| Author | Topic: Help! Harmful aircon? |
| ongwb78 05-18-2003 04:04 AM | Dear Wai, I'm working as a computer engineer and always spend time in computer rooms with very strong aircon. Thus my skin gets dehydrated a lot. Its been 2 weeks of the sample diet. I've yet to see improvement in the acne. Besides trying to consume enough calories, I also like to reduce my skin's dehydration. (though I'm not sure whether it contributes to the new breakouts) Some questions on applying oil on face: - what type of oil do you recommend for oily skin? - can olive oil be applied on face? - how much oil to apply? Thanks you for your time and effort! ![[Smile]](../smile.gif) |
| ongwb78 05-18-2003 04:38 AM | Sorry Wai, I've got a few more questions to ask : I still having acne(cystic type) while maintaining the sample diet for 2 weeks. - Would like to hear your opinion: Do you think I should aplly oil on my face? - If yes, do I apply all over or specific areas? |
| RRM 05-22-2003 09:25 AM | Hey Rookie, The aircon may indeed dehydrate your skin, which will result in a higher sebum production, which aggravates your acne. Protecting your skin against dehydration is essential. Consuming enough calories is essential as well. quote:link quote:Yes. quote:A few drops. They are best applied on a somewhat moist skin (after having towelled your skin after having taken a bath / shower). quote:Absolutely. quote:All over, including the oily areas. Don't give up; sometimes it takes way over 2 weeks. RRM |
