[Acne] The three words that changed my life. “Oil dissolves oil.”

Beauty Tips For Body Care
I tried something almost a decade ago that changed my life, and I feel like I should share it with the world in hopes that it might change someone else’s life too.Ok so, a little backstory about my skin.In high school I had TERRIBLE acne. I tried everything, prescription medication, masks, cleansers, etc. and nothing ever worked for me. I also used to pop my zits which has led to some scarring👎🏻.Anyway, after hs my skin got a little better, but still not great. I still had acne, my T-zone was always oily, and my pores were huge. That’s when a friend of mine told me that oil dissolves oil.She gave me a recipe that was 1 part olive oil, 1 part sunflower oil, and 1 part tea tree oil. The first time I tried it, it was weird to say the least. Washing your face with something that doesn’t lather, it just feels wrong at first. Not to mention it took a little time to make sure I had rinsed it all off. But holy shit. It worked.I haven’t used soap on my face in 9 years. My acne is non-existent. My scars have all faded. Life is good.Now I only have to use it when I’m about to start my period or once a week in the wintertime if my skin is feeling a little dry. I’ve incorporated micellar water into my daily routine just to remove my makeup and make my skin feel clean, but I’m still soap free👍🏻.Anyways, I thought I’d share this with you in case some of you are struggling with acne and have never heard the “oil dissolves oil” trick. Good luck to anyone who’s willing to try this though! PM me if you have any questions.
