Bio Oil does it really work?

Ok I usually have relatively strong will power and do not easily get suckered in by those TV ads. Lately I noticed the Bio Oil commercial on a lot.
I have really bad stretch marks around my thighs, butt and the lower back. I get very self conscious each time I wear a bathing suit. I've had these since puberty. So of course every time the Bio Oil commercial comes up, I hear this little voice in my head "Gee, maybe I should try that."
Finally today I gave in when I saw it on sale for $10.99 at Walmart. Who can resist a sale...
The Bio Oil website says it supposedly works wonders if applied 2x a day for a period of 3 months.
Today is Day 1.

Here's a picture of my stretch mark ladened thigh. Bio Oil states that stretch marks will never go away but will become less noticeable.


The box says it's "non-greasy and rapidly absorbed". Well that's not really true. It is in fact greasy. Feels like I just smothered myself in baby oil. I was also going to try it on my face since the website says Bio Oil helps improve uneven skin tone (which I'm pretty sure a lot of women have), and combats aging and dehydratin (again which I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one searching for a miracle solution). But it feels a little bit too greasy to go on my face.
