Re: Acne

One more thing... I forgot to say that before I do the epsom salt poultice, I rub emu oil (not vegan, I know) on, and let it sink in for about 10 min. It is a good carrier oil - deeply penetrating and non-comodeogenic. It also helps counteract any drying effect the tea tree might have. I think you could probably use jojoba oil too as it has similar properties. Both also help the healing process -- getting rid of all those little pesky red marks. This along with a good diet and lots of lemon water and kukicha tea between meals is helping my acne a lot.

Best,
Carrie
