User Reviews for tea tree oil

Tee tree oil turned my toenail white! I tried buffering it out but it deep in the nail bed Don’t use on any nails

Used tea tree oil for hair loss? Pretty ok - haven't tried it lately but may again. Found a hair folical energizer spray at the Vitamin Shoppe! Works great! Also used tea tree oil on nail fungus/ itchy athletes foot. Seemed to ease the redness. Started kerasal? Fantastic stuff! Clearing up the dark discoloration of toe nails. It was also a one sided foot issue. Had stepped in a puddle with my right foot. Puddle was apparently full of Canadian goose poop! ?? Really, really bad foot infection from it. Had to see nurse and get cream. Itching cleared but nails didn't! For years didn't know what to do. Embarrassing at the nail and foot spa. Stopped going. Kerasal Works wonders! Be careful when you're using it for the first week. Nails will over 'soften " - stop use for 2 weeks? Then start again! I went from almost a black discolored nail and serious thickness? To almost 90% normal now! Getting another tube! Definitely takes a few months , but very happy with the results! Read More Read Less

My use is NOT for dermititis, but this use is listed. I use it for any small breaks in my skin - cuts, and abrasions, and also bruises. I drip tea tree oil onto a cotton swab and saturate the injured skin. It works for dry split fingers too, but a strong tea tree oil salve will stay on better, especially with a bandage. I've also noticed that if I get a bruise, swabbing it with a tea tree oil saturated swab lessens the pain and makes it heal faster. I've used it in my sinus rinse when I have an infection - just 1 drop in in the 8 oz bottle. This is my go-to wound treatment; I don't own any other.Read More Read Less

I started using it on one of my really old problem piercings because the scar tissue got incredibly inflamed, swollen, and hard and wouldn't go away (I hadn't worn jewelry in it in a really long time. It was just acting up). I tried various other treatment methods, but none of them worked. The first time I used tea tree oil on it, I noticed significant improvement the next morning. I've been using it for a couple months now daily and it hasn't been an issue since. It's gone and has healed very well.Read More Read Less

Tea Tree oil worked very well over my case. Tks

Keep getting serious although using it.

Seems ti limit spread of the fungus; and reduces the area infected.

Diagnosed with Sjogrens in 2011; first treated for blepharitis due to dry eyes in 2016 with Restasis (2 yrs); have been using Ocusoft/Retaine OTC products since then. I found that adding tea tree wipes and eye sprays helps more than merely using Ocusoft wipes.

Last night I was searching through social media and read that if u put tea tree oil on ur pimples they will just disappear instantly now unfortunately that is not the case. I had grabbed a q-tip and dipped it into my little jar of tea tree oil and applied it onto a little circle bandage then put it directly onto my pimple, after about five mins it was burning and stinging, not pleasantð??¬but after a little bit it calmed down and I went to bed I woke up in the morning expecting my face to be clear but I took the bandades off only to show bright red circles all over my four head and cheeks. I washed my face with cold water hoping to calm down my skin, it is now around 4:30pm and nothing has really happened yet. I really hope the redness fades soon because the first day of school is in two days and Iâ??m kinda freaking out.... what did I do wrong?Read More Read Less

I have used tea tree oil, 100% pure, for years. I originally got it to dab on pimples and it seemed to help. I did not put it all over my face. Just on the blimish. I have since used.it by adding it to my children's shampoo and conditioner as a lice repellant. Elementary school!, parents, y'all know the deal with out breaks a few times a year. I'm not sure how effective.it was, but my children never caught it. My husband and I have used it to treat sinus infections. The sysmptons seemed to clear up much faster. We would boil water and add a few drops. Cover your head and pot with a towel and breath it in. Not to much because it can be really strong to breath in. Right now I am using it to treat ring worm. I have been soaking a q tip and applying 100% to the infected spots. Been doing this for about two weeks now and it seem to be almost cleared up. I will continue until I'm sure it's gone. But I love this stuff. Read More Read Less

I have pleurisy that stems from systemic mycosis (a systemic fungal infection). Sometimes when the pleurisy gets really bad (b/c my antifungal regimen will be too weak), I'll grab a q-tip, soak it in tea tree, and insert into my nostrils. Within seconds the burning pain will be gone. It's unreal. For example, I've had horrible pleurisy pains for the past few days. I took my regular antifungals, peppermint (which sometimes helps; also helps asthma), and even aspirin! Nothing helped! So finally, I tried this method because it feels like I'm breathing fire and I was desperate. I know you're not supposed to have skin contact but it truly helps the pain. It's the only thing that did help! Read More Read Less

Wart removal on face, causing redness

Had athletes foot since I was in junior high school. Tried everything under the sun from doctor prescribed remedies to over the counter creams, sprays, and ointments. Some helped with temporary relieve anywhere from an hour to a couple days, but "nothing" ever relieved totally or stopped it! "Nothing"! Got worse over the years with times the itching was SO bad I would literally rub/scratch the bottoms of my feet bloody and raw. At times my feet would literally burn like they were on fire. When in the military it got worse due to constant marching, laced up boots, and not always being able to clean/wash them properly. Sometimes for days at a time. And stinky feet!?! I could clear a gymnasium in minutes! I would "never" take my shoes or boots off in public or someones home. If that was a requirement, I simply made an excuse and didn't go in! Embarrassing doesn't even "begin" to describe things. One night while staying at my mothers house the itching & burning was soooo bad, to the point of tears, I rubbed my feet bloody and couldn't sleep. She had a bottle that only said Tea Tree Oil for Skin Relief on the label (mixed with some lotion, have no idea what). I don't know the name of it or the percentage of TTO, but I was desperate to try anything at that point. I saturated both feet from my ankles down and put fresh cotton socks on because my feet were a bit oily afterwards. Didn't want to stain the sheets or cover. The itching stopped within minutes and I finally got a good nights sleep! Next morning I took the socks off and was "shocked" they were full of dead moist skin! I pealed more skin off in sheets, including thick crusty heel skin! My feet were a bit tender for a couple days, BUT THE FRICKIN' FUNGUS WAS GONE, DEAD!!! First itch, burn, pain free experience in over 40 years!!! I'd forgotten what it was like to walk pain free and not think about my feet all day. And no more stinky feet! Finally Cured! Soft skin too! Thank God for a miracle called Tea Tree Oil.Read More Read Less

After using for about two weeks (applied topically on toenails) my toenails becauedry and turned white. The fungus itself may be a little better but the looks of my nails is awful.

I used tea tree oil as an external application to treat toenail fungus. It worked very well. Mine was a very advanced case, allowed to worsen over years of neglect, so it took a little longer to cure, but it did!

Toe nail fungus for ten years. Tried using commercial products specifically marketed for fungus. Did not work. Tried Tea Tree Oil ... noticed change within two weeks. By 2 mos. fungus almost gone. Nails healthy and healing. Daily treatment at least once per day.

I mixed 5 drops tea tree oil and 2 drops lavender oil with organic coconut oil soaked up in tampon and in serted leaving for 4 hours. Did this 4 times in 3 days and aplied to vulva and all areas of itch and burning. All symptoms subsided.

Bad, bad reaction on nose. Peeling and weeping for four days now. Weeping is going away, but nose very read. Have used it b/4, but think I put it on too heavy.

Tea tree oil definitely works on cold sores (mouth) and other types of herpes sores as well. Apply directly 2-3 times daily and they disappear MUCH faster than not using it.

From a face with an acne problem, especially chin and nose area. I had tried every acne treatment. I was told about Tea Tree Oil. I put a small amount of Tea Tree Oil onto a cotton and applied it to my face daily. I was amazed at the difference almost the next day! Within a week my acne was gone! I love this stuff!
