As a huge fan of post bath/shower oils, I thought the dry skin gel would be right up my alley. Turns out that the gel experience is quite different. Different in a good way, since results that came with its use were totally unexpected. I actually didn’t expect it to moisturize my skin the way it has. The gel sank right into my skin and kept it conditioned throughout each day. The extent to which it kept my skin smooth and supple is decent and for that reason I give it a 3. The gel did give a radiant glow but lacked that ‘buttery’ feel creams are known for. So all in all, does the gel deliver on it’s promise to help treat dry skin? Partly. Is this the holy grail of dry skin treatments out there on the market? Unfortunately no. I will say that I did not love the greasy feel it has upon application even though this does go away once the product has been absorbed. On the other hand, I loved it’s pink hue, it’s texture while still in the jar and not necessarily on my skin and that Bio Oil fragrance I’ve grown to know and love. This is one of those products everyone just has to try themselves to see how they get on with it. Our preferences and experiences are too vastly different for one to say that this is the one product every girl must/mustn’t have. The dry skin gel is worth a try for all dry skin sufferers out there! ?

So I've been seeing the @biooil_za Dry skin gel going around and was very excited to try it out when @beauty_bulletin send it and I've been using it for 3 weeks. Here is my thoughts on the @biooil_za Dry skin gel.
Since I have a very dry skin I love that a little goes a long way and very easy to apply on my body. It also has a very silk/velvety texture. Unfortunately it was only able to moisturize my skin for a little while and there after my skin would be ashy and must re-apply again. Also tends to be greasy and the packaging is so cute but doesn't hold the product inside, oil tends to drip if placed side way. Definitely not good for when your traveling as it would be so messy.
I also really lovd the way it feels on my skin right after applying it and realized it feels even better when the skin is lightly damp.

For a product that has the price it does, Bio Oil could invest in a more sustainable way to package their products. I would suggest glass since plastic containers aren't environmentally friendly or sustainable.

The product works to a point. I believe that the more natural the product then the more the product works. ie. Beeswax or Aloe vera is great for the skin and helps for any skin condition.
Bio Oil could simplify their ingredients so that the product has more natural ingredients that consumers can understand and actually pronounce.

I would recommend that people try this product but to also be aware of the negatives.

I was given the Bio-oil Dry Skin Gel to try and I was extremely excited because I suffer from very dry skin as well as eczema. The texture is different to anything else I've tried, being a gel, but it feels great on my skin. The colour and smell is fantastic too. The Gel is great at miosturising and I could feel the difference and it is also great when it comes to patches of eczema. Although I love what it does for my skin, I was limited to using it at night as it left quite an oily residue on my skin and wouldn't be able to go about my business during the day being a bit oily. It's not a deal breaker for me as my skin absorbed all the goodness at night and I remained moisturised.
