What are the benefits of Vitamin E?
I have Vitamin E oil that I have been rubbing on my face for acne scars. Is this really going to work? How long does it take?
Should I be upping my intake of Vitamin E elsewhere in vitamins or foods I eat?
Thanks !!!
My Natural Hair Transition?
Im 16, Going into my Senior Year in High School.I've decided to go natural because I am a shampoo girl and I really care about hair growing to its full potential. I've only been natural for six months. I'm debating on the BC, but I do not mind cutting my hair.I've actually cut it twice since December and it grows right back. I believe if its damaged, there is no use of holding on to it. My hair is shoulder length and it looks very healthy and thick, but I no longer want to get relaxers. I have been getting them since I was 3 because My mother has jet black long curly and wavy hair and I came out with this thick coarse brown hair. She did not know what to do with it so she gave me a perm. Now I have a year before I go off to college, and I want to be all natural. I use tea tree oil and vitamin E oil instead of grease because it contails mineral oil and petrolum & clogs the pores. I use Creme Of Nature's Argon Oil Sulfate- Free Shampoo & Creme of Nature's Intensifying Conditioning Shampoo. I flat iron my hair once a month because I love wearing it down.i bought me some Chi flat iorns Other than that I wear sewins, micros or braids. My mother wants me to get a perm but I wont. My hair is really strong and doesnt break off, but my scalp will be ridiculously dry and flaky. I'm also taking Hair, Skin & Nail supplements. Yes, I'm very passionate about my hair :) I use edge control but i make sure they contain no alcohols. I deep condition my hair everytime I wash it.What I was wondering was, for any other naturals, what products are good that you recommend? I plan on going to the health food store soon, and I need to know? I dont know much about Carol's Daughter, Miss Jessies or ecostyler gel.
Does applying vitamin E oil help fight acne and acne scars?
I've heard that applying vitamin E oil to a scar on your body helps heal it and makes it appear not scarred. I was wondering if it would also work for acne on my face because I know oily things are normally bad if you're trying to heal acne. Does anyone know or has anyone tried this method and got good results? Thanks!
How should i stretch my ear?
Alright so i got my ears pierced about 2 months back. They told me i should wait 2 months before stretching. It's been 2 months and about an extra week. So i went into my piercing shop today and grabbed some 8g earrings, but I didn't ask them to help me put them in because i was in a bit of a hurry. Anyway, i heard jojoba oil is good for your ears. Should i use it before i stretch, or after?
Also i know it's good to put them in while you're in the shower. However i don't want to take a shower just for that. I was thinking i would soak them in my sea-salt solution (from when i was cleaning them for the initial piercing, still have half a gallon left). One time to clean them, with the earrings in, and then when i'm ready to do the stretch, just take my earring out, soak each ear a little in the warm/hot salt water. Then put a little bit of anti-bacterial hand soap (non-scented and all that of course) on the earring. Then just pop em in.
I assume i'll know if they weren't ready and i get a blowout. Also, are there any other tips you can give me? My ear seems clean. They don't hurt like they use to. They're not oozing anything.
Also as an end note, i got them pierced at a 10g. The professional piercers at the parlor (they ONLY do piercings at this place, no tattoos) said 2 months and i should be good to stretch, they even said yeah i should be fine when i went back in to get the earrings today. I got vitamin e oil instead of jojoba (the store i went to was out of jojoba).
OK since the only answer i got was "Don't do it."
Let me state a few things. I have thought twice, more than twice actually about it. I don't care if certain people don't like them, i like them and plenty of girls like them. I don't feel the need to revolve my life around what will get me a girlfriend. It's how i want to look. I got my ears pierced at a 10g SPECIFICALLY for this. Also, i know the long term implications. I expect to have them forever (i treat piercings like tattoos, if you get them, they're a life-long commitment, even the small ones that can close up).
Also the whole "how do you think it'll look when you're 80!?!" argument is the stupidest thing ever. How good do you think you'll look without them when you're 80?
@sasha and the person under her. I wasn't yelling, i was just saying :o
sorry if i came off a bit angry. That's just how i feel about the "when you're 80" argument, and i was just explaining that so people don't keep giving me answers that say "Don't do it." I respect your opinion, in fact one of my best friends thinks that they're dumb. I apologize if it seemed like i was getting really mad. I'm not that temperamental ;)
I use lemon juice in evening,vitamin e oil over night to treat some acne scars – good or counterproductive?
Looking for informed answers if possible.I am using them to treat a few acne scars but just need to know if using them both is sensible every evening and night?.I do rinse lemon juice off before applying vitamin e oil and I am seeing improvement but I dont want to do more harm than good.
Thanks.
Is it ok to mix vitamin E oil with my sunscreen?
I crashed on my bike almost two weeks ago and 18 stitches later, I don't want to have a nasty scar on my chin so I was hoping to get some input on good things to put on the scar so it heals quickly. I was told sunscreen is important, but so is vitamin e oil, hence mixing them together. Let me know if something worked well for you. Thanks.

Does vitamin e really help with stretch marks?
I was wondering if vitamin e really helped reduce, fade or get rid of stretch marks. I used to be big when I was younger, but I just lost about 40 pounds and I have a few light stretch marks on my hips and backs of my arms. I didnt know if vitamin e oil would help or not..
Thanks for your time.
