Vita-oil

[Guest guest]

I also have a sample of the Vita-oil and have been trying it for a few

days. I'm not sure though exactly when it should be applied. If I put

it on while my face is still wet, then it's going on before the

Metrocream I use. But I thought that medication should go on before

any other products. How do you all use it?

Thanks,

Hi everyone -

On to a non-controversial topic.... i've been using Vita=oil for abotu 2

months now and it hasn't impacted my skin in any way, neg or pos. In other

words, I don't see it " soothing " the redness that I think some people have

experienced. I am wondering if I should continue to use it, I prefer lotions

for moisturizing. Is there a good reason why I should keep using it? I've

read about it being a " protective barrier " . Should I use it for that? do I

need that?

Thanks for your help!!

Margaret,

To your questions about the vita-oil, I'd say, that if you're not breaking out

and if you don't see increased irritation, you're probably using the right

amount

for YOU---When I started with Dr Sy's moisturizing oil, I began by overusing too

much on my wet face--I also discovered that instead of " dry " , I was " normal to

oily " even though I'm in my fifties! I just received my bottle of oil--am

trying

the vita-oil this time, and knowing the " oily " about my skin, am just using a

couple of drops after cleansing my face, and on my WET face, applying it--no

problem, and I really do think it even prevents some of the breaking out--lumpy,

bumpy, that I experience!

I am also using it up around my eyes--wet skin!--and it does not seem to

" travel "

into my eyes, using it this way. As long as you don't see increased skin

problems, you could probably continue using it.

hope this helps,

Carol
