I'm a guy. I started watching this video simply because... well to be honest I thought Cammie was pretty and clicked the video. However, I started using this method a couple of weeks ago and stopped using any other products I had. My skin is not terrible but not great either. After about two weeks I noticed a major improvement. I would never have thought a video like this would be relevant for me... but it really was. Damn. Thanks Cammie. I guess I have to subscribe now because I feel like I owe you one.
+Carmen Foster She covered with the makeup and foundation. I've been there so I could feel her struggles. By the way, I also use oil cleaning for years. It's good for me :)
I had horrible acne for over 20 years and the oil cleansing method is exactly how I finally got perfect skin. Now I get compliments on my skin it's amazing
Okay what i'm about to say is gross but beneficial to people that have cystic pimples. When I got on cystic pimple it didn't have an "exit" so I just squeezed as hard as I can and eventually it popped but teared through layers of skin. When it stopped bleeding it kinda left a hole in my face and was so painful and sore and wouldn't stop bleeding for about an hour. After a couple of weeks I had a major breakout around that spot and that's because when the gunk was tearing through my skin some of it got trapped in the layers of skin, therefore causing me to have a majorrrrr breakout. It wasn't pretty and when it cleared up after about 2-3 weeks it left a horrible scar that looked like I got stabbed in the face, the scar is gone now though. Moral of the story... Do what Cammie said and don't pick cystic pimples.
Barry B. Benson o god I used dental floss hack for blackheads and it worked but I had a big blackhead and when I got it out it started to bleed for like 5 min now I have 2 small holes on my nose are those gonna turn into scars? if they are its ok I can just use lemon juice
I have used this method for several years. I cleanse with castor oil, rice bran or camellia oil and tea tree oil (for antiseptic properties). I do it twice daily and rarely have breakouts. I follow up with a low pH cleanser like CeraVe or Neutrogena Deep Clean oil free. Then toner, serums and a moisturizer (modified Korean multistep skin care program). My skin has made a 180 degree turn. Far decreased oily skin, fading of hyperpigmentation and no painful cysts. I am so happy.
Carol Smith can I do this OCM everyday even though I don't wear any makeup? I only put sunscreen and that's it. I have a dry skin and having some occassional breakouts specially in that time of the month. I want my skin to glow. Do you think this will work for me?
I swear, oil is like one of the wonders of the earth!! It is good for almost anything like removing makeup, hydrating the skin, treating dry hair, improving hair growth, homeopathic remedies, massaging, aromatherapy, and like you said also, treating acne. There are so many out there for different things, it's a guarantee you'll find a lot of oils that can benefit you. I recommend tea tree oil for a lot of uses. I'd put drops of it in my bath for relaxation, hair shampoo and conditioner for hair treatment, facial toner to refresh my skin, candle warmer for aromatherapy, and spot treatment for acne. You'd be surprised how well oil works for so many things. You can practically have only oil for your entire skin care routine. Another thing I love to do with tea tree oil is put it in a humidifier. Sinuses cleared almost instantly when I was sick. Mother nature has everything we need lol.
I've been doing this method for nearly 5 months since I've seen Cammie talk about the oil cleansing method on another video. This has CHANGED my entire confidence about my skin. I have basically no acne and all my blackheads are almost completely gone. I cannot thank you Cammie enough times for letting this method come to light!
Oh my gosh Cammie our skin stories are SO similar! Benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid both irritated my skin like crazy and made my acne so much worse, on top of drying my skin out. I have finally gotten my acne under control after years and years, but I have always been SO CURIOUS about oil cleansing! I'm definitely convinced to try it out now! Also, I wanted to say I am so so so excited for you and your new channel! I LOVE it so far! I adore you and Shannon together, and now not only do we get to see another side of you, but we get a bonus video every week as well! Can't wait to see the new videos to come! xoxoxo
It's the second time I'm actually commenting on a video even though I've got a youtube account for a looong time, I've been going through that ordeal since I was 15, and as I started worrying about my skin ageing (I'm now 39), I've been trying to find more natural methods to cleanse my skin and get rid of my acne! So THANK YOU both for the video and the links, I'm delving in!
Cammie, you make me so happy! My friends didn't believe me when I told them I was putting oils on my skin to get rid of my acne, but it really works!! I started oil cleansing 2,5 years ago and my skin has never been better! I think no one benefits from the harsh chemicals in common products and should really try this relaxing treatment. Nowadays I do it once a month; and I'm just using regular olive oil! It's so nice to hear that it worked for you as well! Hopefully it will help lots more now that you've shared your story :-) Thank you and good luck with your new channel! X
I saw this video a week ago...been doin it since and already made a huuuugggeeee change i swear i still cant believe...i really cant thank you enough you are AMAZING..never loved my skin more..thank you!
I'm glad it's worked for her, but some of the oils she mentioned aren't necessarily the best for acne prone skin (other than the castor oil) for acne or acne scars, try oils such as Tamanu, Sea buckthorn oil, or Hemp oil. Always make sure they are organic and cold pressed. You can use them as moisturizers as well, and they will not break you out.
I honestly think you're the first person I find to bring up systic pimples. It's always been a problem for me, and some people even get confused when I explain it, like it doesn't exist or something. I'm so happy I found your channel ❤️
I don't have acne on my face. It's combination type. I've been using the oil cleansing method for quite some time now. It leaves my skin super soft and smooth and I totally love it. You could massage your choice of oil(s) on to clean skin just before bed and leave it as is. Wake up the next morning to super soft, smooth, plump and firm skin! Continue your morning skin care routine and you're good to go!
this video saved my life. this method worked a lot for me, i just ran out of products but i need to get more ^^ one of the very few methods that actually work. i wanted to cry because i gradually saw a difference 😭❤️ so thank you!!!
Thank you thank you thank you!!!! Mid 20's acne is hereditary in my family. I had perfect skin throughout my teens and when I was finally smacked in the face by cystic and regular acne I had not a clue on how to go about making it stop. I'm on my 7th day of the oil method which I found out about through you! I think I've found the ratio that works for me and I am so happy! My skin is finally clear enough that my scars actually have time to heal without new blemishes popping up. In fact, it stopped a cyst dead in its tracks the third day in... It disappeared.... WHATTTZZ?! I'm used to those bitches lasting at least 2-3 weeks. Crazy. The purge period was really short and minimal for me. I'm blown away. Thank you thank you thank you for sharing. I can't wait to tell everyone.
I'm 45 and have worked in a spa for ten years. I make an oil cleansing blend of 80%castor oil, 10% jojoba oil,5% rose hip seed oil, 5% jasmine oil and my skin has never looked better. I massage a tablespoons worth onto my skin and then wipe away with a warm washcloth. FYI pick up a 3 pack of microfiber washcloths from your local dollar store. Spa and salon secret we use to remove all traces of makeup and it miraculously removes hair color from your scalp. Enjoy!
Slime Love this is really late, sorry! If you don’t already have hair growing around the mustache area, then no, this will not make hair magically appear. If you do, yes, it will probably make the hair grow a little faster so you might have to remove it more frequently(if you want to remove it at all), but it’s not like you’ll wake up with a full blown mustache every morning 😊
I am waiting for my oils and I am excited to start making my own skincare and I was just looking up what cloths work best with OCM. Do you feel like the microfiber cleans all the oil off? I hate microfiber usually because I feel like it doesn't absorb water. I am going to be making my cleansing oil close to your concoction but I am going to use grape seed oil instead of jojoba. There are some neat sites that sell peptides, actives, antioxidants, and preservatives. I am looking forward to making serums for my friends and family.
I rarely have the patience for videos over 8 mins, let alone beauty/makeup vids. But the explanation was so succinct, the video ended before I even knew! Learned a lot, will try this out. Great first vid!
My cousin turned me on to this. She uses rose hip oil. It works so well! It does sound so counter intuitive but it works so well (for some people). Just a tip: if you still have spots occasionally I found that putting diluted ( I usually use vitamin E) tea tree oil directly on the spot does wonders. I'm absolutely loving your channel!
Many questions. 1) how often do you do this? Is it ok to do it twice a day? You said you only do it twice a week so what do you do wash with the rest of the time? 2) you said you do it before you shower. In the shower is it okay to get your face wet? Or does this get rid of all the oils you just put on? 3) how often do you put your wash cloth I'm the washing machine? 4) where is your necklace from?
salysilic acid(sp) is a common allergy for a lot of people so it is great that you are pointing this out Cammie! As an Esthetician, I feel a lot of people do not pay attention to skin care. Skin care is key to a flawless finish! Bravo Cammie. Also its important to do 3 steps a day Cleanse,tone and balance!
this video has helped me out a lot. I developed acne problems as an adult and couldn't find a way to control it. The first day I tried this method I saw results. It blew my mind. Not only did it help my acne it made my skin look amazing! I'm grateful for this video.
I have to say Cammie, I am just like you. My skin is always very oily and after puberty and in my 20's now, I still have acne. It was super embarrassing because everyone in college walks around spotless. And my acne comes in the form of huge red mountains on my forehead, cheeks, chest, shoulders, and back. I literally have it everywhere! Thank you for introducing me to this product! I actually just bought it online. Hopefully this works out and I can finally have that clear skin I used to have back when I was 12! Love the new channel btw.
My skin has recently started to break out and I've tried numerous cleanses to help but nothing worked, I remember you talking about in a past video. The results look amazing, I'll try it out, thank you and congrats on your new channel!
I have so many things to say!! But you really understand the struggle that is acne prone skin! When you were telling the story about your acne, I could have cried...I dealt with the exact same thing!! That was such an intriguing video and you could tell you know your stuff because you've put that time and effort into battling the acne. So I will definitely do some research and try this method out. I'm 23 and still dealing with acne and I'm tired of it, especially because my mom and sister have beautiful clear skin! Anyway, that was a great first video!!
I have a terrible skin and tried thousand of products and I've never find something that made my skin better. And last night I tried your method and as of today I can see a little bit of change. It made my acne subside and the marks a little lighter and I love the effect. I'll definitely want to continue using it. Hopefully it works for me this time :)
Awesome video. I was wondering about the end of your video, you said that you only use the oil cleansing method twice a week now, so i was just wondering what you use to wash your makeup off when you aren't using the oil cleaning method, just regular face wash? Thanks a bunch!
I’m allergic to BPO too, it swelled up my face several times, blurred my vision and now I have scars on my neck from when it puffed up. As soon as I heard you were allergic, I subscribed, liked your video and literally bought some of the products you recommended. Thank you!
I started cleansing with lemon essential oil and castor oil in the evening and using only jojoba oil in the morning. I make sure to use soap and a foam cleanser (Origins) to make sure ALL the oil is off my face, and then I use a moisturizer. I know some people don't remove all the oil, but I prefer to remove it all because if there are any impurities trapped in the oil, leaving it on the skin can irritate and cause breakouts. I have been doing this for about two weeks now and this has really worked extremely well for me. As someone who has struggled with acne for over a decade, I finally feel like I have found something that works (which for a very long time I didn't think existed). I have oily skin, and used to have severely clogged up my pores, and with a tendency to get oily throughout the day. But within a few days of using the OCM i noticed it lifted out 90% of my blackheads and whiteheads! Initially I thought the oil was breaking me out when my skin got bumpy, but it was doing the opposite! Also the lemon essential oil helps with my severe acne scarring that I got from trying to clean my pores by pinching my skin which is a terrible idea but its hard to resist when you notice how bumpy your skin is. If anyone wants to try this out (lemon oil + castor oil), PLEASE BE CAREFUL with the lemon essential oil, as it should be diluted properly, using too much and being exposed to UV light can cause skin damage. Thats why I only use the lemon essential oil during the evening, I mix three drops of lemon oil with a teaspoon of castor oil. =)
Can you please do a skin care routine video? You said you use this method for deep cleansing only a couple a days oer week now. It'll be great to see your full skin care routine, thanks!
holy crap, i havent ever thought about the possibility of being allergic to salicylic acid! or any other ingredient in most commercial branded acne cleaners. I'm allergic to so many things and I have incredibly sensitive skin. thank you so much for posting this video and talking in detail about how you came to this method! i am absolutely going to look into different oils to find the best combination for my skin. im 26 and its long over due for me to stop dealing w acne!
I have been using this method for the last month since watching this video and it has changed my skin. So much so I had to come back and comment. I had heard about it years ago but finally getting to see such a simple tutorial made it easy. Thanks girl!
Wow really informative video. I tried olive oil once and it didn't really work out for my skin though >.< However my biggest takeaway from the video is it's important to massage your eyebrows! Thank you and looking forward to more videos from you Cammie!
I use a waterless cleanser every night, but as my last step, I rub bio oil into my face. I have super dehydrated skin and acne scars, and bio oil works so well for both. Only thing that's ever gotten rid of my acne scarring.
Taylor cooper I don't know if that would be the same, because you're taking the castor oil & bio oil mixture off your face afterwards, right? I use my bio oil like a moisturizer, so I rub it in really good, and I leave it on while I sleep.
THE OIL IS WORKING! My doctor had just decided to put me under this new treatment where this little tool vacuums around my face while hot. The lady burned some of my sideburns... And all it did was irritate me. Thank God this works way better.
I'm going to try this out and get back to you on how it's been. Lately my mom has made me feel really insecure about my acne, despite me normally not being that uncomfortable with it. This has caused me to feel extra insecure around my crush and made conversations with her really hard for me. I'm hoping this will help me clear up my face and in turn make feel confident again to talk to the girl I like. Thank you for posting this video, even though you may want to focus on style and makeup I think you should make a video on confidence and how feeling like you look good transpires in how confident you act around people/crushes, etc.
Wow that sounds a lot like my skin. It's not as bad anymore but it's still not completely clear. I've actually been doing the OCM for maybe a month now, but with hemp seed oil, and it hasn't seemed to change my skin. It hasn't gotten worse but it hasn't gotten better either so I am trying to do more research. I'm wondering now if maybe I should mix castor oil with the hemp seed oil.
I also had pretty similar skin, I started using 1/2 olive oil and 1/2 castor oil with a few drops of tea tree oil. It's the only thing that's cleared mine up. I still get a pimple or two around my period, but they are super small and quickly disappear after putting a tea tree + witch hazel + aloe Vera mixture on them
Maybe try removing all the oil with soap and a foam cleanser after doing the OCM. Leaving in the oil and only using water to clean it can leave behind impurities trapped in the oil (water doesn't take off all the oil). Ive been doing OCM but I remove all of the oil afterwards with soap and water, and then use a moisturizer. hope this helps!
I looooove that you included articles to help us with our specific needs. Very professionally made and I can tell you really thought this video's contents out before posting it.
I've never really had bad acne but lately ive been getting small little bumps on my forehead. After watching this video i decided to try it and my face has been so smooth i love it. thank you cammie!
I've been having problems with my skin for the longest time. I'm not the research type of person so I'm glad that you show us or share us this method. I'm going to try this. Thank you for sharing. Hope it works. I'll let you know how it goes.
Yea I have to clean my face every day because I wear makeup practically every day so I'm wondering what you do to clean your face those every other days?
+Jetzy Angulo I am curious about this as well. Makeup removal wipes irritate my skin and cause rashes on my face. So, I would like to know if there is another way of easily removing makeup.
it sounds weird but I didn't have any skin issue until I graduated from college. After I graduated, I moved from the city where my school was in to my home city, and my skin just broke down for no obvious reason, it was so stressful and upsetting cuz I didn't change any product i was using and I couldn't make it better no matter what I do. It's been 3 years from the acne problem bursted and I'm still struggling with it every single day...... I don't know if my problem is the same as what you had, but I'm gonna give your method a try! you will be a true life saver if it works on me too!
Firstly, cammie well done, I just feel like you should know that I can see how much effort you put into that video and it's great. You really thoroughly explained everything. Secondly, I have a couple of questions. 1. Did Shannon help you film this 2. Will you ever tell us how your teeth are so white, even though you say you're a coffee addict (which if I'm not mistaken stains your teeth) 3. This isn't really a question. But just wanted to say you and Shannon are the highlight of my week and now that I get two videos I'm sure all of the fandom will be sooo happy! Even though your only talking to a camera and that sometimes makes it hard for you to understand your true impact, please remember you're very important to us all. And sorry for the really long comment. Love ya.
I have had really bad skin for like 5 years or more now and I'm about to finish high school and I'm really starting to worry about not having clear skin in the future. Like you, I've tried basically everything but it hasn't really worked. So I think I'm gonna follow this method, hopefully it works! I hope my skin gets clearer before I start college in a few months. Thanks Cam! Love your channel :)
THANK YOU! My girlfriend and I are athletes and you know how sweat and dirt gets in your pores then clogs them up. Our acne is bad but its enough to where it bothers us. Watching this video convinced us to go out and by castor oil and use olive oil that we already have. We are going to start your method every other night. Fingers crossed. Hope it works!! Loved your first video. Very helpful. You're the best!! 😁
This may be a stupid question, but is it good to do this from time to time just to clean your skin, even though you don't really have acne? (also, great first video, can't wait for the rest!)
+Cammie Scott Does it matter which kind of oil you use ? I've heard a lot of people said that argan oil is great for your skin as well as your hair. I think I should try both, argan and castor oil and see what best works for me.
I actually heard you talking about this and tried it out. I was super skeptical about putting oil on my oily skin too, but it works wonders! It also leaves my skin feeling really soft & smooth.
It's depends on the oils like for example coconut oil helps all the hairs you want to grow like eyebrows and eyelashes but stops pubic and facial hair( little too descriptive but oh well)
I first heard about this method from you in the November favorites video on +nowthisisliving channel and have been using the method ever since. I went from having moderate to severe acne to almost none at all. Thanks for sharing! And for anyone considering trying this method, I would highly suggest it.
Cammie, I've never felt so understood about my acne, to be honest. I've had the same problem for ages, and it got only worse once I turned 18 because I started getting cystic pimples too -not only they look awful but they also hurt like hell-, and acne products didn't work on me, except I don't think I'm allergic. Doctors always tell you to buy expensive meds, and it just sucks and they don't work, plus I had the same problem as you, oily skin, bad acne, but dry spots and also really sensitive skin so it gets red quite easily, it's just a pain in the arse. Now it's a lot better thanks to meds, mostly, but it's still quite dry in the awful spots, so I'll definately try this. Thank you so much, honestly, it was so hard for me to deal with it because not even teenagers had it as bad as I did. It's nice to know it'll eventually get much better :).
how did you figure out that those two chemicals were causing your acne ? I would love to determine the cause to stair clear of it as well, I've been having acne since middle school and still dealing with it and I'm about to be 21 .
Definitely going to try this. I have used every product you can think of at drug stores, and have been going to a dermatologist for 3 years. The dermatologist has helped tremendously but my next step would be Accutane which has horrible side effects that makes it not even worth trying. The medicine I'm on now is great but I'm not sure if it will ever clear my acne all the way. Thanks for this video!!!!
Hey Cammie, what's your daily face cleaning routine? I've been #blessed with fairly healthy skin and I don't wear too much make up so tend to just go with hot water, cloth, cold water. but I wanna step it up a little. Not too keen on all the store cleaners though, they're too full of chemicals for my liking.
Thank you so much for making this! I'm suuuuppppeeer allergic to benzoyl peroxide as well and have horrible acne. This helped so much. Can't wait for more from this channel!!!!!
You explained this so well! I appreciate it! I've been using one oil, grapeseed. seems I need to add castor. I also do essential oils. you've been very helpful, thank you,
I think I'm going to try this. My skin gets really dry and I even though I don't have too much of a problem with acne, I think this will really help clean my pores. Thanks, Cammie!
So excited to see this video in my sub box. I remember you mentioning this a while ago and I looked into it but never gave it a go, so it's nice to listen to an in depth chat about it! Your skin is so so beautiful and glowing!
this video was so so helpful because ive struggled with my acne for what seems like FOREVER and ive never been able to get rid of it!! i really hope that this method works for me. thanks cammie :-))
+Diana Ibargüen vallejo lee los links que ella adjunto en la info del video. Ahi encuentras la información necesaria sobre los aceites. tambien soy de Colombia.
I´m definately gonna try this method ive struggled so many years using acne products that have only made my acne worse...love your channel!...greetings from Chihuahua, Mexico!
Usually (from personal experience) it's your normal skincare routine. So, face wash, toner, and moisturizer (or whatever you do) :) Witch Hazel, Tea tree oil and Rose hip oil are amazing to spot treat as well!
oh my god this is amazing. if I ever use a cleanser my skin breaks out more and its just a mess. Right now I'm in the middle of trying out products and its just a mess. I dont have that bad of acne, but i have more than i have ever had before. My skin is always better when I dont even do anything to it. I really hope this method will work!!!!
Ugh I used to take castor oil as a laxative, and now I can't even look at the stuff (it tastes and smells nasty to me). But I've heard of this method on Pinterest, it looks promising. :D
Great first official video! I would've never thought this method would actually work.. Definitely going to try it! Congrats on the new channel, can't wait until monday for video #2!!!!
Bhawna03 it depends on the person. Some people say coconut oil clogs their pores and caused acne, but I use it occasionally as a cleanser and it works well. My esthetician also confirmed it's generally not going to break you out. Give it a shot :-)
I'm a guy. I started watching this video simply because... well to be honest I thought Cammie was pretty and clicked the video. However, I started using this method a couple of weeks ago and stopped using any other products I had. My skin is not terrible but not great either.

I guess I have to subscribe now because I feel like I owe you one.
She gay...
hell yeah she is. AND?
Lol. Don't take it the wrong way, I was just saying.
Ka Phong lmao. You can have dated men in the past and be a lesbian. 😂
Idk why this made me laugh so hard, but I love it.
Great job on your first official video for your new channel. Love you Cam!
That's so cute!! You're the best mom in the world.
+Debbie Beveridge deb you are mother in law goals
She got so many views on her first video :0
3:52 if that's acne i dont know how to call mine...
+Carmen Foster Same
+Carmen Foster She probably had coverup and foundation to try to hide it, too, so keep that in mind
+Carmen Foster She covered with the makeup and foundation. I've been there so I could feel her struggles. By the way, I also use oil cleaning for years. It's good for me :)
Evans Chen It was a good foundation then, because I cover my acne with make up too and its still much noticeable.
Really though
I had horrible acne for over 20 years and the oil cleansing method is exactly how I finally got perfect skin. Now I get compliments on my skin it's amazing
what oil did you use?
Okay what i'm about to say is gross but beneficial to people that have cystic pimples. When I got on cystic pimple it didn't have an "exit" so I just squeezed as hard as I can and eventually it popped but teared through layers of skin. When it stopped bleeding it kinda left a hole in my face and was so painful and sore and wouldn't stop bleeding for about an hour.

It wasn't pretty and when it cleared up after about 2-3 weeks it left a horrible scar that looked like I got stabbed in the face, the scar is gone now though. Moral of the story... Do what Cammie said and don't pick cystic pimples.
that sounds painful. I can empathise. :(
Barry B. Benson o god I used dental floss hack for blackheads and it worked but I had a big blackhead and when I got it out it started to bleed for like 5 min now I have 2 small holes on my nose are those gonna turn into scars? if they are its ok I can just use lemon juice
I have used this method for several years. I cleanse with castor oil, rice bran or camellia oil and tea tree oil (for antiseptic properties). I do it twice daily and rarely have breakouts. I follow up with a low pH cleanser like CeraVe or Neutrogena Deep Clean oil free. Then toner, serums and a moisturizer (modified Korean multistep skin care program).
My skin has made a 180 degree turn. Far decreased oily skin, fading of hyperpigmentation and no painful cysts. I am so happy.
Carol Smith you do this method everyday?
Yes. Once every night in the winter, and twice daily most days in the summer.
Carol Smith can I do this OCM everyday even though I don't wear any makeup? I only put sunscreen and that's it. I have a dry skin and having some occassional breakouts specially in that time of the month. I want my skin to glow. Do you think this will work for me?
Carol Smith hello im just wondering im breaking out for using the oil alone. should i also follow up with a cleanser? thank u :(
Xia Notic yes absolutely.
I swear, oil is like one of the wonders of the earth!! It is good for almost anything like removing makeup, hydrating the skin, treating dry hair, improving hair growth, homeopathic remedies, massaging, aromatherapy, and like you said also, treating acne. There are so many out there for different things, it's a guarantee you'll find a lot of oils that can benefit you. I recommend tea tree oil for a lot of uses.

I'm glad it's worked for her, but some of the oils she mentioned aren't necessarily the best for acne prone skin (other than the castor oil) for acne or acne scars, try oils such as Tamanu, Sea buckthorn oil, or Hemp oil. Always make sure they are organic and cold pressed. You can use them as moisturizers as well, and they will not break you out.
I honestly think you're the first person I find to bring up systic pimples. It's always been a problem for me, and some people even get confused when I explain it, like it doesn't exist or something. I'm so happy I found your channel ❤️
I don't have acne on my face. It's combination type. I've been using the oil cleansing method for quite some time now. It leaves my skin super soft and smooth and I totally love it. You could massage your choice of oil(s) on to clean skin just before bed and leave it as is. Wake up the next morning to super soft, smooth, plump and firm skin! Continue your morning skin care routine and you're good to go!
this video saved my life. this method worked a lot for me, i just ran out of products but i need to get more ^^ one of the very few methods that actually work. i wanted to cry because i gradually saw a difference 😭❤️ so thank you!!!
I love jojoba oil for my face! I use it to remove my makeup or moisturize my face.
Thank you thank you thank you!!!! Mid 20's acne is hereditary in my family. I had perfect skin throughout my teens and when I was finally smacked in the face by cystic and regular acne I had not a clue on how to go about making it stop. I'm on my 7th day of the oil method which I found out about through you! I think I've found the ratio that works for me and I am so happy! My skin is finally clear enough that my scars actually have time to heal without new blemishes popping up. In fact, it stopped a cyst dead in its tracks the third day in... It disappeared.... WHATTTZZ?! I'm used to those bitches lasting at least 2-3 weeks. Crazy. The purge period was really short and minimal for me. I'm blown away. Thank you thank you thank you for sharing. I can't wait to tell everyone.
I'm 45 and have worked in a spa for ten years. I make an oil cleansing blend of 80%castor oil, 10% jojoba oil,5% rose hip seed oil, 5% jasmine oil and my skin has never looked better. I massage a tablespoons worth onto my skin and then wipe away with a warm washcloth. FYI pick up a 3 pack of microfiber washcloths from your local dollar store. Spa and salon secret we use to remove all traces of makeup and it miraculously removes hair color from your scalp. Enjoy!
Gina Marie Thankyou!
If you apply castor oil on face, won't it grow beard if I am a woman ? :/
Slime Love this is really late, sorry! If you don’t already have hair growing around the mustache area, then no, this will not make hair magically appear. If you do, yes, it will probably make the hair grow a little faster so you might have to remove it more frequently(if you want to remove it at all), but it’s not like you’ll wake up with a full blown mustache every morning 😊
Gina Marie what brand of oils did you buy?
I am waiting for my oils and I am excited to start making my own skincare and I was just looking up what cloths work best with OCM. Do you feel like the microfiber cleans all the oil off? I hate microfiber usually because I feel like it doesn't absorb water. I am going to be making my cleansing oil close to your concoction but I am going to use grape seed oil instead of jojoba. There are some neat sites that sell peptides, actives, antioxidants, and preservatives. I am looking forward to making serums for my friends and family.
I rarely have the patience for videos over 8 mins, let alone beauty/makeup vids. But the explanation was so succinct, the video ended before I even knew! Learned a lot, will try this out. Great first vid!
You can also premix these two oil in smaller bottle for ease of use. I use to to first remove makeup, wipe with cloth, and again to cleanse skin.
My cousin turned me on to this. She uses rose hip oil. It works so well! It does sound so counter intuitive but it works so well (for some people). Just a tip: if you still have spots occasionally I found that putting diluted ( I usually use vitamin E) tea tree oil directly on the spot does wonders. I'm absolutely loving your channel!
Many questions. 1) how often do you do this? Is it ok to do it twice a day? You said you only do it twice a week so what do you do wash with the rest of the time? 2) you said you do it before you shower. In the shower is it okay to get your face wet? Or does this get rid of all the oils you just put on? 3) how often do you put your wash cloth I'm the washing machine? 4) where is your necklace from?
salysilic acid(sp) is a common allergy for a lot of people so it is great that you are pointing this out Cammie! As an Esthetician, I feel a lot of people do not pay attention to skin care. Skin care is key to a flawless finish! Bravo Cammie. Also its important to do 3 steps a day Cleanse,tone and balance!
SHE'S SO BEAUTIFUL IM SO HAPPY YOU STARTED THIS CHANNEL CAMMIE I LOVE YOU SO MUCH
this video has helped me out a lot. I developed acne problems as an adult and couldn't find a way to control it. The first day I tried this method I saw results. It blew
my mind. Not only did it help my acne it made my skin look amazing! I'm grateful for this video.
Best part of my day! Anyone else look forward to this?😊💗
I have to say Cammie, I am just like you. My skin is always very oily and after puberty and in my 20's now, I still have acne. It was super embarrassing because everyone in college walks around spotless. And my acne comes in the form of huge red mountains on my forehead, cheeks, chest, shoulders, and back. I literally have it everywhere! Thank you for introducing me to this product! I actually just bought it online. Hopefully this works out and I can finally have that clear skin I used to have back when I was 12! Love the new channel btw.
Oh cammie, I'm so proud of you! You didn't really play with your hair at all! Congrats!
Xxx
this is one the best oil cleansing videos on youtube. for real. it's so informative and straight forward.
I love how serious, straight-forward, and informative you are cammie! A+++
My skin has recently started to break out and I've tried numerous cleanses to help but nothing worked, I remember you talking about in a past video. The results look amazing, I'll try it out, thank you and congrats on your new channel!
Awesome first vid cam! Now can you do this to me when I get home please? :D Love you!
I have so many things to say!! But you really understand the struggle that is acne prone skin! When you were telling the story about your acne, I could have cried...I dealt with the exact same thing!! That was such an intriguing video and you could tell you know your stuff because you've put that time and effort into battling the acne. So I will definitely do some research and try this method out. I'm 23 and still dealing with acne and I'm tired of it, especially because my mom and sister have beautiful clear skin! Anyway, that was a great first video!!
Hey there, did it work?
I tried everything as well, I haven't tried this yet. I've been using Demi's skin care and it has actually worked but i should try this as well!
I have a terrible skin and tried thousand of products and I've never find something that made my skin better. And last night I tried your method and as of today I can see a little bit of change. It made my acne subside and the marks a little lighter and I love the effect. I'll definitely want to continue using it. Hopefully it works for me this time :)
I usually don't really have the patience to watch UA-cam videos this long; but when it's you talking, the video is too short xD
Same my sister looked at me strangely because I don't have acne and I was just like 'I like her voice.'
+Alondra Feliciano Same af xD (The voice part; I sometimes have acne, but not much (/-\))
Sam Lovatic j
hot and flashy
Awesome video. I was wondering about the end of your video, you said that you only use the oil cleansing method twice a week now, so i was just wondering what you use to wash your makeup off when you aren't using the oil cleaning method, just regular face wash? Thanks a bunch!
I’m allergic to BPO too, it swelled up my face several times, blurred my vision and now I have scars on my neck from when it puffed up. As soon as I heard you were allergic, I subscribed, liked your video and literally bought some of the products you recommended. Thank you!
I started cleansing with lemon essential oil and castor oil in the evening and using only jojoba oil in the morning. I make sure to use soap and a foam cleanser (Origins) to make sure ALL the oil is off my face, and then I use a moisturizer. I know some people don't remove all the oil, but I prefer to remove it all because if there are any impurities trapped in the oil, leaving it on the skin can irritate and cause breakouts. I have been doing this for about two weeks now and this has really worked extremely well for me. As someone who has struggled with acne for over a decade, I finally feel like I have found something that works (which for a very long time I didn't think existed). I have oily skin, and used to have severely clogged up my pores, and with a tendency to get oily throughout the day. But within a few days of using the OCM i noticed it lifted out 90% of my blackheads and whiteheads! Initially I thought the oil was breaking me out when my skin got bumpy, but it was doing the opposite! Also the lemon essential oil helps with my severe acne scarring that I got from trying to clean my pores by pinching my skin which is a terrible idea but its hard to resist when you notice how bumpy your skin is. If anyone wants to try this out (lemon oil + castor oil), PLEASE BE CAREFUL with the lemon essential oil, as it should be diluted properly, using too much and being exposed to UV light can cause skin damage. Thats why I only use the lemon essential oil during the evening, I mix three drops of lemon oil with a teaspoon of castor oil. =)
Can you please do a skin care routine video? You said you use this method for deep cleansing only a couple a days oer week now. It'll be great to see your full skin care routine, thanks!
I started doing this because you mentioned it in a video a long time ago! It cleared up my acne so quickly! I love it!
You look like Ayesha curry , so pretty!
She does
holy crap, i havent ever thought about the possibility of being allergic to salicylic acid! or any other ingredient in most commercial branded acne cleaners. I'm allergic to so many things and I have incredibly sensitive skin. thank you so much for posting this video and talking in detail about how you came to this method! i am absolutely going to look into different oils to find the best combination for my skin. im 26 and its long over due for me to stop dealing w acne!
I cant focus on what you're saying because you look so good !
+Luna I swear you guys just want to embarrass me! :)
I have been using this method for the last month since watching this video and it has changed my skin. So much so I had to come back and comment. I had heard about it years ago but finally getting to see such a simple tutorial made it easy. Thanks girl!
Waiting to get my oils in the mail!!! My face can't wait to try this! 😍
Wow really informative video. I tried olive oil once and it didn't really work out for my skin though >.< However my biggest takeaway from the video is it's important to massage your eyebrows! Thank you and looking forward to more videos from you Cammie!
I use a waterless cleanser every night, but as my last step, I rub bio oil into my face. I have super dehydrated skin and acne scars, and bio oil works so well for both. Only thing that's ever gotten rid of my acne scarring.
bio oil?
Michelle stark www.bio-oil.com/en-us/product/introduction
+Kye Fye So the caster oil being used is that just regular caster oil and then i could buy some bio oil and mix it in and rub it in? i love bio oil!
Taylor cooper I don't know if that would be the same, because you're taking the castor oil & bio oil mixture off your face afterwards, right? I use my bio oil like a moisturizer, so I rub it in really good, and I leave it on while I sleep.
Do I need to wash off the bio oil? Which procedure should I use it? After the moisturizer?
THE OIL IS WORKING!
My doctor had just decided to put me under this new treatment where this little tool vacuums around my face while hot. The lady burned some of my sideburns... And all it did was irritate me. Thank God this works way better.
What do you use on the days you don't use this oil method?
I'm going to try this out and get back to you on how it's been.
Lately my mom has made me feel really insecure about my acne, despite me normally not being that uncomfortable with it. This has caused me to feel extra insecure around my crush and made conversations with her really hard for me. I'm hoping this will help me clear up my face and in turn make feel confident again to talk to the girl I like.
Thank you for posting this video, even though you may want to focus on style and makeup I think you should make a video on confidence and how feeling like you look good transpires in how confident you act around people/crushes, etc.
This is the first time I’m hearing that castor oil can be drying 😱😱
I would have never thought this was your first video!! It's sooo good!!
Do you use anything on your face the days you don't use the OCM?
Yay!!! I've been checking UA-cam all day for this video. So happy that Cammie has her own channel now
Wow that sounds a lot like my skin. It's not as bad anymore but it's still not completely clear. I've actually been doing the OCM for maybe a month now, but with hemp seed oil, and it hasn't seemed to change my skin. It hasn't gotten worse but it hasn't gotten better either so I am trying to do more research. I'm wondering now if maybe I should mix castor oil with the hemp seed oil.
Cheyenne omg I'm in the exact same position. please tell me what you ended up doing and how is your skin now??
I also had pretty similar skin, I started using 1/2 olive oil and 1/2 castor oil with a few drops of tea tree oil. It's the only thing that's cleared mine up. I still get a pimple or two around my period, but they are super small and quickly disappear after putting a tea tree + witch hazel + aloe Vera mixture on them
Maybe try removing all the oil with soap and a foam cleanser after doing the OCM. Leaving in the oil and only using water to clean it can leave behind impurities trapped in the oil (water doesn't take off all the oil). Ive been doing OCM but I remove all of the oil afterwards with soap and water, and then use a moisturizer. hope this helps!
I looooove that you included articles to help us with our specific needs. Very professionally made and I can tell you really thought this video's contents out before posting it.
I've never really had bad acne but lately ive been getting small little bumps on my forehead. After watching this video i decided to try it and my face has been so smooth i love it. thank you cammie!
Whitney Kimball how long did it take you to see results?
A couple trys I would say. I haven't done it in awhile and i should probably go back to it, but it worked pretty fast.
Whitney Kimball did it clear your ance and how long for results
Whitney Kimball hiiii what oils did you use xx
I've been having problems with my skin for the longest time. I'm not the research type of person so I'm glad that you show us or share us this method. I'm going to try this. Thank you for sharing. Hope it works. I'll let you know how it goes.
They are natural products. :)
A lot of the time, Mother Nature is the best doctor.
Glad you overcame that ordeal.
Have been hoping you would start your own channel! The whole video I was nodding with what you were saying - so happy you're doing this! Thanks!! ☺️
you said you use this method every other day, do you use any other cleansers on a daily basis or the days you don't use this method ?
yeah, that's a good question. I want to know too.
I'm interested as well....
Yea I have to clean my face every day because I wear makeup practically every day so I'm wondering what you do to clean your face those every other days?
I'd also like to know your daily face care routine. Also what you use after oil cleansing, do you use a regular moisturizer or something else?
+Jetzy Angulo I am curious about this as well. Makeup removal wipes irritate my skin and cause rashes on my face. So, I would like to know if there is another way of easily removing makeup.
it sounds weird but I didn't have any skin issue until I graduated from college. After I graduated, I moved from the city where my school was in to my home city, and my skin just broke down for no obvious reason, it was so stressful and upsetting cuz I didn't change any product i was using and I couldn't make it better no matter what I do. It's been 3 years from the acne problem bursted and I'm still struggling with it every single day...... I don't know if my problem is the same as what you had, but I'm gonna give your method a try! you will be a true life saver if it works on me too!
Firstly, cammie well done, I just feel like you should know that I can see how much effort you put into that video and it's great. You really thoroughly explained everything.
Secondly, I have a couple of questions. 1. Did Shannon help you film this
2. Will you ever tell us how your teeth are so white, even though you say you're a coffee addict (which if I'm not mistaken stains your teeth)
3. This isn't really a question. But just wanted to say you and Shannon are the highlight of my week and now that I get two videos I'm sure all of the fandom will be sooo happy! Even though your only talking to a camera and that sometimes makes it hard for you to understand your true impact, please remember you're very important to us all.
And sorry for the really long comment. Love ya.
I have had really bad skin for like 5 years or more now and I'm about to finish high school and I'm really starting to worry about not having clear skin in the future. Like you, I've tried basically everything but it hasn't really worked. So I think I'm gonna follow this method, hopefully it works! I hope my skin gets clearer before I start college in a few months. Thanks Cam! Love your channel :)
its weird your alone without Shannon but i love it
I've been trying to find better methods of getting rid of my acne for the longest time! Thank you so much for making this video!
What do you do on nights you don't do the oil method?
THANK YOU! My girlfriend and I are athletes and you know how sweat and dirt gets in your pores then clogs them up. Our acne is bad but its enough to where it bothers us. Watching this video convinced us to go out and by castor oil and use olive oil that we already have. We are going to start your method every other night. Fingers crossed. Hope it works!! Loved your first video. Very helpful. You're the best!! 😁
This may be a stupid question, but is it good to do this from time to time just to clean your skin, even though you don't really have acne? (also, great first video, can't wait for the rest!)
+Julia Goriup absolutely! I still use it and it just moisturizes my skin really well and is great for removing makeup gently.
+Cammie Scott Thanks for answering! Will try this out! (Greetings to you and Shannon from Switzerland!)
+Cammie Scott
Does it matter which kind of oil you use ? I've heard a lot of people said that argan oil is great for your skin as well as your hair. I think I should try both, argan and castor oil and see what best works for me.
+Sugarbabexoxo R. argan oil is incredible for skin and hair! :D
I actually heard you talking about this and tried it out. I was super skeptical about putting oil on my oily skin too, but it works wonders! It also leaves my skin feeling really soft & smooth.
oil can help your hair to grow.... does that mean my lady mustache will grow more too haha
Omg i glad someone asked
oh shit i didnt think about that hahhaha
It's depends on the oils like for example coconut oil helps all the hairs you want to grow like eyebrows and eyelashes but stops pubic and facial hair( little too descriptive but oh well)
how does that work then? lol
April Wallen yeah no, I looked that up because it sounded too good to be true... it is... coconut oil does not help hair grow
I first heard about this method from you in the November favorites video on +nowthisisliving channel and have been using the method ever since. I went from having moderate to severe acne to almost none at all. Thanks for sharing! And for anyone considering trying this method, I would highly suggest it.
If you only use this method 1-2 times per week then what do you do to wash your face & makeup off all the other days..?
congrats on the new channel and your first official video and i wish u good luck for the future i love you cammie mwah
If you only do this twice a week how do you remove your makeup on the other days?
Ka Phong XDDDD
Cammie, I've never felt so understood about my acne, to be honest. I've had the same problem for ages, and it got only worse once I turned 18 because I started getting cystic pimples too -not only they look awful but they also hurt like hell-, and acne products didn't work on me, except I don't think I'm allergic. Doctors always tell you to buy expensive meds, and it just sucks and they don't work, plus I had the same problem as you, oily skin, bad acne, but dry spots and also really sensitive skin so it gets red quite easily, it's just a pain in the arse. Now it's a lot better thanks to meds, mostly, but it's still quite dry in the awful spots, so I'll definately try this. Thank you so much, honestly, it was so hard for me to deal with it because not even teenagers had it as bad as I did. It's nice to know it'll eventually get much better :).
please put a picture in that frame. please.please.
+fleeeeeeeeeeeee I was thinking the same thing. A nice black and white of Cammie and Shannon would be good.
I'm so proud of you for starting an own UA-cam channel. Hopefully I you'll achieve whatever you want to achieve. Love you cam
how did you figure out that those two chemicals were causing your acne ? I would love to determine the cause to stair clear of it as well, I've been having acne since middle school and still dealing with it and I'm about to be 21 .
Definitely going to try this. I have used every product you can think of at drug stores, and have been going to a dermatologist for 3 years. The dermatologist has helped tremendously but my next step would be Accutane which has horrible side effects that makes it not even worth trying. The medicine I'm on now is great but I'm not sure if it will ever clear my acne all the way. Thanks for this video!!!!
Hey Cammie, what's your daily face cleaning routine?
I've been #blessed with fairly healthy skin and I don't wear too much make up so tend to just go with hot water, cloth, cold water. but I wanna step it up a little. Not too keen on all the store cleaners though, they're too full of chemicals for my liking.
+lovesmusic916 lol at the #blessed :D
Cammie good job on your first official video! It won't be long before you get to 1 Million subscribers, just wait on it. Sending good vibes!!
Do u have any ideas for bacne??
Thank you so much for making this! I'm suuuuppppeeer allergic to benzoyl peroxide as well and have horrible acne. This helped so much. Can't wait for more from this channel!!!!!
You explained this so well! I appreciate it! I've been using one oil, grapeseed. seems I need to add castor. I also do essential oils.
you've been very helpful, thank you,
I think I'm going to try this. My skin gets really dry and I even though I don't have too much of a problem with acne, I think this will really help clean my pores. Thanks, Cammie!
3 years from now I can say I was here since the begging 😅❤️
+MariC Tamrz thank you for the support from the start!
So excited to see this video in my sub box. I remember you mentioning this a while ago and I looked into it but never gave it a go, so it's nice to listen to an in depth chat about it! Your skin is so so beautiful and glowing!
Do you use a face cleaner in between the oil cleanse?
Lately, I've been breaking out because of stress and this video is exactly what I needed, thank youuu! :)
Hola! I noticed you mention you only used the method every other day, than a couple times a week, so what did/do you use in between oil cleansing?
this video was so so helpful because ive struggled with my acne for what seems like FOREVER and ive never been able to get rid of it!! i really hope that this method works for me. thanks cammie :-))
+cammie scoott cant tell me who is the name. the second oil. sorry i dont speak english very well i from colombia
+Diana Ibargüen vallejo sweet almond oil!
yo tambn soy de Colombia tu de q parte eres?
de la ciudad de cali
aceite de almendras - I think?! (Google translator!)
+Diana Ibargüen vallejo lee los links que ella adjunto en la info del video. Ahi encuentras la información necesaria sobre los aceites. tambien soy de Colombia.
I´m definately gonna try this method ive struggled so many years using acne products that have only made my acne worse...love your channel!...greetings from Chihuahua, Mexico!
I'm confused. If you only use this method every other day or a couple days a week then what do you do on the days you go without it..?
Usually (from personal experience) it's your normal skincare routine. So, face wash, toner, and moisturizer (or whatever you do) :) Witch Hazel, Tea tree oil and Rose hip oil are amazing to spot treat as well!
oh my god this is amazing. if I ever use a cleanser my skin breaks out more and its just a mess. Right now I'm in the middle of trying out products and its just a mess. I dont have that bad of acne, but i have more than i have ever had before. My skin is always better when I dont even do anything to it. I really hope this method will work!!!!
Ugh I used to take castor oil as a laxative, and now I can't even look at the stuff (it tastes and smells nasty to me). But I've heard of this method on Pinterest, it looks promising. :D
Great first official video! I would've never thought this method would actually work.. Definitely going to try it! Congrats on the new channel, can't wait until monday for video #2!!!!
Can the secondary oil be coconut oil? :)
For me no because when I tried it gave me breakout
coconut oil is extremely comedogenic
Bhawna03 whatever you do don't use coconut oil on your face
Bhawna03 it depends on the person. Some people say coconut oil clogs their pores and caused acne, but I use it occasionally as a cleanser and it works well. My esthetician also confirmed it's generally not going to break you out. Give it a shot :-)
Bhawna03 I use coconut oil on my face, and my skin loves it. But, everyone is different.
