Zinc powder is working for me!

[Guest guest]

I have an oily face and found that Zinco cream makes it even oilier. So I

purchased 50mg zinc capsules, opened a few in a small cup, added a few drops

of water to obtain a soft paste and applied. In just a few days may face

calmed down considerably. Also, a lot of the swelling went away. I use it

at bedtime and during the day when I am home. It will get a little powdery

after it dries but who cares if it works.

These may not work for everyone but it won't hurt to give it a try.

Best wishes, joe

This sounds brilliant! Joe, you are my new hero!!!!

I've thought of doing the same with dead sea salts and putting it on my oily

nose.

I will write the group with more detail about my past 6 weeks or so of using

dead sea salt apray. Long story/short: when I remember to use the spray, I

have good results. I've had the month from hell (house got flooded, husband

in the hospital with shingles on his head) and don't always remember to use

the spray.

If you ever seen someone with shingles on their head, it makes our skin look

like a baby's bottom. Be thankful for what you have, and for what you DON'T

have!
