Tea Tree Oil

I used tea tree oil on and off because I found it ineffective. I find it irritating on my skin no better how I dilute it and has not reduced any redness. I do not recommend this for those who have very sensitive skin.

I usto use tea tree oil for mosquito bites to stop the itch and redness. So it only makes sense that it would do the same for my pimples. Its cheap and a very naturale spot treatment ,if your someone that uses toothpaste as a spot treatment u really need to update. It does dry out your pimples and it kills bacteria but pouring it all over your face will not do you any good. Its a caustic solution so for allover application you might want to dilute it. Idk if its a cure to acne because its only makes pimples dat yu have go away idk if it really prevents dem. Keep in mind when pimples surface dey r actually the last stage of the acne that pimples might have been deyr days or weeks before it surfaced. So idt this product cures acne but it helps u maintain it.

Basically, If you have sensitive skin like I do, be careful using tea tree oil, it's VERY drying, and made my face 100x worse. I would recommend it to people who don't have a problem with drying.

Worth a try but don't expect much.

i put a few drops of TOT in my moisturiser and spread it all over my face. it was going well until about 2 weeks later. i had MASSIVE lumps over my forehead which i had never had before and severe acne all over my face. i think it might of clogged my pores up or something. My sis just dabs a bit of tea trea oil on a cotton bud on puts it on individual spots, she has had no problems. i guess we react differently, so i would be careful when purchasing this product.

It does stop the pimple from getting any bigger but it took 2 days for me to see a small difference in the colour, not in size. I would not look to this product if you want a pimple going fast but I would use it as a starting product to stop the formation.

Been using this product for well over 3 months now and by itself i would say it was as successful as id hope, before this i used BP which sadly stopped working for me causing a massive break out :/. Although its common to use one or the other i would recommon using both, applying the tea tree and while still moist apply the BP on top of this. And it worked! HOWEVER!! My acne has not gone completly and doing this really really dries the skin causing it to feel extremly tight AND in the long run causing lines! :O So what you have got to consider is it worth it in the long run. With all the products i've used im sure they havnt done any favours for my skin :/ and im only 18!

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.

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

I didn't know at the time I tried tea tree oil that the study comparing it with BP to treat acne used 5% tea tree gel. Next time I'll try that because even diluted tea tree oil is just too drying for my skin and smells very strong. Probably because I'm not diluting it no where near as low of concentration as 5%.
