Most of us know Bio-Oil as the stretch-mark potion. It’s also touted to reduce the appearance of scars and improve uneven skin tones. But if you thought you knew everything there was to know about Bio-Oil, think again! Here are two ways to boost your beauty routine using this vitamin-enriched product.

Moisturize dehydrated skin. As a model who is always on the go (See Kaki West Pics), it’s hard to keep my skin hydrated and healthy without the use of some great products like Bio-Oil. I use this light and non-greasy oil in the shower to moisturize and hydrate my entire body. It’s also great for extra-dry areas such as elbows, knees, and the soles of your feet. You can also use it at night as a deep moisturizer.

Tame frizzy hair. Having a frizzy hair day? It happens to the best of us, especially on hot and humid days. If you’ve run out of your favorite hair gel or serum, break out the Bio-Oil. While it’s designed for various skin conditions, Bio-Oil works wonders on your hair by taming frizz, calming fly-aways, and moisturizing dry ends. The result is healthy, smooth, shiny hair.
