With rosehip oil, it felt more like a proper breakout because the acne was inflamed. The purges I've experienced with Retin-A have all been very similar: red, but not inflamed acne, and whiteheads -- almost like a rash. (I have pictures here: http://www.crappycandle.com/2016/08/how-to-use-retin-survive-purge-acne.html). My reaction to rosehip oil was nothing like this, so I opted to discontinue use rather than risking potential scarring.Shayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10641891761903836154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-252932792312090413.post-78347202134213936912018-01-31T01:23:31.023-08:002018-01-31T01:23:31.023-08:00For anyone who has ever used retin A you would kno...For anyone who has ever used retin A you would know that acne gets worse before it gets better. Years ago when I was on retin a treatment my derm explained that it pretty much brings up a lot of acne in the first few weeks. According to retin a packaging/website it takes about 12 weeks before you see results. So I'm guessing rosehip oil will be the same since it's the natural alternative. So be patient and use it long term. Seems like the initial breakouts many of you had was just the vit A doing its thing.

At first, I did not see any change and my acne was still there. As I started to slowly change my skin care routine and my skin reacted to better products, I still kept the oil. When I look at my skin now, I do find that it is a lot smoother, softer, brighter, and the acne scars that usually would take a long time to disappear, now would go away within the month or two. What I initially used it for was anti-aging because I did not want to invest more financially.CindyEverydayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13230467548310371604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-252932792312090413.post-67108664403960884112016-09-01T15:40:20.148-07:002016-09-01T15:40:20.148-07:00the brand you used is actually 100 percent rose hi...the brand you used is actually 100 percent rose hip oil too! anyway, give it another shot for 3 months!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15222243409081927986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-252932792312090413.post-69426953015010678332016-09-01T15:38:07.983-07:002016-09-01T15:38:07.983-07:00Hi, I recommend using the oil for at least 3 month...Hi, I recommend using the oil for at least 3 months. Just like you, I have acne prone skin and when I first started using it it made my skin seem worse but I just kept using it because I didn't want to throw it away and waste the money that I spent on it (it was like 28 bucks for a specific brand at whole foods). Anyway, once I got close to the final drops of the bottle, I realize my skin looked really good!!! Instead of buying another bottle, I decided to try a new moisturizer and all my acne came back again. So I finally went to whole foods and got another bottle last week. I like this brand ( burgundyish label called "trilogy") because it isn't diluted with vitamin e oil as most of the brands are. I think thats maybe what made you break out? but if you're still suffering with acne, you should give rose hip oil another chance.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15222243409081927986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-252932792312090413.post-14655040673222119632016-03-12T06:15:02.791-08:002016-03-12T06:15:02.791-08:00I enjoyed reading your honest product review about...I enjoyed reading your honest product review about the rose hip oil.

As I am meant to be working this will be briefish.... <br />I have acne prone, reactive to random shi*, combination skin. I also get hyperpigmentation (HP) from previous spots and rashes. Yeah me (sounds like I am applying for a competition, I'm not). <br />Anyhoo, Rosehip Seed Oil is a tetchy one, at a 100% my face will break out in painful lumps of misery. Roll on a few years and I liked the idea of natural treatment of HP, so I thought I would ease into it... After clay cleansing, I used a mix of grapeseed oil / RSO of a eyeball ratio of 70 / 30. Used 3 drops only all over my face. I actually found my skin to become dry in places! More importantly no lumps of misery and my HP did tone down. <br /><br />Did people say I looked 10, no. But it is ok....<br />Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17542504585684364679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-252932792312090413.post-33523091648758890502016-01-28T04:03:42.462-08:002016-01-28T04:03:42.462-08:00The pictures you show are not long term scars (tha...The pictures you show are not long term scars (that have been there for years) but the leftover acnes from 1-3 weeks that will still continue to heal by themselves even without any treatment.

I pretty much...Hey! I just came across your page :)<br />I pretty much have the best skin EVA ;).... hormonal acne, hyper-pigmentation, scars, oily skin, dry skin, and sensitive skin yayyyyyy. But I wanted to tell you to try vitamin e oil, it works great on scars and hyper-pigmentation. I use the brand from "sundown naturals vitamin e oil" has an IU of 70,000. People say you shouldn't go over and IU 40,000 but I haven't seen any side effects. I've been using it for months and I've seen a huge improvement in my skin and scarring. It's a thick vitamin e oil so, after I wash and tone my face at night I use it as a moisturizer. You don't gotta worry about it getting on your sheets or anything...it absorbs into the skin really fast. I wouldn't use it in the morning unless you wanna get a sun burn or tan.<br /><br />As for toners since your testing them I'd say no to Neutrogena ( HELL FUCKING NO) well this is just my opinion but there products just dry the skin out and makes it itchy like I wanna rip my face off itchy (well for me at least). I'd def recommend Dickinsons Original Witch Hazel Pore Perfecting Toner or Thayers Alcohol-Free Witch Hazel with Organic Aloe Vera Formula Toner, Rose Petal.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
