The Oil Cleansing Method For Acne

October 30, 2018 by Leave a Comment

If someone had told me a few years ago that I should use oil to clean my face I would have looked at them as if they had gone crazy. For me at the time telling someone with acne to use oil on their face for whatever reason is like telling someone to put out a fire with gasoline.

The Oil Cleansing Method has been popular for a while now. I was never aware though, of the benefits of the oil cleansing method for acne and acne prone skin.

A few years back it became clear to me that my face wash was not doing me any good. I used to dread using it. After washing my face would be so tight that I would get scared to smile or talk. It would burn and sting. And this was the mildest face wash I had ever used.

Whenever I mention the Oil Cleansing Method or OCM I get a little bit of a push back and fear from my readers. Which is totally understandable. When you have acne you are warned that putting oil on your face does more harm than good.

Also with oil you are never sure how it is going to react with your skin. So I generally suggest that anyone with mild to severe acne hold off until their acne is healed to try OCM.

So what do you use in the meantime? If you do not want to use OCM and using a normal face wash dries out your skin, what is your alternative? Enter the Honey Cleansing Method.

Doesn’t everyone have an opinion on your acne? Whether it’s a cure they got from somewhere in their tiny brains. Or something they just made up on the spot while talking to you. People certainly have their version of home remedies for acne.

I once had a very unkempt man come up to me in a book store and tell me to apply a paste of soap on my face at night. And leave the paste overnight while I slept. He even told me where I could get the soap, bless him. How nice! Free advice that I did not ask. Let me rephrase that – free dumb advice that I did not ask for!!! I would probably wake up the next day with a disaster on my hands were I to try that.
