Pee for Acne?

[Little_Lisa]

I remember watching a talk show many, many years ago (can't remember which one) and there was this old lady on it that said using your first mornings pee on your face would clear acne. :icon_eek: I was stunned! I guess don't knock it 'til ya try it, huh? I have tried many things out of desperation but this is not one I care to try. Naasty! Has anyone else ever heard of such a thing or....tried it??

I decided to research it a little and this is what I found...

*LOL*When i saw the headline i thought it was in the jokes forum, but it wasn`t...

i know people say that pee is the purest thing you can get, but NO WAAAAY I will try that!

Let us know if it works Lisa:icon_chee (jk)

I have heard some things using pee for,like when your skin gets itchy/burning from a plant that couses this then pee is the thing to use (dont know how you call this painful plant in English). And i`ve heard that some people drink their own pee, cuz it`s good for lots of things, yak! :icon_twis

 

[lollipop]

Haha like the joke. Btw are you sleeping and computering at the same time :icon_bigg

[bunni]

i've heard for sun rashes, but ewwww. :icon_eek:

My aunt told me once that they used to use pee to cure rashes, so i guess it might work with acne too.

Ahhh the joys of Urea Therapy.

Not for me.

OK, I am going to sick all of you out. I out of desperation about 8 months ago tried it. IT WORKS. I was not open to it at first, I thought ewww, no fricking way. I changed my mind. However, check your cleansers etc. and you would be suprised to find urea or artificial urea in some of them. I dont do this all the time, because there is this psychological thing about putting pee on your face, but every now and then when I can't clear up a blemish I do it. I know, the thought grosses me out too. :icon_roll

 

[greeneyedangel]

I've heard this works, i dont think its gross. Ive never tried it because I don't get much acne but hey i say it if works why not!

 

[dixiewolf]

I have heard of this too, I saw a talk show and someone came on talking about, I am thinking it was on The View. The expert said to use your first urine of the day. So I guess it works, I dont need to try it though. But eww, Jenny, a guys cum? Guys would volunteer to "help clear up your skin" a lot :icon_eek:

 

[Leony]

lol I've never heard of this either.

But I heard about drinking your own urine to cure diabetics.

Also putting a period blood to your face to evenout skin tone.

I've never heard of an adult using their own urine. When my son was an infant, my relatives told me to wipe his/my face with a wet diaper for beautiful skin:icon_eek: . At that time, I was young and thought that it was nasty, now I understand that this is using organic urea(I never could get up the nerve to try it). Ask and elderly person and you'd be surprised at the remedies they've used. My grandmother used to always say "What do you think that we did before doctors?" Afterall, doctors have always promoted synthetic remedies, but are now recognizing organics and act asthougth this is something new. It's all about the money. People have seen the mistakes caused by mans creations. Listening to my elders is the reason I'm earthy and like holistic things. Believe me they work!:clap :clap

 

[greeneyedangel]

I think period blood on your face is where I draw the line-- oh lordy :icon_eek:

 

[lollipop]

Ditto on this one, eeeewww!!!!!!!!!!

 

[speerrituall1]

Come on, menstrual blood is going too far:icon_eek: :icon_eek: :icon_eek: ! Yuk

 

[speerrituall1]

NO, NOOO, NOOOOOOOOOOO! IT MAY BE HOLISTIC BUT YOU'VE GOT TO DRAW THE LINE! BESIDES, I HAVE A WEAK STOMACH.

 

[Little_Lisa]

I'll be sure to check it out. Thanks, Melissa!

You are very correct about urea being in alot of skin care products. I guess I would rather have my own instead of some animals (which is what is normally used) on my face. I don't think you're gross for trying it. I'm glad someone that actually tried it and can say it WORKS admitted to it. I have a question. How do you use it exactly? Do you leave it on like a toner or wash with it and rinse it off afterwards?
