Stevie!
I'm so glad you're back! You are a wealth of information, expertise and experience. Besides, I really like you. For new folks who don't "know" Stevie, be impressed that she hangs out with us little folk here.

Lexy!! I am just glad that I see you on FB . Between you, Sneakers and Ooti, I am very glad you are my friends from VF there. Sometimes it's just a time factor.. I don't even hit FB and twitter everyday.
And thank you for the compliment.. and I am very glad that this is a welcome place because it's great to learn new stuff from you all. (and I do too) :-) xo Stevie |

Just wanted to share this. Thanks to this great site, I found information about acne.org. My son has terrible cystic acne for years and has been doing their regiment for 3 weeks and there is a noticeable improvement. We are thrilled. Thank you all. Also, I wanted to post this notice I got on facebook. They are giving away free kits. I did not order because they ask that only those who really want to try it get the free kit. This organization really has impressed me and my son. Follow this link and thank you all.

I reference these pages A LOT when checking product labels for comedogenic/skin irritating ingredients: http://www.acne.org/messageboard/blo...redients-list/ http://www.acne.org/comedogenic-list.html The first link has a whole section for oils, which is part of why I chose argan oil for the oil cleansing method. I search the page using Crtl+F. FWIW, I just started a new vanicream moisturizer which has 2 comedogenic offenders listed near the top of the ingredient list, but so far my skin hasn't rebelled. For face cleansing, I tried raw honey for several months which was ok but eventually drying and still having the same breakouts (although less inflamed). Now I'm trying the oil cleansing method with castor oil, cold-pressed argan oil & lavender, plus a microfiber washcloth. Sometimes I add raw honey or a homemade scrub powder to the oil. This seems to be working well for the past week. |

Eta: I'm glad it's been working for you for the last week, I'm just curious if over the next month or however long you use your combo how your skin fares. |

I have difficult skin. Very pale, parts oily within a few hours, other parts dry and flaky, easily irritated, breakouts. Oh, and when I workout, my face morphs into a sweaty, splotchy tomato. I don't think there's a remedy for that though. |
