I've been told that works and i've started using it. Has anyone else had any luck with it?

ive been using tea tree oil for probably two years for acne and i have no acne. its worked miracles for me. also, i dont have to worry if i stop using it for a week or so because it works so fast that if i get a pimple its gone within two days. unlike proactive, this is a natural oil that will not clog your pores and will let your pores breathe. i would suggest only to use it at night because it can smell a little and when you sleep, you are not touching your face as much as you do during the day.

Right now my skin is perfectly clear, for the first time in 3 years. It's been about 9 weeks and all my acne is gone. It is such a great feeling to wake up with clear skin.

tea tree oil has antiinflammatory properties, and can help with the larger red bumps. if you have plugged pores, whiteheads, blackheads, you'll need something like benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, or a prescription with a retinoid ingredient. also, if you still have alot of red bumps, an antibiotic, either in a creme, or orally, may be needed, see a dermatologist if so. I take care of this problem in my job many times every day.

I have used tea tree oil for my acne. Well, it worked, but not as fast as other acne medicine. On some acnes you can't even tell the difference.The one that I'm using now is pretty good, it contains Salicylic Acid 0.5%.

ive just started using it aswell. I am using the stuff from the body shop as it does not irritate my skin as much as pure tea tree oil.
I am also yet to try the tea tree range from the body shop which has a face wash and stuff too
tea tree oil has worked for me, but more on red lumps that whiteheads..
tell me your results!!

It is effective but it does not produce a fast acne clearing like benzoyl peroxide, so you will have to be patient to see improvements.

Ask your dermotologist to perscribe Ziana- a new acne gel. It works. It dried out all my pimple in weeks. I tried everything under the sun, inlcuding accutane twice.

seriously, try proactiv, it really does work and leaves your skin feeling soft and healthy. I use it and my teenage son uses it too.
