The oil contains the breakthrough ingredient PurCellin Oil, which ensures the targeted delivery of its key ingredient - Vitamins A and E; Lavender, Calendula and Rosemary oils; and Chamomile extract. The PurCellin Oil changes the overall consistency of the formulation, making it light, non-greasy and easily absorbed by the skin. Bio-Oil has been tested to be a non-irritant product for sensitive skin and to be a non-acnegenic and is intended for topical cosmetic application only.

However, some users experienced redness, burning sensation, dryness, irritation, cyst-like acne on face, itching on tummy etc after using the oil. Some users could not see any visible changes in scars or marks. The oil is less effective in moisturizing skin in cold weather and not very suitable for sensitive skin.
