I havent been pulling for very long but have noticed that my facial skin is more pink, sometimes red (?!) and I wonder if this is from increased circulation or something else.
I was reading on one oil pulling site that a man looked twenty years younger from oil pulling.
Has anyone notice changes in your facial skin from oil pulling.
Also curious if anyone has reduced scars from oil pulling.
thanks!!- Re: Anyone notice facial skin change... sanctuary2

MoreThis is a reply to # 855,937Hey 171 --
I just posted a reply to AP about OP increasing circulation (her question had to do with bleeding gums). But, I do think that OP does something to stimulate blood circulation -- especially in the mouth/head area. A lot of people report a glow -- improved skin, etc. -- and I think OP must revive circulation as it seems to help tone, wrinkles, color, etc. (Someone I met the other day was shocked when I told them I was 39, and I'd like to think that has only a little to do with my immaturity problem!)
I wonder if pulling all the toxins out of the blood makes "room" for more good blood cells, etc.?
One frustrating thing about OP is that there is so little we know about how it works...
Happy pulling!
Laura

This is a reply to # 856,125Hi there!
I hate to break it to you, but I still have a lot of "room to grow," Beth! ;)
The weather has been FABULOUS here in beautiful Richmond, VA. Just perfect. The whole city seems awash in brightly blooming azaleas. The girls are talking up a storm and they love "fwowas" (flowers!). We go up to my mom's this weekend for a couple of weeks with her, which will be fun. Then the heat should set in -- please remind me in a month or so how much I was looking forward to warm weather....
Hope you are well. Are you OP every day these days? I am stepping up to 2x/day if possible...I feel like I am seeing some Iodine detox skin-wise, and OP seems to help...

This is a reply to # 856,168Hey,
I LoVE warm (even HOT) weather! When others around me are "b*tchin'" about it, I remind them of their complaining about the cold..LOL. It is few and far between that I complain about it, because here in Michigan, we do not see enough of it!
I have not oil pulled in a while...truth to be told :$...but I am going to begin a Colon Cleanse tomorrow and will attempt to do the oil pull also, again. I have had issues with being 'tired' in the mornings (get out of bed, at last minute) and have a friend who is doing iridology in class right now. She did my eyes and after class this past weekend suggested that I may not be getting enough oxygen. So, I am going to be doing 'breath of fire' exercises, as well as some cardio and see if that doesn't help. I need Energy to do anything, Before work. After work, it is a Little better BUT not great!
Wish me luck?!...:D
Have a great trip to your mom's. Be safe. OH and I love "fwowas" too :D. I do love the spring, second most!

This is a reply to # 856,171Beth,
I do find that OP gives me energy -- hence the warning not to do it late at night so as not to disrupt sleep. However, I rarely get to wake up and OP first thing. I look forward to the day when I will be able to OP before eating, etc. As it stands now, I OP when the girls nap (like now) and by then I have had coffee and a little food.
I think that OP really helps with allergies, which, even when they don't make me feel downright horrible, have a way of keeping me low-energy. On such a subtle level that I don't really "notice" it. I also have been iodining in the past couple of months -- I am sure that Iodine detox can make me feel a little slow, but overall it seems to help a lot too.
The other thing, of course, which helps with energy is food. I do so much better when I don't eat processed carbs.
And then there's coffee....
Hope you are having a pull-icious day!
Laura

This is a reply to # 856,108Hi,
I've been oping for a month and a week and i have seen a lot of improvement in my skin i suffered from sebhorric excema which was under my eyes, from my nose to mouth creases and on bridge of nose, and i can honestly say that its 90% clear, but ive also been supplementing with omega 369 oil. So i don't know if oping would keep it clear without supplement and i'm not stopping to find out, i love it.- Never would have believed had it not... aggiepoke

This is a reply to # 856,374I have only been OPing for a week. And two days ago a coworker said you're doing your make up differently, aren't you? Clueless, I said...no, why? She said your face seems to have such an even tone, very healthy, and with almost a glow. I started to laugh and I said NO WAY... so I found a mirror to look in to and whatdoyaknow...my skin does look like everything she said. I look hot everyone... I just look hot. Let's call it like it is...we are hotties, us OPers. lol
Very pleased. :)
Keep pulling friends,

This is a reply to # 855,937Today is my 11th day of Oil Pulling. I have been OPing twice a day with sesame oil. I started OPing with the hope that it would clear my KP (keratosis pilaris) - little red bumps - that cover my arms and other parts of my body.
At first I noticed that my skin felt softer, my heels especially weren't as rough and dry. My KP seemed to be improving. And my lips weren't peeling at all anymore. However, on about the 8th day of OPing I started to break out in a rash that I've had only two times before in my life. It is a type of itchy psoriasis, which in my case had been triggered by an allergic reaction to wood. I haven't been exposed to wood at all recently, so I am suprised that I have this rash again. It seemed as though my skin was getting better, and then almost over night I broke out with this rash. It doesn't seem to be getting any worse or better at this point.
Maybe I am having a detoxing reaction due to all the toxins leaving my body through the OPing? I plan to continue OPing twice a day and hopefully it will clear up soon! It is a very itchy, flaky and red rash that is on my face and various small spots on my body, so the sooner it's gone the better!
* If anyone has any insights or suggestions, I would be grateful. *- Re: Anyone notice facial skin change... yemane

This is a reply to # 856,732Well after OPing for a week, my face got flaky, dry and I broke out too. I now know it was from detoxing. I was doing it twice a day which I probably should've started out slower. Now I'm doing it everyother day.- Re: what oil are you using? NM #17163 17 y 40,572

This is a reply to # 856,732Hi MK,
I had a similar experience in that in my second week I got a terrible breakout -- not really a rash, but some horrible zits that were enormous and yuck. I think I was using sesame at the time, too. The breakout cleared up far more quickly than I would have predicted, though. I had gotten improved skin/skin tone, and then this breakout, and then things kept moving forward again. I do think it was a "healing crisis" and I am glad I kept going with OP. As they say, "better in than out"!
However, it may be that you are stirring some stuff up with OP and that it can't exit quickly enough. I cannot remember if I was OP once or twice a day then (knowing my all-or-nothing personality, I was probably doing it a couple of times a day at the beginning, actually...). I do recommend switching to once a day for a while -- just sticking to the basic protocol, which you are already doing with the sesame oil -- but I do think we can lessen the severity of symptoms to a degree by moderating the process.
Maybe try putting the same oil on your rash to keep drawing the stuff out and increase circulation in general by wiping it off with a hot, damp towel.
I am sure it will clear up soon, and thanks for sharing about your experience.
Good luck and happy pulling,
Laura- Re: Anyone notice facial skin change... blondehart

This is a reply to # 856,999I am loving OPing. I feel as if my skin/eyes/teeth look brighter and healthier. For this alone, it's worth it. I've been doing it about 3 weeks, using VCO, sunflower or Castor oil and oil of oregano.
