Pros:

dries up current zits very quickly, good to add to current toner or cleanser, i myself like the smell, 2 oz. is a good size, available at local drugstore/walmart, cheap, evens out skin tone, lessens scars, over time inflamation of old zits goes down.

Cons:

my dad hates the smell and so i have to keep it away in my room, the glass bottle almost broke because i dropped it since the oil gets on the bottle...making it slippery, makes skin flaky, inflames skin.

i recommend it. probably best at night because it does make your skin dry and it does make it inflamed and you do stink.

Pros:

natural product, does not interfere with immune system, low cost

Cons:

drying, odor

I've used a dilution (up to 15%) in water daily for a few years now and am very happy with it. I would NOT recommend using full strength. Water does not mix well with oil but shaking before use works fine. Have had benzoil peroxide allergies and issues with prolonged antibiotic use before I found this. Still have occasional breakouts but acne is smaller, goes away quicker and is overall dramatically less.

Pros:

cheap, effective immediately, readily available

Cons:

some people hate the smell but it grows on you!

I have used this for years as a spot treatment and nothing works better. I use it straight up, off my finger or a q-tip. after cleansing and before BP.

I bought body wash, foaming facial cleanser, face mask, and night cream from the body shop and I love it. I've recently stopped wearing make-up because all of my scars are fading and my skin is effing great.

Pros:

Clears up blemishes and makes skin feel cool and tingly!
Has effects similar to BenzP, but without the possibility of harmful side effects.

Cons:

Strong smell. I know that some people experience some irritation of it is not diluted or if it is left on skin too long (personally, I don't have this problem)

Clears up almost all blemishes if left on overnight. May have a strong smell but it fades if you don't use too much. Works great if you don't want to use BP. I have sensitive skin but my skin reacts very well with Tea Tree Oil. If it irritates your skin, try mixing it with your moisturizer. It is also good to put on your skin after you shave your legs! It clears up razor burn very quickly.

Pros:

Clears spots and scars w/out drying out skin

Cons:

Strong smell, slight burning.

Being 13, I hate getting spots. After searching a few forums i found that tea tree oil (as well as lavender and olive oil) helps clear acne. Now my face has minimal spots and all my acne scarring has gone.

Pros:

works without making brown spots after pimple darker

Cons:

stinks

I mix this with noxzema in my hand in the shower. I also use 30% glycolic peel every 1-2 weeks for about 5-10 min (my skin is not sensitive at all) Green tea also works. I drink it and either apply the bag to my skin or break open a green tea tablet, mix it with water and rub that on overnight (this worked best!) I've been doing this for about a week almost all my redness and inflamation is gone and no new bumps have popped out :-). I think the peel has a lot to do with it though. I used it a few months ago and my skin cleared up then I ran out and bought some TCA which obviously didn't work. I read Glycolic is one of the only ones that can get in your pores. Wish I knew that b4! If it aint broke dont fix it...
