I stopped it because, even though it gave me gorgeous skin, it really only seemed to clear my acne about 70%. I knew there had to be something that would perform better for me. in a sense carleys is a form of oil cleansing in that it doesn't use harsh soaps and strip the skin of all oils. the soap used will actually moisturize and leave a clean but yet moisturized feeling. And the moisturizers i use by them have healthy oils too. Personally the oils and the washcloth method seemed to irritate my skin a little too much, the wash clothes more then the oil. feel free to email at prissygreen at gmail.com if you have any more questions! always happy to help! i truly hope one of these treatments work for you!!

You seemed to have such a positive result with the OCM early on so I'm left to wonder what happened to make you stop? I think you started the OCM in early-mid 2009 (with what appeared to be a positive result) but now i see in later 2009 you've switched to using Carley's method, instead. Before I consider the latter purchase, please give me some insight as to what went wrong with the me OCM. Thanks. Jennifer Hi Karissa-

I also let her know that she doesn't have to use the treatment in the shower, I don't shower everyday, I didn't today, my skin gets to dry, and I don't like to wash my hair everyday, so I just used the treatment on my face via sink, and then washed my face with the washcloth via the sink too.

I will one up you and say that I don't go to the mailbox with at least some powder on! Acne can be so defeating. I will have an outbreak and feel really bad about myself. Then they clear, and all of a sudden, the sky seems bluer! I realize I shouldn't tie so much into the niceness of my skin, but it's so hard not to. It seems like a basic thing to want clear skin, and I'll keep trying until I find the perfect solution. Hopefully this is it! I did notice in the instructions that you are supposed to use the treatment in the shower once a day. I gave birth to my second daughter a month ago, and I have to admit, daily showers are not always possible. I will try, though! Anything to get clear skin! Can I post pics in my comments?

I know how hard it must have been to take "bare boned" pics. You're absolutely stunning, sweetie, inside and out! I am dying to try this line of products, but Pevonia seems to be working for me right now(thanks bunches!). However, I am bookmarking this in case my skin becomes immune. I woke up yesterday with 2 hellacious cystic pimples on my chin and jawline and cursed Yaz and Pevonia all damn day. I'm chalking the pimps up to the beer I drank this weekend, mixed with the humidity. We'll see. OK, maybe I'll order the mask LOL I'm not currently using one and haven't in about 2 weeks. Look forward to your future pics, K! I am so proud of you, Karissa!!! I know how hard it must have been to take “bare boned” pics. You’re absolutely stunning, sweetie, inside and out!

My son has been struggling with acne for over 10 years. When he is on anti-biotics, then his acne is under control. One month after finishing the pills, his acne returns and we head back to the Dermatologist. If this works for you, I will definitely buy some for my son. Good luck to you and Andrea!
