Hi, so my skin in general is somewhat oily already but not smooth and areas where i may have scratched (i know shame on me) did not heal well. When i tried Vitamin E they did heal better, my skin is feeling more smooth but im getting some angry red spots but they are in the usual areas where stuff is already going on and they also heal kind of quicker than before. Is this some kind of purging effect getting all the stuff out, should i stick with Vitamin E? Or am i really producing way too much sebum now. (For reference, its not that much that my skin turns into a mirror because of oil)

It's definitely purging since it's areas where you've had spots before.

Thanks! Definitely feeling that its more smooth, less little bumps already too, will stick with it and report.
