Bio Oil for sun damaged skin

miamee · 14-11-2012 01:35PM #1

I bought some Bio Oil for the first time yesterday as it was on special in Boots and I have seen it recommended for so many different things. One of the things it says on the pack is that it is good for sun-damaged skin.
I have broken veins on my cheeks which as as a result of sun damage when I was on medication...one of the side effects was sensitivity to sun which I didn't take enough notice of :rolleyes:

So anyway, just wondering if anyone has used it on similar damage and if it had any noticeable results? I have been told on a couple of occasions that the only thing that can get rid if broken veins completely is laser therapy, just wondering if it will even improve the look of them?

Thanks

I use Bio Oil both day and night. It doesn't get rid of broken veins. It might very well ease the redness of them but it doesn't make them go away - which a beauty therapist pointed out to me only recently.

keep using it though, it's a great product for moisturising and evening skin tone. I love it.
