorb quickly into the skin without leaving a greasy feeling behind. You only need to use a couple of drops massaged into your face as a little goes a long way.

 The best thing about using an oil-for anti-ageing is that it creates a barrier on the skin and will prevent moisture from escaping, unlike water-based cream formulas. Oils are the most similar to the natural skin lubricant, sebum, which means that all the goodness contained within Bio-Oil can get to where it needs to be to have the biggest impact; into the deeper layers of the skin. In particular, Bio-Oil contains vitamin A which is an important anti-ageing ingredient as it helps improve skin’s elasticity, texture and tone, ultimately helping in the fight against wrinkles. In fact, after 12 weeks of use 94% of women showed an improvement in the appearance of their skin on the face (Thomas J. Stephens & Associates, Inc., Texas, United States of America, 2011).

..Since I started using Bio-Oil I have received many compliments from people saying I don’t look my age. I am 62, which I know isn’t old nowadays, but I put it down to Bio-Oil. So I just wanted to say thank you for a useful product which I really love.”
