I’m sure many of us have heard of Bio-Oil — a prominent brand in the skincare industry. Just recently though, the company released its latest product setting its eyes on combating dry skin this time around. Needless to say, Malaysians were pretty hyped up about the news seeing that dry skin is common no thanks to our hot and humid weather.
Speaking to WORLD OF BUZZ, Charlotte, having used Bio-Oil in the past shared with us her excitement over the brand’s latest invention, saying: “Bio-Oil reduced visible scars on my leg post-surgery. Not only is it effective, but it also feels good on the skin as it’s not greasy. I’m hopeful their latest invention will live up to the expectations of many.” On top of that, other users have commented that they are eager to see how this product fares compared to others.
Three decades into the making, the company’s latest addition Bio-Oil Dry Skin Gel, promises to be a valuable alternative to existing products in the market. Curious to know more? Here’s everything you should know about it:
It’s a better alternative to creams, body lotions and body butters

It’s a common misconception that water (usually 70%) contained in products such as creams, body lotions, and body butters help moisturise skin. In actual fact, water evaporates when it comes in contact with your skin, hence the cooling sensation you feel when you apply creams and lotions. This basically means water is an inactive ingredient when it comes to treating dry skin.
What’s great about Bio-Oil Dry Skin Gel is that it contains only 3% water, replacing much of the inactive water in other dry skin products with oil — thus making it highly effective in treating dry skin.
It’s also suitable for sensitive skin!

What’s also great about Bio-Oil Dry Skin Gel is that it’s clinically tested to be suitable for sensitive skin and is non-comedogenic. Basically, this means you’d have less to worry about it damaging the skin. In addition, using Bio-Oil will not clog the pores, making it safe to be used on the face and body!
Applying it is super easy, convenient, and economical

The gel also gives off the same pleasant smell that those who’ve used Bio-Oil on scars and stretch marks will be familiar with. What’s more, it glides on the skin smoothly and does not need to be rubbed in like a lot of creams and lotions.
It’s clinically- and user-tested
