Re: Almost cured by evening primrose oil

I haven't posted my results since they are not very conclusive yet (I'm guessing that's the case for most people that tried it here). Here's my results so far.

I bought the NOW brand 1300 mg EPO (since it's cheaper than the other one- don't have to pay shipping and tax). I only took it for 12 days so far. I take 4 a day, which is 5200 mg a day.

During the first week, I noticed the skin on my lips peeled less/took longer to peel. This was not a placebo effect since I've tried lots of other supplements before with no effects. It really did seem better during the first week, but the skin wasn't cured. A thin layer of hard skin still grows back on top, but the peeling was slower. It seemed to be getting better.

However, during the 2nd week, I'm not seeing much results anymore. Maybe it's just the outer layer of skin finally peeling off, but there seems to be more peeling this 2nd week. Maybe it's not working anymore? I have to keep taking it to find out. So far no side effects. I've also been using Vitamin E on my lips during this time (oil from the softgel) which seems like a good moisturizer. Curious about other people's results. My lips still seem a little better but it's not cured yet. Tweet
