have shown that it has deep effectiveness, is an excellent emulsifier, hypoallergenic,
and non-comedogenic.Emu Oil has many important
properties. It could be combined with various materials to take them more effective,
and studies show this can be done relatively cheaper than the costly liposomes
or iontophorisis now available. Some chiropractors and massage therapists use
the oil for deep muscle massage finding it effective
to get into the muscles and relax them so customers benefit from the massage
for a longer period of time.As an emulsifier, emu oil
is said to be excellent at blending oil and water together and producing a cream
that doesn't feel oily on the skin.Studies at Auburn University
and Texas Tech’s Department of Dermatology and Biochemistry show great
potential for the oil. This potential could be an important factor when being

Professor in the Department of Dermatology and Biochemistry at Texas Tech University's
Health Science Center, and others, have discovered emu oil is hypoallergenic,

irritation level has been shown to be so low its like putting water on the skin.

those at the University of Texas Medical School) revealed that it can be considered
non-comedogenic, meaning it wont clog pores. In the cosmetic industry this is

clog pores thus causing possible pimple outbreak.Researchers have found many
