Oil Cleansing Method Challenge

A little off the subject of parenting but also along the lines of organic :)


First of all, I am in no way trying to endorse any kind of product nor am I selling anything.  I just felt the need to share my story and experience with other people who might be interested in trying something different and natural in a world full of products that are not even remotely natural and contain mostly chemicals....

Okay, so I have never really had what you would call "pretty skin".  I have struggled with blemishes ever since puberty.  I noticed that after 3 years of working in a restaurant, my skin was at it's worst.  Then, I got pregnant and for reasons unknown, my skin was almost instantly beautiful.  Pregnancy did wonders for my skin and hair and I didn't have a single blemish until a couple of months after I stopped breastfeeding!

After that, my skin went back to being awful.  I tried everything you can think of as far as face wash/moisturizer goes.  After washing my face, I found that my skin was either greasy or extremely dry.  It seemed like I had to either have dry itchy skin or greasy oily skin.  Either way, I was still getting tons of blemishes.  Then, my mother-in-law mentioned something called the Oil Cleansing Method.  I was very interested but also a little repulsed at the idea of putting oil on my skin.  It seemed almost ridiculous to add more oil to an already oily face.  But then, I figured, nothing else has worked, why not!!!  After the first time of doing this, my skin looked absolutely radiant! I kid you not! I could not believe my eyes! Not only did it look good, but it felt like baby skin!!  I also noticed my skin had a sort of glow to it similar to a glow you would get after working out.  Seriously though, I highly recommend this to any man or woman looking to get healthy, beautiful skin for next to nothing!!  Not only that, but you know EXACTLY what you're putting on your skin as there are only one or two ingredients in this method and its 100% natural and good for your skin !!   In most cases, you won't even need a moisturizer!   Please don't shun this idea at first...Give it a try!  I promise you will be happy with the face you will see in the mirror.  I guess God knew what he was doing when he made oils!

Also, here's a link of an article I read about the oldest woman in the world and her secret to her longevity and young looking skin at her old age of 122 :)  Super interesting! (See the header titled Calment's Secret to Longevity) http://anson.ucdavis.edu/~wang/calment.html
