    Acne Scars

    The rules of this board are that one cannot post any info on websites. Just do a search. Epidermx is just like many other microdermabrasion creams or scrubs, massage it on your face, rinse it off, towel dry and then apply the camellia oil as a moisturizer.

    honey oatmeal scrub

    It would but you have to keep the unused portions in the fridge. I'd rather just make a little at a time.

    acne in your 50's

    Chin acne is often associated with hormonal changes, especially at adult age. Perhaps check with your doctor?

    Help!

    I use it to spot treat, wait 30 minutes and put camellia oil on top as moisturizer. If you have oily skin you can just use it all over the face.

    Acne before my period!!!

    Use BP (Benzoyl Peroxide) or the Queen Helene Mint Julep Mask to spot treat acne. They'll dry up the pimples pretty fast. Then use a good concealer to cover up. I love the Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage Concealer.

    pits on face

    I got rid of my acne scar pits using topical products - Silkia camelia oil and Epidermx microderrabrasion. I used to have 5 pretty deep pits on my forehead (about 2mm) and they have pretty much filled in completely. It took time to get results. I didn't really see any difference until around 6...

    Acne on shoulders....

    Are you using a cleanser or body wash with BHA? It helps. Clean & Clear Continous Acne Fighting Cleanser has a 2% BHA. Neutrogena has one too.

    Swollen zits?

    Cortizone shot is the fastest way to shrink a swollen zit but there is a risk it could leave a dent (though the probability is not very high) which may or may not go away. You could try some BP treatment like Clearasil's Persagel 10which has 10% BP and/or tea tree oil.

    Silkia Camellia Oil?

    It worked for my pitted acne scars. But I used it in conjunection with Epidermx microdermabrasion. I can't attribute all my results to the oil but a large part I would think. A couple of other posters on this boarRAB have had similar results but I don't seem to see them post here any more. One...

    Grooves/ Pits on the face

    You can go for laser treatments but you need many sessions to work, if at all. Talk to a doctor about your options and more importantly, ask if he/she has any success stories. I've heard so many stories of people going for laser with very little results. I think one reason is most people just...

    Acne on my nose (HELP!!!!)

    I also recommend aspirin mask and BP. If they don't work for you, try the Stridex Alcohol-Free tTriple Action PaRAB or Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Stress Control, 3-in-1 Hydrating Acne Treatment.

    pits in cheek from scarring

    I applied the oil every morning and night. I initally used Epidermx 2 or 3 times a week but later changed to once a day when the company came up with a new version of the cream.

    Tiny pit!!?

    It may or may not heal on its own. If it doesn't disappear in a month or two without using anything, then you can bet it won't heal on its own. I had pits that were rather deep - about 2mm and 2 OTC products Silkia camellia oil and Epidermx Microdermabrasion got rid of them for me. It took over...

    Epidermix & Silkia Camallia Oil Users...couple of ??'s

    I had a few zits when I first started on Epidermx which actually helped clear them up. I wouldn't worry about it if you only have a few zits here and there. I use a cleanser, then Epidermx. Sunscreen should be applied last, after any moisturizer but before your makeup. I highly recommend the...

    little white bumps on face

    I think they are milia. They are best rid of by extracting with an ultra fine lancet. But if they are very close to the eyes, you might want to go to a spa or salon to have a professional do it for you.

    makeup

    Use a good concealer. The best I've used is Laura Mercier's Secret Camouflage concealer. Some say the Prescriptives concealer is also good.

    if you do pop a zit...

    In that situation I like to use aspirin mask or Queen Helene Mint Julp Mask to dry up the zits. Either works well for me.
