This is amazing!

Ah acne, you annoying bastard.

There are so many different treatments people swear by to banish those pimples.

From egg whites and avocados, to pills and potions – there’s a new method almost every day.

Well, if you’ve tried and failed to get rid of your acne, you might want to keep reading.

I recently stumbled upon a post on Reddit, where a woman explained how she cleared up her acne in three weeks.

What is this witchcraft?

Basically, the lovely lady claims that rose hip oil transformed her skin.

The user, Foureyedlemon, shared a picture of herself before and after 3 weeks of rosehip oil treatement, and also explained the story.

“I think the picture really shows just how much this routine helped lessen the oil on my face. I’ve always had REALLY oily skin and have had bad acne since 6th grade (I’m 19 now). I’ve never been this clear. Rosehip is such a miracle to me and I was scared it would break me out but luckily I’m on the other side of the fence!”

“I’ve been going to my dermatologist for years and my base routine (without rosehip) was the one I’ve been prescribed since the beginning in middle school, along with trying countless antibiotics that made me various levels of sick.”

“My acne went from severe to mild but never got to where I was happy with it. My derma never revised my routine or recommended new ideas other than antibiotics, and was saying my last option was acutane which is a road I did NOT want to go down. I felt like my skin could be cured with the right products. And I think I’ve found them!”

Now, I’m not saying this will work for everyone.

And yes, I know that people with acne tend to avoid oil like the plague – but hey, it might be worth trying.

Sure, what’s three weeks like?

If you do try this, let me know how you get on!
