Like most people,I was heavily skeptical about putting oil on my skin when it seems like it should be the last thing you should be doing when you have any form of acne. However,my skin was getting really dry and irratted from the BP and I wanted something I could easily add to a moisturizer I already knew wouldn't break me out. I also didn't feel like waiting to order online,so I went to Target hoping to find something local. Luckily,I came across this nourishing oil from the Boots Botanics line.Unlike the Acne.Org suggested jojoba oils,this brand also has a few other oils blended into it,such as Bergamont,Rose,Citrus,and a few other flower-based oils.I wasn't sure if these were going to cause an issue,but I went ahead and purchased it anyways just to give it a try.

The bottle it comes in is glass,however,so it doesn't have an easy dispense spout like the acne.org bottle does.I've found that using mini travel bottles with droppers does the trick just fine,and mak
