I have problem skin (excema - hands, neck,face & psoraisis on my scalp) & I regularly use my solar oil on excema on my hands, and in particuarly my face. It works wonders, & is much kinder than my steroid cream.
Like Geeg say's, a little does go a long way.
Another thing to try though is to cut down on gluten intake - I have been told this clears it up completely!
