    Shea Butter souffle (whipped) mixed with either Argan Oil or Marula Oil, throw in some glycerin..... works for me, but I just do it once a day .... really at night. In the a.m., after I showed, I...

    Never have I come across such an effective method of getting rid of acne. At first I was a little hesitant on putting oil on my already oily complexion but after some research and the chemistry...

    I was one of those people who loved the whole idea that "oil attracts oil" and was therefore convinced that the OCM would be a great way to deeply cleanse my pores. It IS a great idea in theory, in...

    I like to do the OCM on Sunday mornings. I use EVOO and castor oil, mixed in a bottle. I apply the oil, massage it around for 1-2 min then steam and wipe with a microfiber cloth. For the rest of...

    I did this for like a month, tried all different combinations of oils, but liked sunflower oil the best since it's non-comedogenic (i'm very clog and acne prone). For a while I was using a...

    I don't think I could ever get my sunscreen off without oil, but I've learned that it's vital to select oils that are appropriate for my skin type (oily/acneic/sensitive). My two favorites are...

    Here's my take on the principle of OCM and those who quickly write it off as ineffective or detrimental: 1) Perhaps you haven't found the appropriate oil blend/frequency/supplementary routine 2)...

    Edit: I just realized my review might be misleading. The OCM has not made my broken capillaries disappear--when I said my complexion was better, I mean that my skin had a nice dewy, supple look...

    Unfortunately, this method did not work for me. In fact, it severely irritated my skin after using it for a week and gave me a rash of eczema bumps on my forehead and chin. I also have increased...
