It recommends you to use a cotton bud (Q-tip) but I find that it just soaks up the oil and doesn't give out much. Wash your hands and then using a finger apply it to the spot or acne. The oil dries up the spot and kills the bacteria in it.

I understand tea tree oil is also an antifungal, so it is good on nail fungus, ringworm, and other problems caused by Candida albicans.
