M. Jun 30th, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Dries pimples up fast, all natural remedy, reduces scaring and future breakouts. Cons: Smell is strong, makes skin dry out Bottom Line: I have tried almost every product on the market for acne and nothing ever worked for me. I've been using tee tree oil for a few weeks now and I have to say my face looks 50% better then it did when I first started. It brings pimples to a white head which is just pulling all the bad stuff out of your face. After a few weeks I noticed I've hardly had any new pimples form. Just a few little ones. I put it on morning and night after washing my face with a type of cleanser. It tends to dry the skin out though so I put a moisturizer on after the tee tree oil dries. I usually just dab the pimples and scaring areas using a Q-tip or cotton ball. Sometimes I'll rub fresh aloe from the plant on my face after applying the oil, seems to help even out the tone of my skin. I say tee tree oil is definitely worth a try...make sure it's 100* pure. I'll update again in a few weeks. Usage: M. has used this item for a few weeks. Price Paid: 7.00 Acne severity: moderately severe Was this comment helpful? (Yes) (No) (Report as inappropriate)

Gem, Worcs, Enlgand Jun 27th, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: might work for some people... i like the smell. made blackheads even smaller however.. Cons: i used 100% pure tea tree all over. i have small blackheads, pretty much unnoticeable but the oil made my forehead breakout in pimple like spots on first application. Bottom Line: very cheap in the UK, superdrug. please dilute!!! Recommended: Yes Usage: Gem has used this item for a day or two. Price Paid: 3.00 Acne severity: light Was this comment helpful?

K. Jun 25th, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: reduces pustules within a few days Cons: burns, dries out skin Bottom Line: Tea tree oil has helped me reduce the number of pimples, but it's not completely getting rid of it. Plus, I've gotten a boil when I was using tea tree oil. Maybe I need to use it a little longer. Although, I'm not sure if it was worth the $7 for a 1-ounce vial. Recommended: Yes Usage: K. has used this item for about a month. Price Paid: 7.00 Acne severity: light Was this comment helpful? (Yes) (No) (Report as inappropriate)

Ashley, Philadelphia, PA Jun 22nd, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Dries out acne Cons: Causes migraines. Releases estrogen. Causes breast growth in boys. [link removed] Bottom Line: I really liked this stuff until I started getting massive & unmanageable migraines 3 weeks into using it. (I rarely, if EVER, get headaches). Then my breasts started to become very sore, so I thought I should look up the side affects. Lo & behold, studies have shown that Tea Tree Oil releases estrogen into the body. This would explain the hormonal headaches & breast tenderness. I stopped using it yesterday. Hopefully my hormones will adjust themselves quickly! Scary. Do not use. Recommended: No Usage: Ashley has used this item for about a month. Price Paid: 8.00 Acne severity: moderate Was this comment helpful? (Yes) (No) (Report as inappropriate)

emily, USA Jun 22nd, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: inexpensive, clears zits up QUICK, reduces redness Cons: smells funky, kinda burns/tingles Bottom Line: I swear by tea tree oil. I used to be on EVERY type of acne medication OTC and prescription, proactive, etc. This oil is the one product I love. Just use a Q-tip to put the oil on. I like to put it on in the morning before putting my make-up on...and the redness and size of any pimple goes down almost immediately. Clears up pimples in a couple of days. I also use Desert Essence Thoroughly Clean Fash Wash with Tea Tree Oil & Awapuhi twice daily...and once a week I'll wash with the Proactive face scrub. Hope this helps! Recommended: Yes Usage: emily has used this item for about a year. Price Paid: 10.00 Acne severity: moderate Was this comment helpful? (Yes) (No) (Report as inappropriate)

Pros: personal exp: Clears up skin, softens, brightens & beautifies! Wonderful, pleasant bold smell. makes pores disappear! Cons: none! :) Bottom Line: why wouldn't you try it! its simply the sh*t. it works for me so its most likly to work for you. i wouldn't recommend it for people with dry skin. i use it sparingly around and on my problem areas.. but my problem areas are disappearing :) i also use Aveeno Ultra calming moisturizer. its great. if you use this combo wait 10 minutes to apply moisturizer or ull burn your face :S but youll be fine. i use Aveeno tone and brighten face scrub. it works great tea tree oil is great Recommended: Yes Usage: Lydia Sellers has used this item for a few weeks.

Amy, Virginia Jun 16th, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Its affordable and I feel like it is working fast. I wanted to tell others that I have found something new for acne. It is called HIBICLENS; it contains Chlorhexidine used in surgical procedures and as a surgical wash, it kills microbials on the skin Cons: the same as tea tree oil does. You can buy HIBICLENS at CVS, Rite Aid or walgreens in the band aid aisle in a tourqouis bottle for like 10 bucks. I even was my chest and shoulders in it. Bottom Line: Try it, it is worth a try! Acne is caused by the bacteria on the skin so HIBICLENS should kill it. Recommended: Yes Usage: Amy has used this item for a few weeks. Price Paid: 10.00 Acne severity: moderate Was this comment helpful? (Yes) (No) (Report as inappropriate)
