I am a terrible guinea pig. A good guinea pig would be consistent, washing her face at the same time every day.
I, on the other hand, am a busy, absent-minded guinea pig who forgets to shower on time. Though I suppose that’s one of the benefits of working from home – that you can wait an extra 12 hours to shower from time to time and the only person who is really subjected to it is your spouse.
Not that I’m rolling around in mud and oil during those extra 12 hours. But it is more time for those natural oils to accumulate on my face.
Still, I can report that the Miracle Cure has done quite well. My face stays clean longer and, as I said in the previous entry, gets self-moisturized evenly. I’m hardly breaking out at all, just the occasional whitehead plus those persistent little volcanoes that sit deep under the skin (which, I’m pretty sure, are a bacterial thing rather than an excessive-glandular-output thing). In spite of the biting cold that Brad and I have been taking walks in and the heat of the occasional embarrassing moment or thoughtless overdressing in my zeal to stay warm, my normally-quite-sensitive face has remained as mellow as can be.
Dare I say it? This stuff actually works. It hasn’t cured everything, and the results would most likely be better if my showertime was more routine, but it definitely does a fantastic job. Consider me a convert.
(Check out the previous installment of Auntie Rayna’s Miracle Acne Cure for the “recipe”.)
Update (3.1.09): I’ve given up and gone back to my other products. My schedule is just too unpredictable. Maybe I will try it again in the future but the verdict right now is that this won’t work if you don’t/can’t do it at the same time every day.
