Oil Cleansing

I read this blog post today about "oil cleansing" and am excited to try out this new routine at night:

Her instructions for the routine are:

1. Let your faucet run, so the water gets pretty hot.
2. Gently rub a quarter size amount on your face for about a minute. Make sure to massage it in and not scrub it.
3. Run a washcloth under the faucet. (You want the water to be hot enough, but not too hot where you’ll burn yourself. I usually get it really hot and slowly test it on my face. If it’s to hot I just air it out for a second. This part is important, because it has to be hot enough to cause a steaming effect that helps to remove the dirt form your pores.) Leave the washcloth over your face until it’s cooled down, about a minute.
4. Wash your hands
5. Gently wipe off the oil using the washcloth.
6. Your skin will probably look nice an supple and will probably be a little red from the steam.

Go read her blog post for her experience, this oil cleansing helped her acne clear up.  I don't have a real problem with that, but I do have lots of dark spots and a slight pregnancy mask still that I'm hoping it will help with, and I think it will also help with my dry skin and wrinkles. Another skin issue I'm looking for help with is dry scalp - I've heard it just comes with the territory here in Utah, but I'd like to challenge that idea.  Any recommendations?
