I find it rather interesting that people will send in their testimonials--albeit anecdotal--and others will ask for scientific evidence, implying anecdotal evidence isn't 'enough.' Money should be spent on researching anecdotal claims but it doesn't make testimonials any less valid. Truth be told, even in the face of 'scientific' evidence, it doesn't actually mean the product is going to produce the same results for everyone, that's why you can take two people with the same condition and give them the same treatment and each of them will react differently. Fascinating.

But then it made complete sense, oil is needed to dissolve oil. By stripping our skin of oils using astringents and cleansers, the body tells the brain to send oil and hence, the merry go round continues. I love animals and I don't believe in the slaughtering of any animal for beauty purposes. I trust where I get my emu oil from and to all of you with acne who haven't tried the oil for fear of making your acne worse, I am a testimony to the contrary. Since using emu oil, only a short week, I have seen a significant improvement in the texture, look and feel of my skin. I don't believe it is pore clogging at all!!! As with everything, you must be willing to try something out before you can come up with any conclusions.

I have very dry and senstive skin and very dry hair, made worse by the desert climate where I live. I've tried everything..oatmeal, tea tree, olive oil, goat's milk..you name it. Nothing has worked better for me to relieve dry skin and reduce wrinkles. I started using emu oil about a year ago when I came across a vender’s booth at one of the local farmer’s markets.
