Jenny McCarthy Loves Emu Oil

The emu oil craze is starting to sweep across celebs everywhere, first it was Zac Efron using it for his appendectomy scar and now it’s Playboy star and actress Jenny McCarthy. She told Michigan Avenue Magazine: “Emu oil. It’s great for anti aging and it’s my favorite thing to put on my face because there are no perfumes or dyes.”

She’s a smart lady for recognising how great emu oil can be for your skin. It plumps and firms the skin preventing wrinkles and smoothing out fine lines. And like she says it has no additives or anything that could potentially be harmful to your skin, this means that even those with the most sensitive of skin can use it. The base oil isn’t for everyone, however, some people may find that Emu Oil Day and Night creams maybe better for their skin. They contain other active ingredients such as Vitamin E and tend to be a lot less oily than putting the oil straight onto your face. Still all natural this could be the alternative for those with oily skin.

There is a misconception that Emu Oil cannot be used by anyone prone to spots or oily patches, this is untrue. There are various products out there that won’t make the skin too oily and all are non-comodegenic which means they don’t clog pores. Emu Oil is in fact very good for acne.

Emu Oil Well Eye Cream

I’ve been having some nice late nights recently and before my little photoshoot yesterday (see last post) I decided I needed to get rid of the bags under my eyes and ensure that my foundation went on smoothly. I have some Emu Oil Well eye cream that I decided to use, it’s manly for getting rid of wrinkles, plumping up skin and reducing bags from under the eyes. I’m more than happy to stop the wrinkles before they even appear so this stuff is a life saver.

Like you’d expect with an oil it was quite…oily. However, it didn’t just sit on my skin it absorbed quickly and the softness that followed was hard to explain. My eyelids and under my eyes were silky smoothe and a pleasure to touch. I decided to stroking my eyelids wouldn’t get me very far and moved on to looking in the mirror. I guessed it would take a little while before my eyes looked fresh and shiny again but that wasn’t the case! I already looked more awake and my face was ready for the application of foundation.

Regular readers will know my love of Emu Oil products and this one is on par with all the others. A brilliantr product, great for anti-aging amongst other things. I’ll let you know in 20 years or so if it has worked on my wrinkles.
