Pros:

Calms my irritated and peeling skin better than anything.

Cons:

The main ingredient is oleic Acid, which is a known comedogen. IT DOES CLOG POURS!! do not use if you have oilly skin.

IT DOES CLOG POURS!!! The main ingredient is Oleic acid which is a known comedogen. That being said, I use it only becuase I use retin-A 0.1% at night and in the morning emu oil is the only thing that can stop the intense peeling. If i didnt use retina i wouldnt use emu oil, becuase it can clog pours. Do not listen to the crack pots about it not causing acne, cause it can if you already have oilly type skin. Dry skin types it might help. However, if you use it for reasons like i use it then its the best thing out there to calm irritated and peeling skin. It does have antibacterial properties, cause it contains linoleic acid as well(which is why dry skin types with acne could benifit), I actually used it once for athletes foot and it worked really really well.

Pros:

it is great for my legs after I shave, whitch I usually itch at and cause scars when the hair grows back slowly, it is great on my scalp at night, I have psoiasis, and for acne, use very little or else it will be greasy, but it does help the scars!

Cons:

it smells like chicken fat, you can add oil scent but not if sensitive, it is an oil so dont use too much!

I thought at first oil is not for acne oily face....but then someone told me that we wash our face and if you dont use a mousturizer after, that your face will overproduce oil because you have dreid it out when washing. and then you have oily skin. so knowing you need to mousturize with non- por clogging non-bacterial spreading mousturizer, I tried it! I love it. if you use a little it isnt greasy on my face. I apply makeup like normal. it is great for use all over my body, scalp to toes. I recommend it for many issues...mostly scarring and itchyness that would otherwise need cortazon or whatever they give you for rashes/itch/bug bites ect.

Pros:

No more dry skin, Lightens red marks, Doesn't add to more pimples

Cons:

Can only be used at night because it can look a tiny bit greasy. But that's all.

I have horrible acne. It just suddenly went crazy about 3 months ago. I tried every thing and nothing works. My skin gets really irritated with strong facial cleansers such as apricot scrub or neutrogena advanced solutions. I got a lot of under the skin pimples that were very painful. I had blue-emu lotion because i'm an athlete and it helps my soreness and i read that it can help scarring and inflamed pimples so I started using at night time. It makes my skin softer and my nodule acne seems to heal quicker and come back less. It's amazing. No lotion ever works on me, and with this stuff I have absolutely no peeling are dryness.

Pros:

really works, natural, no chemicals

Cons:

quite greasy. funky wet dog smell when in the bottle

I used emu oil after my face was burnt by the spatter of hot oil and my face healed with not a single scar. great moisturizing, great for sunburn and for reversing early signs of aging. unless you have dry skin or live in an arid climate, best to use it only at night

Non-irritating, moisturizes well, smooths out fine lines, diminishes undereye circles, heals skin injuries and scars, makes your skin glow

Cons:

The price.

When I used this my acne basically disappeared completely. It also got rid of the purpleness under my eyes and healed a chicken pock scar that I've had since I was 8 (I'm 24).

Pros:

Very good moisturiser, good for the complexion, gets rid of red marks

Cons:

Smells bad, Feels really oily

Very good product, just dont put it on in the morning or people will think you are sweating really badly, put it on every night.

Pros:

Reduces blemishes and redness

Cons:

Made my face dry for a few days, but it went away.

I wasn't sure if it would work. I have a lot of scarring from previous acne and I've pretty much tried everything! But I bought it anyway and I really like it. The redness in my face is going away and what acne I had when I first started using it is barely there. I have only had this product for a week but it seems to be doing the job. I will continue to use it and hopefully it keeps getting better and better. I bought the emu oil as well as the soap and moisturizing cream, that's why the price is a little higher.

Pros:

It faded some of my spots really fast (And by spots I mean marks leftover from acne).

Cons:

Didn't seem to help my existing acne...and didn't seem to prevent it either... So I still got pimples.

I noticed an improvement within a week.....Some marks afeded faster than other....and I guess thy are still fading... I worse it twice a day, in the morning/night. Seemed to help... I'll still have to get laser, but its helped.
