Tea Tree Oil?

[choseck]

I just came across someone saying that Tea Tree Oil was good for pimples - that it really worked. I was wondering if anyone has tried the line at The Body Shop and if they liked it or not.

Thanks in advance.

I'm using their Tea-Tree oil face mask and it's really good to purify combination/oily skins. I use it once a week or every two weeks. I already used their face wash and toner and I was quite satisfy by the results.
But I was very disappointed by their nose mask, it's just rubbish!

I love tea tree oil! I have ezcema, and it really helps my hands when they start to flare up.

Yeah, I use the cleanser, exfoliator and their purifying mask...oh and of course tea tree oil.
I love them! I dont use the cleanser that much, I just use it if I break out from products, it helps to calm them down a lot. I like to use the tea tree oil on just my pimples with a cotton bud (qtip?) before I go to bed, and they're usually a lot less red and appear smaller in the morning.
Their exfoliator is my HG and I use it 3X a week. Makes little bumps under my skin disappear!

thanks! I'm just having problems right now with not getting them to 'calm down.' it seems like one night its better, then the next morning not so good. Their skin products are buy 2 get 1 free right now - so maybe I should try a few products.

i've used their scrub from the tea tree oil line and i like it, but i think it may work better if i was using more of the line...
tea tree oil on it's own though (under moisturizer, for example) works effictivately as a natural astringent to keep skin clean/bacteria free. my facialist recommended it to me and i like to add it to my routine when i can...

i just buy straight up organic tea tree oil (CDN 16.00?)... i use it on pimples and cold sores...works like a charm...especially on cold sores! dont use it straight on if you have sensitive skin though, dilute with a carrier oil (jojoba, apricot kernal oil)

These products can be quite drying, thats why I only use the cleanser/exfoliator sometimes, just make sure you have a good moisturiser

Pure tea tree oil is really good on recent/old zit scars. I'm using it on a few I have and it takes the redness out if used regularly. I just spot apply with a q-tip.

Very true it is perfect for pimples. TBS's skincare line the one with tea tree oill IS EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i've used their tea tree oil spot healing gel, it seems to work pretty well, but it kind of burns when you put it on... :/

 

[colormepretty]

i use 100% Tea Tree Oil on spots and it works wonderfully! i LOVE it.

I'm glad that so many of you approve of these products. I have extremely oily skin - I can wash my face and it'll be oily within an hour or two. I wasn't sure if these products were good because before I bought them, I used to just wash my face with soap and my pores were ridiculously large. I never used facial cleansers repeatedly before because I didn't think they worked until I started using the tea tree oil and it significantly reduced the size of my pores. I honestly don't even break out anymore, and that's just from using the cleanser and toner.

 

[dominichulinda]

I use tea tree oil as well ..loves it!

I'm going to have to check this out, I have these really ugly pimples that won't go away [TMI; I've even tried popping them] hopefully this will work.

Anything you guys would recommend specifically?

I use the Body Shop Tea Tree oil directly on my pimples and it really works well. I also have the concealer with Tea Tree Oil from them, and it does double duty as it actually works really well to conceal pimples.

I used 100% tea tree oil too, i find it greats for pimples and redness.

 

[GoldenGurly02]

I've used the Tea Tree Oil from The Body Shop before...which you can also buy at basically any drugstore (for cheaper?)....and like it!

Can anybody recommend an online store where I can buy 100% tree tea oil. I'm trying to find some new skincare products. And I'm looking to find a spot treatment for my acne/zits.
