    This is good to get rid of makeup. You also will notice that pores have bits being removed. I could not tolerate the oil for my face. I broke out terribly, even on my forehead. This is not...

    I keep trying this method over and over again, just to come to the same conclusion: It's not for me! I love the philosophy around this, it's natural, work with your skin and not against it, and...
