i guess i should update and tell y'all what i've been doing about my acne. i've been using castille soap (very mild, gentle) in the mornings and just water at night. then i follow that with some straight jojoba oil (it's the oil that most closely resembles our natural oils). my skin tone has evened out amazingly. i'm still getting the odd pimple here and there, but no more of the cystic acne that i was getting when i made the op. i've also discovered that my carbs have been a lot higher than what i thought they were and i'm dealing with that right now! i'm also taking 3 tbsp ground flax/day, 2 caps of evening primrose oil and 2 caps of cod liver oil (among other supplements!)
