I get zits sometimes and believe it or not, Emu oil moisturizes and gets rid of zits quickly. I couldn't believe until I tried it.

If I have a cystic pimple starting, I apply emu oil and it goes away almost in one night. I buy it from Amazon.

Update my appointment was canceled do to snow storm... They called me this morning saying they were closing early... Made new appointment for Thursday.. I don't think the weather conditions will be any better maybe worse if we have a lot of snow accumulating..

Well so far just very light on and off snow...

However freezing tempts... So far this has been the worst winter I can remember in many years of living upstate NY...

I'm thinking a cyst - they can be so persistant! Smiley Sad

My derm always tells me to call right away to get in and take care of it when I feel one come on.

Hope you can get in and have them take a look! Looks to be lots of snow - we've only had a mere 4" all before Christmas and our mountains are pretty bare as well, not a good ski season this year in the PNW! So far rather mild here, but I believe they predicted this year would be this way!

good luck!

Thanks so much Fifi for you kind words.. I hope I can get to see the Derma Dr tomorrow...

Predicting 12 degrees Brrrr. The sun is out today but tempts were below freezing this morning.. Only predicting 8 degrees for today...

Cannot remember such bitter cold weather that I can remember..

Only good thing snow fall was only a few inches during the night and early morning..

Live Upstate NY mid Hudson Valley area...

It's the bitter cold and ice that scares me more then anything... Town does plow our road but our Property is large and needs private plowing... Our land is fairly up hill and dangerous where we have our garage....

The man that takes care of that also sands area's that are more dangerous to drive on

Do have an SUV.

We were scheduled to attend a large family gathering outside Chicago last weekend and decided to cancel due to the magnitude of storm coming and fear of not getting out and back to Seattle. My cousin, wife and his three kiddo's were stuck on plane at O'Hare for two hours, deplaned and reboarded a couple more times! Two kids in college and other is a teacher so they did not make it back in time for school Tuesday to Atlanta! Glad we elected to stay put! You'd laugh at our measly snow; when we get it it, usually quite icy and we are a very hilly city and suburbs and although have SUV's it's a mess!

ANYWAY, hope you got your "zit" checked out Smiley Wink My derm now has me on a RX Retin A with an antibiotic in it -very expensive but insurance covers, for nowSmiley Wink and this has helped with my cysts, as well as lines and aging!!! So weird as I don't get and never did acne and it's not hormone related! Mine does relate to stress as I've figured it out.

Stay warm!
