Finding a Fresh Face | Featuring.... Oregano

Clearing up acne the natural way seems hopeless, but you'll try anything at this point, right? I'm excited to share this with you, because it was passed on to me and changed my life. 

I never really had acne growing up, I was one of the lucky ones I guess. I thought I had made it out of the acne zone when BOOM, I turned 30 and zits popped up all over my chin. And since I'm 30, they SCAR... these purple gashes in my chin that just DO NOT go away. Since, I've been micro-needling to fix that, and it's working. But I'm a preventative kind of girl and I wanted to let you guys in on a little secret that has not only cleared up my acne, but fixed my dark spots as well. 

The best part about these supplements is that they also have other MAJOR benefits and it's as easy as taking a little pill. I know, you're used to adding Oregano to your spaghetti, and it works there too. But, derived from the plant and flowers of oregano, oil of oregano isn’t the normal pantry staple that you're used to. . The best benefits comes from two plant varieties of wild oregano: thymus capitatus and origanum vulgare. When buying oil of oregano supplements, make sure they come from one of those two varieties.

Oil of oregano is used to kill bacteria, viruses, fungus and yeast. The oil gets much of its healing properties from carvacrol and thymol. Carvacrol is a pretty powerful antimicrobial that fights staphylococcus bacteria and thymol is naturally antiseptic. And is actually the main ingredient in most mouthwashes. Besides those, oil of oregano also contains calcium, magnesium, zinc, iron, potassium, copper, boron, manganese, vitamins A and C, and niacin. SOURCE

Taking an Oregano Supplement daily will not only clear your skin, but it has other benefits too! 

Boosts immune system.

Rids the body of fungus.

Reduces infections.

Can clear sinuses.
