I decided I didn't care about trying to cover up my acne, I'd just keep treating it and wearing eye makeup, but I found this recipe and I wanted to try it out but I didn't want to risk adding more oil to my face. What do you think? Would it hurt to try it? Would it just make things worse? Thanks!

Coconut oil marvelous! I use it for everything. It does help with acne. It will not make it worse.

Olive oil works too. Just avoid Lavender Oil and Mineral oil as the molecular structure can't sink into the skin without clogging the pores. (They aren't compatible with the natural oils in our faces)
