Here's the scoop.
Alright fellas lets get real a for a second. I grew up with a crap-load of acne on my face from the time i was 14 to 24. it was really embarrassing, but what makes me so mad is that nobody, not even the freakin Dermatologist told me how easy it was to fix it. Instead they sold me this chemical called actuate. For perspective girls have to take pregnancy test while they're on it because it can hurt the baby. Does common sense not make it extremely clear that this stuff it still bad for the user? I took it ever day for something like 2 years and yeah it got rid of it, but they told me that chemical would not leave my system until I was 24! And naturally, at that point I may have to have it again.
Well praise the Lord I did not need it because I was taught how to take care of my own body instead of running back to endless money cycle of Pharmakia. I learned when I was about 20 that it was mostly the Pizza Hut pepperoni pizzas I'd eat almost every day. Hahaha! Seriously though those seed oils, bad butter and grease was the culprit. I didn't eat anything good for those years so it's no wonder they had to use something so toxic. Or so they wanted me to think.
What Not To Do
The biggest frustration was that when I was diligently washing my face twice or even three times a day, nobody told me that I was removing all the oils from my face theat my face needed! You have to remortureise your face! I'm sure every girl knows this but I know most guys don't. Its not that complicated. Really its common sense, but I trusted what these doctors were telling me. I looked at the ingredients in the soap I used to used and saw immediately that it was hella toxic too. The whole things is people profiting as much as possible off your ignorance and it wasn't just Equate and those stupid soap companies, it was the freaking dermatologist down the street.
What you Should Do
Only eat at restaurants that don't cook in vegetable, soy and seed oils. Thats only maybe 2 places around here but you can also make much better food at home. Get into it, it's really easy to cook up a steak on the stove and with just salt and pepper it takes better than any steakhouse around here. So long as you buy your meat from a local farm like R Family Ranch at the Farmers Market.
Eat good and don't wash your face all the time. Once a day is fine, but when you do, don't use the hormone disruption soaps at the stores. Instead try these recipes below. I personally love them.
My wife Emily makes these same face washes for herself, so you may wanna show your ladies and then you can both use them.

- 1 cup unscented Castille soap
- 4 teaspoons almond oil
- 20 drops lavender essential oil
- 20 drops lemon essential oil

I hope this inspires you to throw away any toxic soaps you have in your bathroom and if you need help getting good versions I'm working on uploading those, but you can also head over to The Wellnest Shop in Rogers and those ladies will hook you up. The essential oils are form a local family near Centerton and they're company is called Joyful Mountain. They even deliver for free.
Stay healthy!
