Description:
This moisturising gel from Bio-Oil delivers lightweight hydration for dry and tight skin, absorbing quickly to leave skin feeling softer without a heavy residue. As a gel moisturiser for dry skin it combines vitamins and essential oils to help skin retain moisture, according to the manufacturer.
Key Points
This product is presented as a topical gel for both body and face, formulated to be fast absorbing and low in water content, which means you typically need less product than a cream. The texture is jelly-like yet non-greasy, so it can sit comfortably within a daily skincare routine and under moisturisers or makeup when required. 😊
The formula has been clinically tested and, according to a user study cited by the manufacturer, 86% of participants experienced improvement in dry skin after two weeks, with 82% noticing a difference within two days. Consider that these figures are reported by the manufacturer and individual results may vary.
Benefits
The gel contains vitamins and a blend of essential oils that aim to support the skin’s moisture barrier and leave a smoother surface. For those who dislike heavy creams, the fast-absorbing feel offers a lighter alternative while still delivering targeted hydration. The minimal water content helps reduce dilution of active ingredients and may assist with longer-lasting moisturisation. 🌿
Suitable for sensitive skin, the formulation is described as gentle enough for facial application as well as for use on the body. Because only a small amount is needed, the packaging size can last longer than one might expect when used sparingly.

Apply a small amount to dry areas and massage in a circular motion until absorbed. Because the gel is concentrated, less product is needed than with standard lotions.
