NTR: Anyone here use OCM (Oil Cleansing Method)?

I started using coconut oil tonight. So far, it gives my face a really nice feeling!

 

(MY old blend was 33% castor oil, 66% EVOO, but it wasn't working for me anymore, and I don't like the smell of EVOO).

I tried it but didn't like it. My face never felt clean.  People swear by it though.

I love ordering from brambleberry.com for oils and other fun stuff (soap, lip balm, etc)

I tried it, but it didn't work so great for me.  I'm now using the raw honey & ACV method and I LOVE it!

I hope it works for you though!

Can you please tell me about this? I have heard bits and pieces but no real explanation. I had the same reaction when I heard about OCM: "Oil? On my FACE?"

Honey? On my FACE? 

I know, right!?  When I first heard about it my initial reaction was, "Um, sticky.  No thanks."

But, it's not really sticky at all.  I use raw honey.  I keep a jar in the shower and just take a dab out and rub on my face like face wash, then rinse off with water.  The ACV I use as a toner.  I have oily skin so I use 3/4 ACV and 1/4 water.  Then treat the problem areas with TTO.  

I had seriously thrown up the white flag and was using knock-off ProActiv before I found this method, and it's saved my face.  The honey, ACV, and TTO are all naturally antibacterial so they help a TON with acne.  You can dilute the ACV as much as you need for sensitive skin or other skin types.

I'm not sure what the OCM is, but I do use Laura Mercier's oil facial cleanser and the water after.  It has made SUCH a difference in my skin!
