Pros:

My daughter has been using lavender, bergamot and geranium oil, mixed with a carrier oil, from a natural therapeutist, so far so good. It slows the oil production by normalising the hormones in the skin and stops new spots forming.

Cons:

It takes a couple of weeks to work but you can see it working, slowly.

definitely worth a try. My daughter is much happier. She had tried virtually everything and this is the only thing that has worked.

Pros:

Works fast, easy to use, natural, afordable

Cons:

a little drying but your acne is gone so who cares?

Clears pimples and scars amazingly fast! I've been using it every day for about 2 weeks and all my scars and pimples are well on their way to being history! It's the best thing I've ever used and I've used tons of creams and washes both cheap and expensive. I spent over 20 $ on a small tube of vichy cream to get rid of pimples and now I realize that was a waste, lavender works 5 times better and its natural! Use this and egg whites to clear your face! Also mix a few drops of lavender into your egg white and into whatever lotion you use on your face for amazing results. Oh, and if you're a guy like me only use it when you plan on staying in otherwise you'll smell strongly of lavender, use before bed for better looking skin every morning!

Pros:

Absolutely amazing. I stopped washing my face for a while and every time I used any topicals, they would just make my face worse. But lavender oil is the only thing I have tried that actually improves my skin.

Cons:

Strong smell. But the smell fades after a few minutes.

Definitely worth a try for any one who uses a basic, natural skin care regimen. I bought a bottle for 6 bucks a few months ago and it is about 1/4 full yet. Definitely the cheapest, best working face product. Great for your entire face (not eyes) and spot treatments. Make sure you by pure, organic lavender oil!!!!

Pros:

Only used for 2 days so far, and its amazing. On the first day, all my pimples came to a head. I was able to just lightly squeeze all the puss out. This stuff works AMAZINGLY! Plus i had the best sleep of my life, i think its that wonderful smell.

Cons:

I always found it wierd that putting OIL on my skin would cure my acne, especially since i HAVE oily skin to begin with. But im so glad I tried this essential oil. No cons!

USE IT! I dilute mine with jojoba oil. 2 drops of lavender oil and 3-5 drops of jojoba oil for my entire face! that's all! I only put it on once before i go to bed and the next morning, my skin feels smoother and looks healthier. I don't know what this oil is doing, but whatever it is it's working!

Pros:

Reduces redness, kills inflammation, basically zaps your zits. Someone else put that this zaps zits better than bp - they're right! if you have an open zit, put this in it and let it dry. Works like gangbusters.

Cons:

I've read that it can cause photosensitivity. I've not experienced dryness from my usage (and I'm slathering it all over, undiluted, so know what to expect from your skin)

This is by far the best thing I've found for my acne. I'm well on my way to clear now and it's been two weeks. If you would have told me two weeks ago that lavender oil would be able to do this, I would have laughed at you. I've had mild acne that decided to upgrade itself to moderate within the last two years (I'm 21 now). I went to work on it with BP, salicylic acid, various moisturizers, including cetaphil and aloe vera. alpha hydroxy acids, organic honey, you name it. (oh and aspirin masks and egg whites) This is the secret. Folks, it works better than honey + BP (blashphemy...lol). All I can say is get it get it get it. I wash my face at night and put this on and some AHA on for good measure. Every morning my skin looks better. I could actually have a shot at being completely clear in another few weeks or so (few more bumps on my cheeks and some redness there as well...)

Pros:

Takes redness away within 5 mins, anit-bacteria and anti-inflammatory. Helps heal scars. Dries up pimples in a night sometimes! It's hardly "oily" - put it on slightly dmap skin so it soaks in if worried.

Cons:

None. Well can be drying but only slightly and not really on anywhere but the pimples wihich is what you want dried up.

Only thing I've found that I put on a pimple i picked :S and it dried it up (no pus came back as it usually does). Not only dried it up but took the inflammation away completely. The small scab peeled off in a couple of days and left perfect unscarred skin underneath.

Pros:

It worked wonders. It keeps my skin clear and is worth the price. You also aren't pumping your skin with chemicals like over-the-counter products.

Cons:

Doesn't work on all skin types.

It works great.

Pros:

Smells great, easy to use, natural healing oil, no side effects, cheap (£5)- it lasts forever...well not forever but for a long time. Oh and it is a natural insect repellant.

Cons:

If used neat it could burn the skin or cause dryness, if you have sensitive skin like mine. Mix with a carrier oil like coconut or almond = no problems.

Its worth a shot. Try it, what have you got to loose...! It feels soothing and very calming on skin. Prevents acne as well as fighting existing acne. does not clog pores or cause rashes (unless used neat on sensitive skin) best thing to do is 1 drop of lavender oil with 5 drops of coconut/almond oil....use as face cream twice a day. Non greesy aswel!

Pros:

Its so great, helps me sleep, clear my acne overnight. In one week, they will be gone I'm sure. I love it.

Cons:

None

I purchased my at Fred Meyer for $10. Its in organic section. Its so worth it. It kills acne so fast, I can't believe. it. I already tried numerous products, you name it, I will tell you the process I used that product. Everything, either they work very little or not at all and have to wait long time. Lavender oil is the best!. You should definitely try for your acne, you will be very glad.
