Thanks for any reply....

very interesting about the mineral water. I've been using just filtered tap water. Would perrier work? that is mineral water. or does it need to be hard core mineral water.

I don't know about perrier, I just couldn't find ANY mineral water except for one brand in a health food store. It actually says on it that you shouldn't drink more then 1 liter of it a day. I just noticed that it seemed to hold more of the rock dust in it. With the other water it would become very clear after sitting over night, but it didn't when I used this water. It had more of a red colering even though I stuck to the clear rocks without the red flecks because the red flecks seem to make it harder to break. I think that I am going to give up on the silica. I may keep taking the 6x stuff because it seemed to be helping my breakouts. But I actually made my skin worse by using that clearisil crap. At least it looks that way right now. Anyways, I don't think that the silica is doing anything for my scars. I read on another post about floric acid(or something like that), which I may look more into, but it seems that is more for newer scars, and Im not positive that ANY of my scars are new.

Well yesterday I made my own silica from some rocks i collected ages ago and I actually got a real sense of,er, achievement ! from making this rock juice myself - and i have to say it WORKS A WHOLE LOT BETTER THAN THE 6X OR 3X THAT I ORDERED FROM THE HOMEO SHOP. I really can't believe the difference. I would recommend to anyone to start making their own BEFORE they go for preparations, cos in my experience the home-made stuff is far superior.
Shaun - maybe it is worth making it all again? How come you couldn't find any mineral water , they sell the stuff everywhere... I used volvic. I think it's important to get the rock ground down as finely as possibly and have it be dry. Kuldeep said it WILL work on older scars, just takes longer. Topically, i recommend a lotion by Higher Nature called "MSM Lotion for Face & Body" which is specifically for damaged skin, or Neem Cream by Bioforce. If you have spare cash, Dermalogica do great creams as well. The thing with clearasil and the like is that they are so harsh - like detergents - the work by stripping the oil and this only serves to make matters worse cos skin then overproduces sebum to compensate. Dermalogica does something called "Skin Renewal" , it's a 'booster' and it's EXCELLENT for sloughing off dead skin cells when you have a breakout or after and helping skin re-generate. I've found that using good products really makes a difference on my face, so it's worth spending the extra - although i dread to think how much we have all spent on our faces !!!
 
carlotta last decade
okay my question is answered about the mineral water. so perrier or volvic will do right?
 
hotty198 last decade
shaun, dont give up so easily. first, how long have you been doing the silica homemade remedy? make sure you do everything just like they tell you. put nothing in your mouth 1/2 hour before or after remedy is taken. It will work. Maybe a year or so for the older scars.
 
hotty198 last decade
I thought that kuldeep said to wait 15 min? This is my problem. If you read this thread from start to finish, you get very conflicting info from kuldeep. Carlotta, what results did you see from the homemade stuff? I mean, you seem as though you have gotten major results over night. how much are you taking and how often? I think that it just works on some people and not on others. I don't know if its just because Im looking harder or what, but Id say that about half of my scars have appeared over the last 6 months, and I am seeing absolutely NOTHING on these scars, the improvements I am seeing are on older, deeper scars. theres a girl on the acne.org site that had indented scars that were 3-4 years old, and the silica 6x GOT RID OF THEM IN 2 WEEKS! Maybe Im doing something wrong!
I don't know why I couldn't find any mineral water, Im in colorado at the moment, you'd think it would be everywhere here, but its not. I may start making it again, its just a pain right now. I have 2 small kids and going threw a messy divorce, so Im bouncing around from place to place at the moment. My sisters family already thinks Im crazy for sitting outside crushing up rocks with a hammer. I may pick back up on it when I get settled, right now Im going to stick with the 6x and do some face peels. does anyone know if the beladonna, or polly berry or whatever it is is essential to this program?

Hi Shaun...Well, you have my understanding and compassion - your skin is the last thing you want to be worrying about when you've got so much on your plate already. I know there's a lot of conflicting stuff going on - and what annoys me is that Kuldeep doesn't seem to be interested now in clarifying the grey areas of this thread (in fact, there are "homeos" here now that seem all too eager to bestow their "expertise" without any sensitivity to, or probing of the enquirer). So we'll just have to help each other out.

So, I started off with the 6c Silicea (shop bought) and this DID have an effect - I was putting the pillules under my tongue...but i found after a couple of months i could see no improvement. Then i posted and Passkey advised me to get the 3x and drop in spring water and shake before taking. This method worked too, but then i came to the same point as i had before and it sort of stopped working. THEN a couple of days ago i made my own with mineral water , and i saw a bigger difference over the first night than the other two produced in a week, and it has made my skin a lot drier.

I'm thinking with you Shaun that there's been something not right with your home-made silica and that if you do it again you'll get the results . Try your best to find Mineral water and crush the rock as fine as you can (who cares what anyone says/thinks - NO ONE is going to understand what you're up to unless they're on this site!!) follow his method again.
I find the most effective dose is the night time one. Take last thing before bed , when you can't taste toothpaste in yr mouth.
Also have you tried glycolic acid peels from a treatment centre? Sometimes they can be really effective when properly done.
And don't bother with the phytolacca berry. I've tried it for AGES and my body is sick of the stuff so i've stopped and it hasn't made a differenece ot pigment really.
 
carlotta last decade
Also hotty, i wouldn't go with the perrier cos of all those bubbles. you want still water for this stuff..
 
carlotta last decade
ok what would you recommend? Is there anything in a supermarket that is mineral water? All that I saw was perrier,pelligrino,and I think dasani from coke might be mineral water?
 
hotty198 last decade
I haven't tried it with anything other than Volvic.
 
carlotta last decade
oh ok. I was looking at volvic in the store and didnt see that it was mineral water. I just looked at website and sure enough...thanks.
 
hotty198 last decade
I have suggested the use of mineral water because it is free from chlorene and other disinfectants. You can harvest rain water or get the water from any natural clean water source.

One guy asked he he can use water from his sump pump, of-course any water can be used as long as it comes from a natural source.

Carlotta,
I have tried a light glycolic peel, but it did nothing. It was very light though. I am going to get the A-Peel from ebay, which I have heard has amazing results. Supposedly its like using retin-A for a year, all in one dose, or something like that. I may also do a jesner(I think thats what its called) a little later in life. Just a bit scared. I am just going to stick with the store bought stuff for the time being because it is improving my acne, and my skin isn't as oily, and the few zits I have heal tons faster. I used neosporine on my super dry face, and my scars are back to normal now. Not worse anymore, so Im happy about that!
 
shaunakeltner last decade
Hi Shaun, do be careful about peel you buy off internet cos recently my sis burnt her face badly with acid peel she bought from eBay. I'd go to a really good clinic, it's worth it for the results. You sound much happier - I'm so glad. I'm cutting back on the rock juice myself. Decided to take a rest from everything for a while. Think there's been an improvement, just want to let everything settle now.
 
carlotta last decade
Im guessing that your sis probably bought TCA. Thats scarry stuff, which works best when used just inside the scar. Im going to get the A-peel, which is a lighter peel. But it is a retynol(I think), vitemen A based peel, which I think I read is the equivilent of using retin-a for a year. I have also heard that retin-a is the only thing that has been proven to repair damaged skin. theres a lot of people getting great results from in on the acne.org site. They also recomend the jessner, which is a bit harsher, about 3 days downtime. But suposedly the A-peel helps to build collegen very quickly, and the jesner helps to break down the scar tissue. I am going to start with the Apeel and see how that goes. I am going to get it sometime next week and Ill let you know how well it works, or if it does anything at all.
 
shaunakeltner last decade
OK. Report back - I'll be interested to hear what the result is. But do be careful and follow the instructions : )))
 
carlotta last decade
F.Y.I.

I have seen 3 cases where people used Retinol-A based creams for clearing up their acne and scars and warts. All these 3 cases were transformed into asthmatics within 2-3 months of using Retinol-A based creams.
Its now upto you to decide.

asthma from retinol A? are you kidding me?
 
hotty198 last decade
The A-peel isn't something you would use everyday. Retin a is very slow. This stuff is supposed to be like using retin-a for a year, in just a couple of peels. And, sorry to say it, but Im a smoker, my lungs are screwed anyways. If you want to look it up its on ebay, just type "APeel Correct Peel" into the search. I wouldn't even think of ordering it, but its getting a huge following on the acne.org message board. Most of those people have tried many many products, so when they rave about something it usually means it really is something good. It is supposed to build cologen really fast, even makes your lips bigger. It comes with this hyaluronic acid compress stuff too, but Im not going to use that, Ive heard it messes up you skin later in life, and only gives you a temperary "plumping" affect. But the people on acne.org are not using that stuff and they are getting amazing results! Im getting excited.

Kuldeep, is there any way that the silica could not be working for me BECAUSE my body needs it? Therefor it uses it instead of pushes it out, or whatever? Because I stopped taking it, and the headaches I got before going on it are coming back, and Im really tired all the time, but when I lay down to go to sleep, I cant sleep. Im also getting stomach aches. Is that a normal reaction when you stop taking it?
