Bio oil Vs Organic rosehip

I have religiously been using bio oil as suggested twice a day & have noticed the fine lines under my eyes have got worse :(

When i used Organic Rosehip oil cold pressed (not rosehip seed-think there is a difference), these lines "disappeared" overnight. Not forever (that would be a miracle!!) but def the rosehip have kept them really small lines - until now :(

Hey ho, looks like i am back to the nightly rosehip ritual!.

HTH :)

    If the lines are appearing and disappearing that quickly part of the problem is your skin's ability to hold water. Try using products containing the humectants and lipids naturally found in a healthy skin barrier: cholesterol, long chain saturates (stearic and palmitic acid), ceramides, urea, lactic acid and glycosaminoglycans. Also be sure you are getting plenty of long chain omega-3s and other essential fatty acids in your diet. Finally ensure your cleansing routine is super gentle and is not leaving any residue, limit foaming agents or thick ointments.

    Have more water in my body then i need tbh!.

    Just a simple observation for me, bio oil used 2 x a day for 3 months = eye lines increased/spread under the eyes.

    Organic rosehip oil x 1 overnight = lines are plumped out & so far have kept the forehead, side of my mouth, between the eyes away lines under control.

    Just saying i think i fell for the reviews for the bio oil & didn't work for me simples!

    Ps i actually have a collagen/tissue connective disorder so can do with all the help i can potion wise lol.
