Those of you who are doing OCM but not getting any grits....

Beauty Tips For Body Care
ADD MORE CASTOR OIL TO YOUR OCM MIX!!I've been doing OCM for almost a year now and never, ever managed to get grits....until last night. I did so many things. Tried switching to mineral oil. Tried adding hemp oil. I did OCM, washed it off with a foaming wash, and did OCM again. I used a microfiber cloth. I massaged and massaged and massaged my face and nose, never over five minutes, but you get the point.I finally gave in to the idea that I was never going to get grits. Maybe the grits I saw online were idk mascara, not really...grits. Maybe it was dead skin. Maybe I didn't have any. I gave up and was making a new batch of oil last night when I saw that my huge 24oz. bottle of castor oil was basically untouched. I've basically avoided using it since people say that it can be drying, but seeing the bottle so full, I kicked it up a notch and added more than usual. About 20-30% castor oil to 80-70% safflower oil, as opposed to the usual 10:90 ratio. And I did my OCM as usual.In retrospect, I should've taken a picture. I wish I took a picture. Not a lot, but more than I thought possible. And instead of "grits," I would discribe them more as "plugs." There were blackheads that just popped out. Tiny black flecks. And plugs. With every sweep of my fingers, I felt more and more loosening up, and I push on it and pop. It felt so good, guys. My nose looks like I just used one of those charcoal nose strips. Jfc what have I been doing this entire time.tldr; add more castor oil
