I must admit I was a bit worried because when I put it on my face, my face turned bright red and became pretty hot. \u00a0I wasn&#8217;t sure what I had done to myself, but I used your avocado oil on top of the Aloe Vera Gel and lightly rubbed it in. \u00a0After about five minutes the redness and heat went away. \u00a0I felt as though I had just had a face lift when I looked at myself in the mirror. Maybe you have to be old and wrinkly to get the same results, but I had a wonderful time that day as I ran my errands. \u00a0Just about everyone I talked to that day commented on how great I looked. \u00a0Comments like &#8211; &#8216;you don&#8217;t even have those bags under your eyes anymore&#8217;. \u00a0That was a difficult comment to hear because I wasn&#8217;t aware I had dark bags under my eyes.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>That result didn&#8217;t last a long time, however. \u00a0Two-three days later I looked tired again.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>I have used the Aloe Vera Gel regularly (twice a week) and I can&#8217;t believe the results. \u00a0Twice weekly because I don&#8217;t want the tired look to come back and it hasn&#8217;t. \u00a0I&#8217;ve looked &#8216;tired&#8217; since I was about 60 and while friends sometimes commented on my &#8216;tired&#8217; look, I didn&#8217;t feel tired so it was a bit frustrating. \u00a0That&#8217;s all gone now, thanks to you.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>I now use the avocado oil over the Aloe Vera Gel and my skin looks smooth, shiny and very elegant. \u00a0I look 20 years younger and a few million dollars richer. \u00a0My skin now has that dewy, shiny look that I used to love. \u00a0It had a dry, parched, wrinkly look that I was resigned to.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>When I don&#8217;t want such a shiny look &#8211; which is when I get dressed in the evening for a special event I use your dry milk idea and put dried milk on a tissue and use it the way I used to use powder. \u00a0It has a little whitish look right after I put it on, but in a few minutes that is gone and I look mat-finish great.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>My problem is &#8211; I was not able to find organic avocado oil. \u00a0Do you have a source for this? Please advise soonest because I have become a total organic freak from reading and trying stuff on your blog. \u00a0You will probably hear from me often, but please, if you publish my notes to you (emails when I learn the computer), please, please, don&#8217;t use my name.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Thanks,<\/div>\n<div>____________________________________________________________<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bettina-network.com\/blog\/donation-page\">Learn More About How We Use Your Donation!<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[give_form id=&#8221;3763&#8243;]<\/p>\n<p>______________________________________________________________<\/p>\n<p><strong>Want to join us?<\/strong> Have a home that you want to open to become one of <strong>Bettina Network&#8217;s Hedge Schools?<\/strong> Call us and lets talk &#8211; or email us.<\/p>\n<p>Ed.
