mattr 0 Share Posted November 4, 2004 So you know a new zit is about to form- you can barely see a red spot and can barely feel a tiny bump on your face. But you know that within 24 hours, that tiny spot in going to erupt into a full-blown zit or whitehead? What do you do when you find that spot? is there anything you can do to prevent it from forming? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

pooratbest 5 Share Posted November 5, 2004 Put a small blob of tea tree oil (pure) on it (u can often find it in shops that do piercings, as it stops them becomming infected). If it still hurts after around 3 hours put another blob on. It will stop approx 80% of spots growing into anythin worth bothering about. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dtooa 0 Share Posted November 5, 2004 yes tea tree oil deffo works. its so good at preventing spots from forming. they die down and jus leave a small red mark (which eventually fades anyway) i use bp the pure TTO.and if u want to make sure you stop any new small pimples forming that u mite not have seen, use 20% TTO in a moisturiser - make ur own - this works in the same way but is less drying. i do this cos i use it on a day to day basis, wen not using bp.

K-La 0 Share Posted November 9, 2004 Tea tree oil sounds good. Where can the pure stuff be purchased? Or is that stuff from The Body Shop equally as good? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
