i'm thinking about trying out the oil cleansing method for my face and i just wanted to know if it has worked for anyone else and what you thought about it.
i have combination skin with a supersupersuper oily nose.
has anyone tried this? what do you think?
i would start with 60% castor oil and 50% extra virgin olive oil.Does the oil cleansing method for faces work?
Yes it does work, if you use washes or soaps to wash with these strip your skin of it's natural oils so the skin has to overcompensate to make up for what it looses when you wash. With OCM because you're using oil it means your skin doesn't have to produce that extra oil any more, and because of the types of oils used they whatever traces of oil are left on the skin after cleansing will be absorbed into the skin so help prevent excessive oil production. That's the whole point of OCM, oil is good for your skin, unless you have so much that it sits on your skin collecting dirt and bacteria which leads to spots, OCM balances out your skin so it doesn't get overly oily thus why it works to prevent acne, dry skin and oily skin.
Prior to using OCM I had bad acne on my chin, flaking skin on my nose and forehead, and VERY oily skin particularly around my chin and nose - as well as not having acne anymore or flaking skin my skin isn't oily either. I noticed this about a week after I started using OCM after a shopping trip on a hot day, when my nose would normally have been swimming in oil, I found my nose wasn't at all oily instead it was soft as a babies bottom :-)
It's a good basic mix to start with - I started with 50% castor oil and 50% extra virgin olive oil, and pretty much stuck to that - I tried 100% jojoba oil once as this is closer to skins natural oils, but it became too heavy in the hot weather so went back to the old mix. See how it works out for you, experiment with different oils, grapeseed oil might be one to try if the castor oil and olive oil mix doesn't work out for you, but with that said I don't see why it wouldn't. Good luck!Does the oil cleansing method for faces work?
no Ive use the oil method it doesn't work for oily skin just for dry skin your just going to make your skin worst so stick with a gel base cleanser is great for oily complexion you dont need more oil on your skin you already have it now
