AHHH i cant do it anymore, thats it...today i mixed Grapeseed oil with castor and my skin got sooooooooooo dry and SUPER red and very very tight...im killing my skin!!!
I cant beleive this is happening to me...
I ordered Jurlique cleaning cream...or whatever the name is from EDS, cheapest price on the net IMO, I will use that instead, will that work well with aspirin mask? is that cream used as a cleanser or exfoliator or moisturizer? what are some instructions on using it? thnx

Oh, ejay I'm sorry the OCM didn't work! Is your skin sensitive in general or just to castor oil? Have you tried the aspirin mask yet? I would do a patch test because for sensitive skin and normal it will burn a little. Just FYI the aspirin mask should NOT be scrubbed on your face. It should be applied with your fingers or a spatula- no scrubbing. I mix honey in with mine to help it stick to the skin and yogurt for that nice lactic acid smoothing effect.
I don't know which would be best the aspirin mask or the JCC. They both are pore treatments not cleansers. Cleanse your face first with a gentle cleanser then moisten it with warm water to open the pores for treatment. Put some JCC in your palm and dab it on your face, then using your fingers and palms press and release to create a suction-like effect. It will draw gunk out from deep in the pores so they will not all just come out the first time. Your pores will actually look dirtier for awhile, each time more will be drawn out until the pore is clean. So do not freak if you have more blackheads/pimples the next day- that means it is working! 
The aspirin mask could be applied next, as the salicylic acid is oil soluble and will exfoiliate within the pores. Just rinse after the aspirin mask and spray on a toner like ACV.
Then apply a moisturizer of your choice (but one that is non-comedogenic)  |

| I have had great results when I use asprin mask first then follow up with Jurlique face wash cream. Asprin mask help losen blackheads and the face wash cream cleans them out. |
