there is a home glycolic peel for scarring that specifically entails emu oil...you have to use the glycolic only on the scars about 2 - 3 times a week...i've tried this for a while and it seems the emu oil enhances the product...
the problem with emu oil is that it gets cold quick...thus, if it's in the plastic bottle, you have to microwave it before use...
otherwise, it leaves the skin very moisturized and soft..

Several years ago I bought a large bottle of emu oil and used it daily. Never really saw any improvements in my moderately dry skin. Many believe it is only "hype" dealing with the wonders of emu and claim that jojoba oil is actually better and more closely resembles your skin's own natural moisturizers. I am going to pick up some jojoba soon but for several years I have been using organic coconut oil which I like better than the emu oil. I use the coconut for everything...makeup removal, body moisturizer and also eat the coconut oil which I believe is important. Drinking enough water daily is the best thing you can do for your skin.

i agree..i've switched to other herbal moisturizers and found that they work better....i've only used the emu oil on the scars after the peel was washed off..it has a soothing effect but that's about it...
i was afraid of using anything else on the peeled areas because the emu oil was part of the package.
