Tea Tree Oil

It smells quite strong, but after a while of use, you get used to it. I don't mind the smell anymore. I find it almost refreshing. It didn't burn for me at all. I've been using it for about 2 weeks now, and I wouldn't call it a miracle oil. It takes time for it to work. The day after I apply it on a new pimple, it becomes white (looks ready to be popped), as if the oil is speeding up the process of the growth of the pimple, but the next day, it's basically gone, or very easy to get rid of. But when my pimple is white, I feel really gross. I would recommend this product. My skin looks a lot better now. It actually seems to be working on my acne scars as well. Time will tell. But because of the number of negative reviews (some people broke out even more), I would say that the use of TTO is at your own risk. I know that people recommend diluting this product, but what I do is, I put the 100% TTO on my pimples as a spot treatment a couple of times at night, maybe during the day. I avoid doing this before I head out because I don't want to smell like TTO.

I tried TTO oil for about 3 weeks and by the end of the 3rd week my face was by far worst than I started. My doctor said stop and use a Dove unscented soap bar and only wash twice a day....my face is actually clearing up. I would not recommend TTO for acne.

It is a good product to use for spot treatment, but in large areas it shouldn't be used. You get some massive side effects.

I always dab tea tree oil onto a spot when one comes up and it makes them disappear much quicker! I also love that I'm putting something natural on my skin!

After using TTO many different ways ( spot treatment, mixing with face wash, lotions, experiencing burns, peeling, etc.) I've finnally found an effective way to use this wonderful stuff! I saw immediate results, and I hope you will too :) You will need: Purpose gentle cleansing wash (loves this stuff);100% Tea Tree Oil; An Aloe Plant or gel (but I perfer the plant). Procedure: -I wash with purpose twice and rinse thoroughly with luke warm water. -lightly pat dry so that skin is still soft and slightly damp. - Pour some TTO in my hands/fingertips and I massage it into my skin avoiding the eye area and corners of mouth. -Massage deeply into skin over bumps and scars for about 1 min..(Tingling is expected, but if it starts to BURN rinse with cool water immediately.) -After massaging in a couple of rounds, let it sit for about 3-5minutes NO LONGER! -Rinse Thoroughly with cool water, and apply aloe. Go to Bed and Wake up with Prettier Skin :) GOD BLess! Great Lu

Helps a lot with my mild acne. Has to be diluted first if it is 100% tea tree oil or it will burn the skin.

I started using tea tree oil around December and i find it works really well as a spot treatment or as a toner of some sort. It may have not been some "miracle product" for me but it definitely works and I've seen improvement in my skin since I've been using this. It gets rid of spots very quickly and it has many benefits '"as it is natural'" which you could easily google. However, you have to be very careful as it is quite a potent product, so I suggest you dilute it by adding water or you could make a toner with witch hazel, green tea, water, etc. The way i use it is i wet a cotton pad with some water and i put a VERY minimal amount of tea tree oil on it '"one drop at the very most'" and rub it all over my face. Sometimes I wet a cotton swab and put, again, a very minimal amount of tea tree oil on it and dab it directly on the spot.

tried for 2 weeks and did not see any result and my skin got irritated

Sadly gave a try with 100% tea tree oil many times as I heard countless of reviews on how good it actually is. I use it to spot treat my cystic acne/blemishes but it always seem to make it worst. I have even tried to apply it directly on them and also diluted it, half TTO and half water but it just didn't seem to work for me. I always try to use it for at least 3 weeks to see how it goes because there might be a "purging" period. But even so, just doesn't work for me. Somehow when I use it, acne starts popping out in areas near the places I spot treat. I stopped it to see if that was the cause and found out my face seemed calmer after.

After reading all of these wonderful reviews about tea tree oil I went out and bought some for myself. It's been a few months and I have not seen any results. i had a huge pimple and applied tto as a spot treatment and nothing happened :/. I will continue using it for six months. Hopefully I will be back with a better review!
