I've been using the camellia oil with the entire AlphaDerm line and my skin is looking great, although sometimes a bit dry.

I decided to read the label Rolling Eyes on the oil and it says to use 3-4 drops twice a day. Well, I've been using two squirts twice a day! Yikes!

So how do you get a few drops out of a squirting bottle, huh? And should I be using less oil although my skin looks good?

I use the Camellia Oil with AlphaDerma also. I use as much or little as I want. If you skin is looking good stick to what you are doing. Very Happy

I agree, if you like how your skin looks, keep on doing what works.

Most bottles always say "pea" sized amounts or refer to drops. I usually mix a few things at once (Today for example, its a squirt of Squalane, Skinbio Copper Peptide Serum, Body Shop Kinetin lotion and Topix Replenix) and cover my face, neck and bust.

Course I 've always felt that saving product now by just using small amounts on the face = more money later when you try to undo the damage on the neck and chest. Use liberally IMO! Huzzah! Very Happy

I only use 2 squirts/drops of Camellia oil. I don't think it will hurt to use more/less up to the individual. Wink

I guess my question really is this: Does one squirt of the Silkia Cam. Oil equal one drop? It seems that a full squirt (can't really do a 1/2 squirt with that bottle) should be more than one drop. That's where my confusion comes from. But then, I get confused easily! Very Happy

It sounds like you're actually missing some moisture for the skin. How about using a drop of sodium hyaulronate to the camelia oil. I think that would work for your dryness.
