My other new passion – the oil washing method.

It sounds nuts, it sounds counter productive, it sounds like I’m talking out of my ass when I talk about it.

Here’s how it works!!!

Soaps strip our face of natural oils that we need – this is obvious.  When we wash with soaps we end up needing moisturizers.  That means we’re using two products shit full of chemicals for our faces!  Sounds kinda gross when you think about it, right?  And all of it’s harmful to your eyes…and if you ingest it…bad news (although I don’t suggest drinking your face wash in any circumstances).

With the oil cleansing method you do the most counter intuitive thing ever.  You rub oil on your face to get it clean.

I use castor oil, most sites recommend that you cut the castor oil with another oil such as sunflower kernel oil, olive oil, ect…

I have oily problematic skin so I’m using the most effective oil I know of.  Castor oil can disolve blackheads and clear up blemishes. SCORE!

You get a dime sized amount of oil in your palm, rub it between both hands (castor oil is THICK!) and then massage it all over your face for a while (a minute up to 5!).  Rub the oil over your WHOLE FACE, eyelids included! It takes off make up in a crazy good way! 

Once you’re covered and massaged in well, get a washcloth.  Run hot water and get the washcloth wet with the hot water.  Hold the washcloth over your face.  The heat will open your pores, the oil will get in and destroy whatever ickies you have hiding in there.  After a while you’ll be fed up, bored, or just feel done – take that opportunity to use the warm washcloth to wipe the oil off your face.

Your face should look healthy, glowy, and feel VERY soft and supple.  It should NOT feel oily. 

Do this at night!

In the morning, wash your face with just warm water.  It won’t be greasy.  Even at the end of the day, it won’t feel greasy!!

Its a freakin miracle.

You MIGHT notice your skin looking healthy after the first day, but you should see a difference in 4-6 days for sure.  It will be a BIG difference.  AND its cheap!!!  $3 for a 6oz bottle?  Yeah, can’t go wrong with that price! 

I know it sounds crazy, but all you stand to lose is $3.
