Can You Use Bio Oil To Stretch Your Ears?

Writer John Campbell

When it comes to stretching my lobes, what oil should I use? We recommend using jojoba oil (try our jojoba oil), vitamin E oil, coconut oil, olive oil, emu oil, and bio oil as a starting point for your ear care. Any of these will soften your earlobes and help them retain the moisture they need to stay hydrated.
