Oatmeal Face Wash For Scars

So from the age of 17 all of a sudden I went from having a perfectly normal brown complexion to being covered in pimples, It left me with horrific scars, that looked like side burns because I only broke out by my cheekbones...

 

Anyway I've been looking for a really good regime that I can stick to, to help fade any remaining little scars because I seem to have an incessant picking problem..I do it while watching tv, when i'm nervous, when i'm doing nothing -__- anyway..I didn't manage to get a picture of how bad those scars used to be but I did manage to get a picture of when I just started this regime and the after.

I did some research and tested out many different products, and the only thing that has evened out my complexion has been using just basic Rolled Oats on my face...

Not only has it evened out my skin tone and faded my scars, It's left my skin so soft feeling, it looks so bright and smooth! It removes make up well and you can use it everyday.

So what I do is

1. Take a handful of oats like so..
 
2.I then wet it slightly and use the milky stuff to wet my face which feels so nice! and then I either scrub my face with the oatmeal or a mixture of scrubbing and then leave it to set on my face like a mask while I run a bath and get my clothes ready..So it gets a little dry and tight feeling.

3.And then I wash it off with warmish water..

4. I take a flat cotton pad and wipe my face dry because using a rough towel isn't good on the face, using the cotton pad gently dries the face without causing any damage to the skin.

5. I then take some witch hazel (Picture 1) and use it as an astringent on the face or I use my Rose water that I make myself as a toner. The Witch hazel will tighten your pores and minimize breakouts and large pores.

6. And the last step for the scars, (picture 2) I take Pure tea tree oil and Olive oil, using only two drops of tea tree oil I dilute it with olive oil and apply it to any scaring I have. The tea tree oil helps to clear acne because It's an anti bacterial and helps with healing.

7. Then to moisturize the rest of my face I use Ponds cream (Picture 3) which I've been using all my life I recommend it to everyone It's the best thing ever!! It has Vitamin E inside of it and Sun protection, The vitamin E is amazing for scars as well!

Here is a before and after I used the Oatmeal scrub

So as you can see this regime seems to be really helping me and I use it everyday or every other day I also have another cream I sometimes use in between which I will review for you! But this is it!!

Hope you found it helpful 
Until next time
