A member asked:

Is bio-oil non-comedegenic? also, will it cause breakouts?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: I would try using on a small patch of skin for 48 hours. If no allergy then try applying to face. Some people rave about the product and some people are allergic to components in the oil.
