| Pros | calms skin reduces redness overnight makes crows feet appear less noticeable |
|---|---|
| Cons | none |
| Bottom line | Emu oil should be white and creamy with no odour. If yours has an odour, it is not of good quality. Spend the extra $ for the good stuff. Also, a little goes a long way. Only use a tiny bit at night. My face is never greasy when I go to bed because I massage only a small amount into my skin using my ring finger for my whole face, not just around my eyes. I had redness and peeling from doctor presc. acne medication. The stuff was too harsh for my sensitive skin. My face was raw and tight. I used emu oil for one night and my face was significantly better. Also, after only 2 nights, my active lesions are a lot less "hot". I'm hooked. |

| Pros | Fantastic moisturisation, makes my skin plump and calms down my facial redness and irritated areas of damaged skin. The best product I've ever used for healing my skin! |
|---|---|
| Cons | Smells like a hamster cage (!) although I don't find it smells once applied. It's a bit greasy. |
| Bottom line | I use Emu & Manuka oil from [link removed] and had excellent results in just a few weeks. By no means a miracle cure, but worked better for me than any chemical based product. According to Mezza, Emu oil contains Vitamins A&E, sapogens (skin softners), Omegas 3,6&9, terpines (antiseptic agents)& Oleic Acid (skin regenerator). It's hypo-allergenic (great for my hyper-sensitive skin), anti-inflammatory (I use it after lightbox therapy to calm down any redness) and very moisturising. The Emu oil isn't preventative as such, but the added Manuka oil is 33 times stronger than tea tree oil and both are very calming, whereas tea tree products sting my skin. I apply a thin layer with clean fingers after washing my face, and a thicker layer at night, focussing on heavily damaged areas. I use it under everyday minerals makeup as the powder reduces the shine. Never had a breakout or purging from emu & manuka oil :) |

| Pros | It's a food by-product. Works on keloid scars, but you have to apply daily and stick with it. Age spots fade pretty quick, like within a week Psorisas is gone almost overnight. I used Purple Emu Products. |
|---|---|
| Cons | I really can't think of anything bad |
| Bottom line | Works great and if you get AEA Certified Fully Refined, it does not smell bad. A little goes a long way. Two ounces lasts me a month with daily use. |

I've been using Emu oil for about a month now, and I find that it has helped to fade those red marks, and also heal inflammed, sore pimples. Usually they take about 4-5 days to go away, but I just dab some emu oil on it, and it goes away within 2 days. It's great. The only problem is, it's got a very oily finish...So I tend to use it at night. Other than that, great stuff. Didn't break me out, either.

Emu oil is just great. As well as having acne, I also have super sensitive skin that is very easily irritated. Practically every OTC treatment I have tried either irritates my skin or breaks me out. Emu oil doesn't do much for active acne (although it does have some anti-bacterial properties), but it has lightened my red marks to the point that it looks like I don't have any at all, as well as helping heal a scar I got from a cyst. You do have to use it long term for the real benefits though - won't happen overnight. It's a little expensive for me, but is WAY cheaper than other scar-healing treatments.

I wish I had heard about emu oil a lot sooner. I've been using it for one month and absolutely love it. I'm in my fifties and it has done wonders for my skin. Evens out skin tone, and takes care of the dryness without feeling greasy.

I like emu oil, a lot. The first bonus is it's not toxic like just about everything else is, that's on the shelves. I worry about cancer since everyone around me seems to be getting it. =(
The second great benefit is that it heals any marks. It helps stretch marks. It helps red marks. It heals scabs. And it heals really fast.
I take it with me when I travel in case I have any break outs that need to heal quickly.
Also it does work fine with makeup. You put it on first and then use some powder and creamy cover-up, then you're good for the day. It smooths the makeup and looks natural.
Lastly it leaves your skin feeling soft and looking soft. It is an oil but even with my oily skin it doesnt cause acne, it heals it.

didn't do too much to heal existing pimples, however there was a little improvement in smoothing out discoloration and scarring. very moisturizing and it feels nourishing. i don't think it has many preventative properties.

So far I've found that it helps reduce my breakouts and helps clear up my skin that is already red/broken out. It also has helped keep my skin soft during winter (and I have usually very dry skin).
