Note: Not all essential oil brands are the same, and you get what you pay for. If you expect to achieve results similar to those described in this testimonial, then ensure that you are using oils from pesticide-free plants. Also, the brand should use 100% pure, high-quality essential oils that do not contain any synthetic additives. Do your own research or ask a trusted friend to find a brand that is reputable. Buyer beware.
I had a small, round bump near my left eye that wouldn't go away for about 3 years. When I went in for my new glasses, I pointed it out to my eye doctor, who told me to put a q-tip with warm water on it.
She said it was just a clogged pore and it should go away. I tried this, but it didn't work. I tried endlessly to 'pop' it, because it seemed similar to a pimple and I could feel a small, hard bump inside of it, but I could never get it to leave completely.
If I could drain the pus out of the pimple, it would always build back up by the next day and be as prominent as ever. When I got my first oils, the first thing I wanted to do was get rid of this bump! I tried putting Lemon oil on it, and very carefully dabbed it on for three days, using a q-tip so that it wouldn't get in my eye.
On the third day, as I was rubbing the Lemon in, the bump began to ooze white pus. I was able to squeeze an amazing amount of pus out (gross, I know!) And by the next day, the little bump was gone.
It's been 3 months now, and the bump is still completely gone!
