Question

Does Emu Oil Help Treat Acne Or Does It Affect It..??

Answer 1

Emu oil has been proven in studies to be completely non-irritating, has excellent moisturizing properties and a low incidence of comedogenicity (clog pores)

Acne can be caused by a number of things, such as inflammation of the oil gland, acne bacteria or hormones.

Some people have found that emu oil has lessened the redness and inflammation commonly found with certain types of acne.

I used to suffer from breakouts on my forehead all the time. Using emu oil helps soften and moisturize my skin. I did notice that I experienced less breakouts since using the oil. Try a skin patch test to see how you react to emu oil before applying it to your face. You only need a couple of drops to see results. Emu oil almost identical to the fatty acids found in your skin, so it's unlikely you'll experience negative side effects from it.

Flaxseed oil is another healthy oil that you can use for acne.

Many people have found that taking liquid flaxseed oil improved the appearance of their skin, reduced the puffiness and redness, and resulted in less breakouts.

Good luck with your skin treatment plan...I hope everything works out for you.

i would imagine emu oil will help heal the blemishes, but you have to clean them out first..try the following..
raw unpasteurized apple cider vinegar
to open the pores and loosen dirt and grease from your face turn off the heat from a pan of distilled water, add 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar to a quart of the hot water. drape a towel over the pan and your head to steam clean your pores. take a cotton ball, dip in vinegar and pat over skin to remove loosened dirt. repeat 2 more times. then spray or dab on
chilled vinegar and equal part of distilled water to close your pores and tone your skin. do twice weekly, also can use the chilled vinegar water as a toner 2 times daily.
it is amazing ....
i also drink the vinegar, 1-2 tablespoons in water with honey in the morning..and i use the vinegar water as a toner 2 times daily..

raw unpasturized apple cider vinegar..
the following 2 testimonials can be seen at http://www.earthclinic.com/cures/acne.ht...
Angelina O, has found that applying ACV topically to her face several times a day (4 or more times) has cured her of a "very bad complexion". She reports that she applies it straight and that while it burns her skin a bit, it still works like a miracle!

Cheryl writes, "My daughter developed a case of moderate acne, and after trying a number of different things for over a year which helped very little or not at all, she started drinking 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar three times a day and applying it topically once at night. She has been acne free for two months. It took about three weeks to clear up."
to drink, mix with honey and water or apple juice..

you can get the vinegar at the health food store, or in some super markets.
