tea tree oil is very good for acne IF you buy it pure at an organic store. when you use it run a earpick thru water than dip it in the tea tree dap on twice a day and enjoy:) i dont think lotions and chemical filled products work too well especially if you have senstive skin! God bless

also i switched my HIGH processed sugar diet to a limit of 40g processed sugar n the other sugars from fruits and natural things. my pimples are getting better everyday (and i include LOTS of water)

Haven’t tried that.
Body shop products tend to be a bit chemically.
But Tea tree oil is the best for mixed/oily skin.
The best.

ive never tried tea tree oil but my friend tried the same products from the body shop and they seemed to work for her.

you can also try witch hazel. you can get it at walmart or any store right near the peroxide for really cheap and it works.

also dont forget to drink plenty of water!

Yes it’s true =]

You could also try Rosehip seed oil & lavender oil too!

Alsooo, be sure to drink LOTS of water, this makes a huge difference in how your skin looks

Theoretically, tea tree oil works. I would buy the oil and add it to other products I like, but hopefully what you bought will work That’s a lot of money. For some people, lavender oil, just the plain oil may work or geranium oil. In general, using the plain undiluted oil isn’t great, but to put a dab on a pimple may be the best thing. You have to experiment sometimes to see which of the oils works best for you. If you buy essential oil, always smell it first. If it bothers you, you will likely have a skin reaction to it and will want to avoid it.

I’m really really sorry to say, but the only product I brought from the tea tree oil range from The Body Shop broke me out.

I usually have really clear skin, and after a few days of using their Tea Tree Oil Matte Moisturiser (or something the lines of that) I broke out really bad. I stopped using it and my skin was all better.

But I don’t know. Your skin may be different. I’ve got really sensitive skin, so that may be why it broke me out. Good luck! I hope it works for you
