I first came across emu oil when a DIY ingredient supplier suggested that I mix it with seabuckthorn oil for better skin penetration. Subsequently, Susan of True Beauty passed me a small bottle to dab on my acne because of its anti-inflammatory and healing properties.  It did help to calm my angry inflammed acne to a certain extent but I found the healing slow until I used it in combination with tea tree oil and saw better results, proving that emu coil is indeed an effective trans-dermal carrier for other ingredients.  In addition, I used it a few times on my face and quite like how my skin felt with this oil.  So recently, I decided to purchase a full bottle from Garden of Wisdom through a spree.
