| Pros | WORKS SO WELL |
|---|---|
| Cons | errrr.................. |
| Bottom line | aaaaaaaaaaaah i love love love pure teaa tree oil. I only have very mild acne....(it used to be mild - moderate, but I am on Trimethoprim tablets from my Doctor, and DUAC GEL which is amazing and I swear by it... I dread to think what my skin would be like without it. So at the moment I have oily skin and a couple of zits every few days but thanks to tea tree oil, I have none at the moment! I put it on my cheek area (where I break out most) every night, and it seems to stop zits forming and I haven't (touch wood) had ANYYY zits at all for 2 weeks now! It's amazing. Buy it! Buy it! Buy it! |

| Pros | Has taken the redness and selling down from cystic acne flare-ups. |
|---|---|
| Cons | None. I like the strong scent! |
| Bottom line | I break out from absolutely everything, and freak out when I hear the word "oil" (tea tree oil) for my face! I was desperate and searching for something new and this has been great in only 2 days! I've applied it about 5/day w/great results! I always have some form of acne, buth thankfully cystic acne flareups are rare these days (I'm 40), but VERY common in my 20's and 30's. I've tried accutane, retin A,sulficetimide (sp?), climdimycin, aczone, every OTC med for acne, etc. I never would have believed tea tree oil would make a difference,but it has...I wish I tried this crap sooner :) I had large painful cysts next to my nose and on my smile line AND one on my chin (huge one)...I apllied this stuff for the last couple days and ALL of them are much smaller and the redness is almost gone. It stung at first, but went away fast! |

| Pros | It's not harsh, works quickly, doesn't dry out your skin or make it oily. |
|---|---|
| Cons | None =) |
| Bottom line | I bought this product about 5 days ago & have been applying it 2-3 times a day everyday & oh my gosh... it works so well. I applied it the first night I got it & when I washed my face the next morning my face was far less bumpy & didn't look as oily throughout the day (my face can get really oily so that was awesome). The next day there was hardly any pimples at all & the ones that were there were smaller & less red. I got the tea tree oil gel because I heard that pure tea tree oil can be sort of harsh on your skin but I haven't tried it. When I get pimples they just won't fade but with tea tree oil even the pimples I had for at least a month are decreasing in size literally over night. Benzoyl peroxide felt really harsh on my face & made it red & kind of itchy but this is so mild & works so well. Sure the smell is strong but I don't mind it & I think it's worth it because the results are fantastic. Tea tree oil is awesome. |

| Pros | works fast and great |
|---|---|
| Cons | smell strong but you get used to it |
| Bottom line | I have always had a little acne but now after having my 2nd child I started breaking out ALL OVER my face. cheeks forehead exspecially jaw line.. All I do is rub it on straight out of the bottle all over my face and watch the magic run its coarse! I have had it in my cupboard for awhile and forgot about it. Last night I discovered it and tried the new approach of all over the face instead of just spot treatment like I normally did. This morning all my pimples are smaller and all of the redness is almost all gone!!! * bucks walmart get iT! |

| Pros | smells good because of the minty smell,very effective, soothing, doesnt dry skin(I dont know to others because my face is oily) and it lessens oiliness of the face |
|---|---|
| Cons | the effect is not very fast |
| Bottom line | Since I started my college years, I now get pimples, all over my cheeks and forehead, and it does affect my self esteem and my social life so that is why I decided to consult from a dermatologist. I went to the dermatologist to ask if what can I use to get rid of my pimples, and she recommended her soap which contains tea tree oil, at the 1st day, I saw that my pimples are starting to subside, after 3 days, my pimples on my both cheeks are gone and in the 5th day, my pimples on my forehead are now starting to lessen and I do not get new pimple since I started using this tea tree soap. Now, Im happy that my face is clearer yet, the pimple marks are still there but in time, everything will back to normal. |

| Pros | Works |
|---|---|
| Cons | Little to none |
| Bottom line | be sure your buying pure tea tree oil which comes only from an Australian tree "Melaleuca alternifolia" and can be found at " [link removed] "search for natria.A product that can be bought pre-mixed for use can be found at " [link removed] and search for tea tree oil.The Australian government sets the standard (AS 2782-1985) for tea tree oil quality at a minimum content of 30% terpinen-4-ol, and a maximum content of 15% 1,8-cineol can treat most skin conditions, dry scalp problems and canker sores.It should never be used without diluting and should not smell badly.A bad smell is of lower quality, may be rotten because of improper packaging or is from the Melaleuca family of trees but not the Austrailian alternifolia variety.If you buy it pure you can find mixing reciepes on [link removed] and at the bottom are other links for its use and how to properly mix.Rarity makes it a bit pricier at $10/oz.Mixing will go far. |

| Pros | Absolutely amazing..this stuff is light years ahead of BP, salicylic acid or any other treatment used to spot treat. Tea tree oil diminishes the size and redness of pimples, especially if you catch the pimple right as it is beginning to form. Love it |
|---|---|
| Cons | I guess for some people, the smell might be a huge turn-off, but I really love the smell of it. Also, for it to be really effective, you need to apply it multiple times a day (for me, I'd apply it as much as 10 times a day to a pimple). |
| Bottom line | I have been surfing this site for over four years now, and this is the first review I have ever written. I don't trust other reviews because it seems that people are just praying for treatments to work, so they'll write anything on here (even if the product is really ineffective). However, I must say that I am so thrilled with tea tree oil that I felt compelled to write a review. I have a caramel complexion and I get nasty purple marks and bright red marks (it looks weird on someone with skin like mine) after every little pimple. However, with tea tree oil the marks after a pimple are GREATLY reduced if not there at all. This stuff is amazing. If I would've used this instead of BP/SA over the years then I would probably have very few purple/red marks. Anyway, I use this stuff against all the directions I've seen--that is, I apply it UNDILUTED directly from the bottle without mixing it with water. I can't say enough good things about tea tree oil. Seriously, it's amazing. |

| Pros | clean feeling, inflammation goes down almost immedietely, pores are tighter and smaller |
|---|---|
| Cons | some people say the smell is awful but i actually like it. it's like a menthol/eucalyptus smell. |
| Bottom line | i am 20 years old and i've had acne since i was 10. i have tried everything from proactive to toothpaste, oral and topical prescription medications, egg white masks and head and shoulder shampoo. i've tried all the home remedies and tried all the recommendations made by serveral dermatologists. i am allergic to benzoyl peroxide, so i have a hard time finding skin treatments gentle enough for my face. i wanted to try something natural, so i came across tea tree oil and decided to give it a try. (i'd tried it years ago, the body shop brand, and it didn't work) so i found some in a health food store and decided to give it a second chance.....the first night i put it on, it burned and turned my face red. and then about 10 minutes later, the redness calmed down and almost immedietly my acne looked better. i've been putting it on my face after my nightly shower when my pores are the most open, and i think my skin is improving. that's more than i can say about anything else i've tried! |
