Actually, my older sister took me to the drug store once, loaded me up with six or seven products, showed me how to use them all and I never did it again :) I've been lucky that I've never had bad acne or skin problems so that helps with the whole "I wash my face when I shower, or when I'm particularly gross" cleaning method.<br/>I've seen a couple people talking about this oil cleaning method. If I feel like I need to actually clean my face in the future I am totally going to try this! Thanks! I totally missed the “girl school” lesson on make up and face cleaning routines.

I use about 20% caster oil and the rest olive oil. I have always had lots of skin problems (dryness, exzema, allergic reactions to makeup, etc) but my skin has been amazing this past year. I no longer need a moisturizer and only have have breakouts during "certain times of the month." I’ve been using OCM for about a year now. I use about 20% caster oil and the rest olive oil.

I normally do it every other day though and also just use it in the shower/bath...that way I can "steam" my face without a wash cloth. If my face is too oily afterwards I use either a wash cloth or some baking soda to get the excess off. It is so relaxing though. Great article!

By the other glass oil bottles and measuring cups and cooking utensils. I'm guessing any store that sells cooking supplies might have something similar.

Every once in awhile I'll just lightly wipe off, but I just try not to scrub. Or you could just use OCM each night your wear it. Pregnancy was not good for my face either the first 6 weeks! Not horrible teenage stuff, but bumpy and red. I ended up using a sugar scrub a few times a week during the worst of it to help exfoliate. <br/><br/>I've also started using coconut oil as a moisturizer which has been working great now that the air is drier up here. Doesn't leave my face greasy like I thought it would either! (It's kind of a weird solid oil if you've never used it) Beth – I normally don’t have a problem with makeup coming off after steaming my face with a hot cloth a few times.

When I got married, my husband hopped into bed each night at bed time while I did my little toothbrush, contacts, face cleaning routine (using clearasil or something). My face broke out according to my hormonal calendar and not depending on how clean my face was. Anyway, to spend less time in the bathroom before bed, I started to skip cleaning my face at night (I didn't wear that much make up anyway). At the same time, I switched my evening lotion from Eucerine to organic coconut oil. I was surprised to note that my face didn't break out anymore than it had before and the coconut oil actually healed any infections. I should exfoliate a little more often, but other than that, my skin is healthier and clearer than ever, and I don't have ANY cleaning routine--just my coconut oil application at bedtime.
