| Pros: | Super soft skin, helped reduce inflammation, long lasting effects |
| Cons: | None |
| Bottom Line: | I just started using emu oil, and I am quite pleased! I am 37 years old, and had always had beautiful skin until I had kids.... now I have what they call "adult acne" (!?) I've also noticed that the older I get, the more dry my skin becomes. But with emu oil, I apply it at night ( around 8pm ) and well into the next day ( it's around 1:30pm) my skin feels super soft, and NOT AT ALL oily. And it doesn't aggravate my "adult acne". In fact, they seem to be getting smaller, and less irritated. I also like how it soothes and diminishes the red splotches I get on my face after I take a shower. I realize that this product may not work for everyone, but I am definitely pleased. I buy emu oil that is Triple-Distilled and Molecularly Distilled, so it is less oily, less thick, and not smelly. It is a little more expensive, but well worth it! A small bottle lasts a few months, because a little DOES go a long way!! I wish I had known about this product sooner!! :) |

| Pros: | fades burn marks |
| Cons: | irritated my face and made me break out |
| Bottom Line: | I mixed this with shea butter (shea butter works great for me) and decided to use it on my face and body. While this worked great on my body and faded burn marks that I had for over 25 years (I can hardly see them), this irritated my face. It made my face itchy and acne began to appear. When I stopped using the emu oil on my face, my face cleared up. I will continue to use it on my body though and highly recommend it for that. |

| Pros: | May help reduce scarring. |
| Cons: | Gave me acne, Has a weird smell, strange texture, Blocks Pores. |
| Bottom Line: | So I have heard that Emu Oil works wonders with scarring. I think it does. But it also blocks pores and gave me acne. The best way to use this product is with accutane or roaccutane.
I am going to be put on roaccutane soon, so I will return and give a review while im on the medication.
Until then : ) |

| Pros: | Does not clog pores, heals readness and scarring quickly |
| Cons: | Oily texture, feels somewhat greasy on your face. |
| Bottom Line: | It helped get rid of ALL acne and scarring on my forehead and nose. I use it everynight before bedtime, and in the morning I wake up with no red marks! I used to have horrible acne on my forehead which left really bad scars, but after using the emu oil for about a month both the acne and the scars were gone. I am so glad my mom told me about this. This is an amazing product! |

| Pros: | Softens skin, clears pimples, removes hyperpigmentation/dark spots; essentially, makes skin look younger and it seems to GLOW!! |
| Cons: | Can only use it at home (when I'm not going out or applying make-up) as it is somewhat greasy (duh it's an oil!!) |
| Bottom Line: | For those of you with oily, acne-prone (for me, I call it my Italian-genes skin) skin, please do not be afraid to try this. I have had problems with pimples, blackheads, whiteheads since I was a child (I am now 29) and I know how easy it is for our skin to get these things with products that leave the skin feeling even a little bit greasy (I've used sooo many products that cause blackheads all over, while others claim the product does not cause breakouts). However, I decided to give Emu oil a shot since I didn't have any big plans to go out over the next few weeks and WOW is all I can say! This stuff, even though my face feels greasy as ever while it's on, erased the pimples I had overnight, made the dry areas under my eyes and around my mouth disappear, and best of all- areas where I have problem dark spots (on which I've tried numerous expensive products) are fading like magic. I am a big time pimple picker and have those deep purple spots and they're almost gone on day 3 of Emu Oil! |

| Pros: | Clears skin (some pimples overnight), non-drying, moisturizing, fades scars |
| Cons: | NONE |
| Bottom Line: | I have had acne since high school and NOTHING worked. I've been on Accutane, creams, washes, pills, etc...Emu oil is AMAZING! Someone gave it to me for it's healing purposes and i havem in turn, given it to my sisters to use - they're clearing up too :) I don't care that it's oil, b/c it's not clogging like any other product and the fact that it comes from an animal doesn't bother me either. i'd do anything for clear skin! try it - you have nothing to lose! it's fabulous! |

| Pros: | After shaving my face I apply alittle and my skin is sooo smooth and soft and helps alot with razor burns. I also think its working for my receding hair line :) |
| Cons: | none yet |
| Bottom Line: | Its all natural so your not adding chemicals and other man made stuff to your skin which i think leads to cancer. There is a reason why people have been using it for thousands of years |

| Pros: | clears acne from the inside and outside. Heals skin. |
| Cons: | If use the 100% oil it will be a little oily at first |
| Bottom Line: | I'm 37 and have had acne since I was 11. I have had very oily skin. Tried everything from over the counter to presciption. Some things worked as a short term solution. 7 months ago I got on to emu oil products from a friend who used it for various things. I used the one product first on a bad burn and was sold. I got on to the website this product came from and saw a whole line of products. [link removed] For acne they have a facial soap made just for acne. Plus I take the emu oil fatty acid complete internally. At night I use the rejuvination cream since I have damaged skin from ranching and living in high altitude and during the day the "new day" (plus use Neuregena 85 spf sun screen). One day I didnt put on the new day and noticed the dirt was getting into my pores. So this cream acts as a barrier. Diffentally worth the look at the website to try. Oh and my oily skin is gone also and sun spots - bye bye. I'm completely sold on all thier things. |

| Pros: | effective and No bad reaction to skin |
| Cons: | small amount is expensive, Takes a while to see noticeable difference |
| Bottom Line: | I'm not sure if it fades a way my acne scars yet. I have only been using it for two weeks. However, I haven't had muy usual cystic breakouts. I get the occasional tiny pimple from eating junk but it does work. I use it after I watch with tea tree/shea butter body wash. I use emu oil in the morning or before bed and sometimes swtich it up with 10% benzoyle peroxide which is also a lifesaver. Defitely a great moisturizer after usuing bp. |
