Pros:

Fast results, reduces redness, clears up acne

Cons:

Strong smell, tendency to cause some dryness

It does have a strong smell, but I really like it. I put it on before I go to bed and it seems my face instantly looks better. The redness is gone and my acne clears up within a couple days. It does have a tendency to cause dryness, but I put wild yam cream on top of it so with the two combined I get wonderful results. Plus, tea tree oil is so much healthier than prescription or store bought stuff.

Pros:

Reduces reddness, makes acne less and less noticable.

Cons:

People say the smell, but i like it. Kinda of a Eucalyptis/ something else smell.

Usually when you get out of the shower acne is red and inflammed... if you apply tea tree oil as soon as you get out of the shower (when your pores are wide open) it works best! It BURNS for about 2-3 minutes. If you CANT handle pain or have sensitive skin DONT do this. As soon as my face completley dried, the redness was already gone, and acne alot smaller. Ive only used this product 2 times(12 hours) and can already see a difference. I use the 100% T.T.O and dont dilute it. My skin is not sensitive at all so its okay for me. I hope it continues to work like it has in the 2 applications ive used! Hope this helps!

Pros:

Makes your skin feel smoother, works FAST, affordable, TRY IT!!

Cons:

If you had previously popped pimples it will make them look worse at first...so don't pop them! Other than that..nothing.

Im 15, and this is the ONLY product that has worked. I use the tea tree oil pads which is not just straight tea tree oil because I have sensitve skin.Everything else made my acne worse and I got allergic reactions. I have been using it for about a week and my acne is almost completely gone. I used to be so embarrassed because almost everyone I know has completely flawless skin. School starts in a couple of weeks and my face is almost completely clear, I hope this continues to work so I can show my new beautiful skin off!

Pros:

It makes my post-acne less redder and it worked the first day I applied it on. A week later, it has helped me remove at least 50-70% of my red marks.

Cons:

May be quite expensive but I was able to get a cheap one with a discount.

Great smell, Natural

Pros:

Feels nice on skin (if you dont use too much), works to some extent for me.

Cons:

I don't like how it smells. Use too much, and you will be in pain, and washing it off won't help you.

It's pretty good for making acne go away cuz it's a germocide, and penetrates the skin. I accidentally put way too much on my face, and my face was red for 4 days, it was painful.

Pros:

MY SAVIOR!!

Cons:

NothinG.. I actually LOVE the smell :)

I had similar experiences with the other people here.. Iv'e tried almost everything just to get rid of my acne..1 thing i tried that led to SERIOus breakouts was the PROACTIVE system. It dried out my skin the fisrt 2 days of using it.. I bought the tea tree oil kit from body shop..facial cleanser, toner, moisterizer and tea tree oil.. I was scared of using it at first so i started out with the TTO.. it actually did bring out a difference.. havent seen 1 pimple pop up after my first tym.. i put it on my acne 3 times a day.. No irritation at all.. I lOVE TEA TRE OIL!! :)
