Thurday Plantation's Organic100% Tea Tree Oil is THE Best and safest acne treatment EVER!!!

Pros:

Potent, highly effective & natural
Can apply all over face/ many uses, not just acne
Helps heal skin damage/ stop skin cancer

I used Thursday Plantation's Tea Tree Oil all over my face and it cured my acne 100%. Don't use ANY harsh chemical acne products/ washes/ pills or you'll ruin your skin/ health long-term !!! Stick with100% natural remedies. TTO is the best all over topical for acne. I also used 100% lavender oil as a spot treatment only (too drying and harsh to use all over face). NB Use Thursday Plantations 100% Rosehip oil at night (and in the morning) to hydrate, soothe, heal, rebuild, strengthen your skin and make it glow with health (great for scars/ rosacea/ wrinkles/ burns/ aging/ hydraton lines etc too). If you need extra help for moderate/ severe scarring try the short 0.25mm skin needling from [link removed].au with beta glucan liquid from New Directions or do a vigorous facial massage for at least 30 - 60 minutes everyday for 2 weeks (you could try the Wellbox too, I have not used it yet, but it looks quite good). Lastly, only cleanse with sea salt + water or a gentle natural cleanser (like New Directions' Gentle Lotion Cleanser). Eat very healthy & nutrient dense foods i.e. vegan, mostly raw, wholefoods, organic, quinoa, broccoli, dried apricots with sulphur/ sulphites and fresh, chia seeds, sprouted foods, microgreens, wholefoods, superfoods, rice, lebanese bread or seeded bread (but not often to avoid gluten), baked potato/ sweet potato, scoop of chlorella/ spirulina/ barley grass/ wheat grass in fresh juice daily, salads with fresh lemon juice & evoo & salt + pepper, nuts/ seeds/ lentils/ chickpeas, sea vegetables, hummus, red onion, garlic, unhulled tahini, figs, tempeh, dark vegan 85% chocolate, avocado, turmeric, fresh herbs/ thyme/ coriander/ mint/ flat parsley, raw kale, berries, strawberries, beetroot, carrot, pumpkin, spinach leave salad etc. Take a quality potent multivitamin/ mineral daily, 2000- 3000 mcg of B12 weekly, kelp for iodine, flaxseed oil and drink fresh veg/ fruit juices or spring water daily. [Also get a little natural sunlight on your body/ face daily without sunscreen for vitamin D/ sleep in a dark, cool room, and make your bedroom/ home hygienic, dust free and clean]. Furthermore, AVOID, dairy, tap water, fluoride toothpaste (use herbal/ mineral toothpaste), GMO, processed sugar, corn syrup, gluten, pasta, canned foods, foods in BPA & other plastic containers, processed sauces/ processed foods, meats/ fish/ eggs (usually filled with toxins like pesticides/ heavy metal/ gases/ dyes/ diseases/ GMO/ antibiotics/ hormones etc), junk food, chips, fried food, microwave foods, sodas, aspartame, coffee, tea, vinegar etc; research new health information, great places to start is [link removed].au and [link removed] . I also found success with Steiva A (Retin A) .05% for rough skin texture, however, I'm only using rosehip oil now...please only consider Steiva A if you have severely damaged or aged skin as it is potent and can thin/ damage your skin. Do not use if you are young or have only light scarring/ acne. Also, only consider very light glycolic peels if you have severe scarring/ skin damage every 2 weeks for a few months, then stop for a few months - do this for a year ONLY (i.e. start at 10% and maybe work your way to 25% after 6 to 12 months of VERY careful use and rare usage) and ONLY if you have very severe/ all over acne scarring or you could burn your skin and severely damage it badly. However, If you burn your skin, see a professional for treatment immediately and use healing burn scar topicals with beta glucan, like New Directions' Beta Glucan Liquid and Thursday Plantations 100% Rosehip oil. Cheers!

Pros:

Shrinks pimples, natural

Cons:

Leaves red marks, causes scars to redden, dries out skin

I would use this to spot treat and kill bacteria, but definitely not if you plan to go out in public within the next 12-24 hours. I mixed the tea tree oil with 98% organic aloe vera and spot treated, which worked fine. But when I put it all over my face, everything...EVERYTHING was severely red for a while, and it caused quite a few dry spots. This stuff is strong...it works as well as benzol peroxide, don't underestimate it's strength just because it's natural.

Pros:

Clears up acne
Works fairly quickly
Doesn't have as many side effects as chemicals like benzoyl peroxide

Cons:

Strong smell (may be offensive to some people)
Stings for a minute after application

My acne is light, but it is all over my face and is persistent. I also tend to get red marks/scars on my cheeks. After using tea tree oil for only five days, I have already noticed significant improvement. Not only do I have less active pimples, but my red marks and scars are fading as well and my skin tone is more even. I apply tea tree oil in the evening only, after washing my face. I squeeze out a quarter-sized blob of aloe vera gelly, then add three drops of oil and put this mixture all over my face. It does smell very strong but I have gotten used to it. THIS IS THE ONLY THING THAT HAS SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED MY ACNE!!!!

Sometimes the results aren't long term

Im a teenager so I have acne and acne scarring and I have used soo many products, none of it seems to be working so once, I used a bit of tea tree oil that belonged to my brother and wow, I had results the very next day! My pimples were reduced and I was so happy. But some of the results weren't long term which made me not so happy

Pros:

Made my skin less oilier

Cons:

No soaping feeling?

I got my Tea Tree Oil Facial Foam at The Body Shop and it really helped my face to be less oily. I also got this other product which is a tea tree oil formula from The Body Shop. I applied it to my ache before sleeping, the next day, my ache is less red.

Pros:

Lasts a while, as it must be diluted.

Cons:

Incredibly strong smell, expensive, didn't do anything to my acne, made me break out more.

I tried tea tree oil, but it was ineffective. I used it every day for about two weeks, but there was no difference in my acne. In fact, the first day I used the oil, I didn't dilute and it worsened my acne. After that, I diluted it but it still didn't do anything. Moreover, the smell is incredibly strong. Thankfully my roommate kind of liked the smell, but if you're living with someone, the smell is very powerful. All in all, an ineffective and expensive product. Did absolutely nothing to my acne.

Pros:

-Works great on cysts and other mild to sever acne.
-Helps reduce red 'bumps' that are caused by cysts

Cons:

Dries out skin so make sure to moisturize, expensive

I used this to treat my cyst that formed next to my eye and it helped it reduce it and finally make it go away. Word of caution: don't use this product to cover your whole face with it. Instead use it on spots with a Qtip. Also... Do NOT use this on skin where you applied benzil peroxide or anything else that dries out skin. If you do your skin will get extremely red and irritated.
