Tea Tree Oil

Well, I don't know if these Tea Tree Oils are all different from the other but I didn't by this specific brand. I bought the 2 kinds they sold at Walgreens: Nature & Bounty Tea Tree Oil: this is the one with the very very pungent. Sometimes I think the smell is unique, but it's just really odd. Hollwood Beauty Tea Tree Oil: on the label, it states this specific Tea Tree oil as being for the Scalp but I used it on my skin because the lady there told me a number of other people had done so and reported good things. Its very runny on the skin and tends to leak downward no matter how well you rub it in. This tends to cause a stinging sensation to the eyes if it's placed anywhere on the lower to mid half of your forehead. If placed underneath your nose, it runs into your mouth. Maybe that's why they designed this one for the scalp as the above Tea Tree Oil does not have this runniness problem. My trick was putting it on before bedtime so my eyes would be closed because I had a bump on the lower half of my forehead. I am a light-skinned African American male 24 years of age. I do not have bad acne but I get a couple bumps every now and then that leave blemishes that seem to last forever so it is important for me to tackle those bumps and keep them from turning into blemishes. Both Tea Tree Oil products have done that. Both Tea Tree oil products shrunk my developing bumps after only a few days and left no blemish marks on my skin. Just shrunk them until they disappeared. It's important to note that that I have been using Hollywood & Beauty Tea Tree Oil for well over a month now and I only used Nature & Bounty Tea Tree Oil today; however, that being said it seems one of my bumps and some redness is already going down within just a day of using it. The stuff is phenomenal and I wish I had it as a teenager.

It works for me...but it doesn't. It helps clear up existing pimples, but it's so oily that it has caused more.

this stuff is great. it's "oil" but it does wonders for drying out pimples. you only need a little bit, but if you keep applying "a little bit" for several days or more than once a day, your skin will probably peel. but i especially love this stuff because you can wear it under your makeup. if i wake up with a pimple and i don't want it to get any bigger, i dab a bit of this stuff on, let it dry for a minute or two, and apply my makeup. it's really great.

Since I started my college years, I now get pimples, all over my cheeks and forehead, and it does affect my self esteem and my social life so that is why I decided to consult from a dermatologist. I went to the dermatologist to ask if what can I use to get rid of my pimples, and she recommended her soap which contains tea tree oil, at the 1st day, I saw that my pimples are starting to subside, after 3 days, my pimples on my both cheeks are gone and in the 5th day, my pimples on my forehead are now starting to lessen and I do not get new pimple since I started using this tea tree soap. Now, Im happy that my face is clearer yet, the pimple marks are still there but in time, everything will back to normal.

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.

I use 4-5 drops of 100% tea tree oil in a pump spray bottle mixed with 50ml of distilled (sterile) water, and wash my face with an organic tea tree oil soap, and spray that on afterwards. To close the pores i use Avene water spray (also sterile). This works really well, it feels light and smells, in my opinion, really good. Avene spray is amazing, it dries spots out and cools your face down without the need for you to touch the infected areas. Overall i think it is great. I also drink hot water and lemon twice a day before i eat or drink anything. After an age, trying every different skin care regime ( clinique, clearasil, olive oil, acne.org, dermalogica), this seems to really work. You MUST try this.

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!

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!

great product. i bought the whole skincare regime from the body shop and i love it. definitely worth a shot.

I had my doubts, but this stuff has really worked for me. If you get 100% tea tree oil, which I recommend, be sure to get a damp tissue and then apply. Do NOT apply full strength directly to your face, it will burn, trust me. But my mild scars are starting to fade, and my acne is definitely clearing up!
