I've recently incorporated Tea Tree oil into my regimin again (rediscovered it in my medicine cabinet), and I've been adding a drop of it into my facial cleanser. So far, I really like the way it feels and I do think it makes my Mild Clinque soap actually DO something for my complexion.

Anyway, I have Desert Essence' Organic Australian Tea Tree Oil, and I find the packaging horrible. It tends to pour out, more than come out in drops. I like the fact that it's organic and Australian (I heard claims that it's better), but I wish I had more control over it!

Any recs? Also, if anyone else has any results (good or bad), I'd love to hear about it...please post!

Thanks!!

I use what you're using and I like it a lot. Not that strong so I don't have to dilute it. I just make sure my hands are washed and cover the top with my finger and turn upside down. That way tons doesn't pour out and it gives just the right amount.

I use Thrusday Plantation products. We have Tea Tree plants all around where i'm living though, theoretically i could just grab the leaves and steam out the oil.

Hi guys,
thanks for your info...achick, why didn't I think of that - you're brilliant! I will try that tonight. Also do you use it as a spot treatment or wash your face with it?

Grow to Overthrow...I've heard good things about Thursday Plantation products, unfortunately, I have yet to see them in my area (SF Bay Area). Will check out online.

Yeah i've heard that before, they mustn't be that easy to get in the U.S. I'm from Australia, they're readily available here. Let me know if you want me to post you something, i'd be willing to do so. smile.gif

Here's the website. Have a look around.
