Hi, KatCat!

I was wondering how you are doing w/ broken cap treatments? I wanted to make another suggestion....I know you already like argan oil, but wanted to suggest the marula. GoW has it, but they do not have an extensive write up about it.

Anyway, I just got this, maybe about 2 weeks ago, and since I've been using it, any teensy red imperfection (left from hormonal acne scarring) I've had has really faded! I only had like 2, but still, I don't need to touch up w/ concealer at all! (I do still use rose hip seed, and that's also supposed to help.) Both of these are high in vit. c., boosting celluar turnover/building collagen.

I'm just wondering if marula might also help w/ the broken caps?

From African Botanics: "This multipurpose oil contains powerful antioxidants, high
concentrations of nutrients, minerals and essential fatty acids that
protect against environmental aggressors, reverse photodamage, boost
cellular activity, hydrate at the deepest levels and repair the skin." (underline = mine)

Doesn't that sound like it might penetrate enough to heal broken caps to you?

Another poster had mentioned how healing marula was, and I thought I would like to try it, though my issues are practically non-existent. But even though my problems are/were small, I notice enough of a change. It must be from the marula!
