My skin is hydrated, but it didn't help with my acne
I have Asian skin and I live in a tropical, so, humid and hot as f, country! I've been using the OCM at night with extra virgin olive oil for the last 2 weeks. It didn't give me any breakouts and my skin is SO MOISTURIZED I WANNA LICK IT. Buuuuut didn't improve my acne at all. I keep getting here and there cysts and whiteheads, where I use 8% BP right on them, as usual. Here's my routine:
- Gently rub the oil on my face with motions similar to Tanaka Massage (look on yt, I love it!);
- Leave it for about 10 min on my face;
- Moinsten a towel with water, squeeze it, and put in on the microwave for 30 secs;
- GENTLY AS I'M BATHING A NEW BORN, rub it on my face, taking off the oil that has been on my face throughout the day;
- Now, I just leave it like this until it's time to go to bed - then, I put some apple cider vinegar solution on my face;
- Put BP on those annoying bastards;
- Sleep.
I've seen many people who had terrible breakouts with this regime, so I highly recommend you to inform yourself before doing it (I wouldn't recommend coconut oil - seem like a lot of folks broke bad with it). I like it, but I won't guarantee it will do the same good to you... Unfortunatelly, having acne is attempting to do new stuff everyday so we can find the cause of it, right?
