Rep Power: 21 ![]() | I would be csreful tanning your face if you are using a salicylic Acid product.. You could have contra-indications with UV and an aggressive salicylic acid.. I would suggest using an SPF made for the face at least a 15 factor.. C |

Rep Power: 19 ![]() | I have read that retinol helps clear up skin.... and that the scientists really don't know the true mechanism that helps clear the skin...they have three ideas that seem valid. 1) the retinol increases cell turn-over 2) it inhibits sebum production 3) and it...um, o i forgot the third...???? the new and improved meltdbutta |

Rep Power: 19 ![]() | Speaking of retinol, have you ever heard of the egg yolk mask??? It is a middle eastern thing.... they use the egg yolk as a mask, and let it dry for about 15 minutes... High amounts of vitamin E and A are said to be in the egg yolk, which is supposed to be good for your skin... has anybody heard of this??? the new and improved meltdbutta (eggie) |

Rep Power: 21 ![]() | I have done egg yolk masks several times when the skin gets an oil bulid up.. It is a wonderful mask Melty.. Besure the eggs are a little cool when making the facial mask.. Your skin will feel very very tight after you use it.. |
