Oil Cleansing Method (OCM)

For those of you that walk on the crunchier side, you've no doubt heard the buzz about the oil cleansing method (OCM).

I shuddered the first time I read the gory details: rubbing thick oil all over your face to COMBAT acne and overactive skin.

Insert sound of screeching record here.

But, I must say, I approve.

It takes some experimenting with that works best. Crunchy Betty has some great advice on getting started with OCM, as well as her lastest post on tweaking the formula a bit. 

What's working for me now: 2/3 castor oil to 1/3 Smude's cold-pressed sunflower oil; tamanu oil (just a few drops/shot) and a few drops of tea tree oil.

Shockingly, your face may seem a bit dry after following the hot washcloth washing instructions. I use a bit of tamanu oil (very powerful oil with healing properties) over my face as a moisturizer.

Thoughts? Successes or failures out there?
