After my acne has gone away it has left marks. how do i get rid of the marks?
Did you pick at your acne alot? You may have left scars on your face... try putting vita-E (in liquid form) on your face... that may help. Essential oils can help with scaring, helichrysum oil. Once your acne has gone away, the skin still has layers that need to heal. Eventually, the scars will fade. Make sure you use a non-comedogenic (non oily) sunscreen to avoid overexposure to the sun which slows healing.

Will Rosemary essential oil hurt a cat?
For cats in particular, you need to be careful about what oils you use on them or expose them to because cats do not metabolize things the same way as dogs (or humans). This means that the liver in cats cannot break down or metabolize certain drugs, medications, and even some essential oils.If you are interested in using essential oils for your cat, you should do so only as directed and/or supervised by your veterinarian. In general, the essential oils you should AVOID using with your cat include oils that are high in salicylates or phenols, such as: Basil, Cinnamon Bark, Clove, Laurus Nobilis, Melaleuca Quinquenervia, Mountain Savory, Oregano, Tea Tree, Thyme and Wintergreen.BUT, lavender, copaiba, helichrysum, and frankincense are all SAFE.
