One of my biggest problems has always been my skin. I inherited acne, scar prone skin from my skin and it has been a problem since before I even started puberty.  I have gone through cycles of perfect baby smooth skin to severe break outs. There has never been any reason for breakouts they just happen. I got some relief when I started using birth control, but that didn’t help with the oiliness. The amount of money spent on blot papers and powders could buy Steve Harvey his lacefront mustaches for the next ten years.

Desperate for a total solution I started to research the latest in skin technology. My problems weren’t severe enough for prescription meds like that thing Puffy endorses to “preserve his sexy” and I don’t want my children born with mermaid legs so Accutane was out of the question. Over the counter washes tend to contain salicylic acid which can be very drying to the skin. I decided to research all natural skin cleansing methods. Enter the oil cleansing method.

Use oil to cleanse my oily skin you say? Blasphemy! I was beyond skeptical when I first heard about this. I just imagined slathering my skin like I was frying chicken and waking up looking like a connect the dots. I was intrigued by the idea and all of the natural goddesses swore by it so I decided to give it a try. After extensive research on sites such as theoilcleansingmethod.com I decided to try it for myself. I was able to come up with a mixture suited to my individual problems. 

                It takes a lot of trial and error to find the right balance of each oil to determine which will work for you. I am completely satisfied with the results. They don’t happen over nigh but after six weeks of using this combination my skin has completely changed. No more break outs, no oiliness, and no need for moisturizer. Even my scars have started to heal. I swear by this now and will never buy another over the counter product again. You simply coat your face and then rinse with steaming hot water to open your pores and a final cold rinse to close them. You can feel the impurities leaving your skin without any of the tightness that regular washes can cause. If you plan on trying this understand that it is a little pricey and will take time. The end result makes up for all of that though.
