User Reviews for tea tree oil

Stumbled on this product in pharmacy (while looking for something else). Read the label,decided to try it on acne -- that always gets worse instead of healing, as I tend to scratch. Within a day I saw the effectiveness. Facial Acne started to fade. I then used it on new pimples and instead of turning in to Black sores, the pimples disappeared. I fell in love with this product (face oil) and am now looking for other forms of it (hand lotions, face creams etc). It's amazing!

my son suffered from really bad acne, it was so bad that he had to take an antibiotic for it, but got worsen after a year or within a year that he was taking them. I searched for natural alternative for acne & a lot of positive reviews about tea tree oil. My son started using thursday plantation tea tree oil face wash & moisturizer,the results within a week was amazing, it was like a miracle, I wish I found out about this sooner.

Even after dilution, it still burned beyond use. Had to wash it off her vaginal & anal area.

I've used this for years now to stop the recurrence of Athletes Foot. Which also has the side effect of stopping smelly feet and shoes. 10 drops of tea tree oil to 50grams of aqueous cream. You only need the tiniest amount on the tip of your finger to treat each foot. Just smear lightly between the toes.

I have suffered from rashes that happen every few years when it's humid. this is the first year where I applied tea tree oil to goz and wrapped it over the soars with bandages. I can't stress how unbearable the itching was like until I started treating with tea tree oil. The bacterial skin rash seems to be clearing up quickly.

I've had to deal with random breakouts on my body for years. I apply this morning and night directly with a q-tip and my acne cleared up within a week. It began to reduce it within a day. I added some to my body wash and to my lotion and it left my skin clear and soft. I love this stuff! And it's cheap.

The rash/small pustules formed over forehead and from one cheek finally across bridge of nose. Acne? Who knows at 66 yrs? After trials of every type of cream and wash for infection, acne and inflammation, I began using cleanser with 2% salicylic acid followed by tea tree oil to affected areas twice daily. The combination entirely cleared the rash in 2 days. Had a recurrence after a week when treatmnet was discontinued, so have used regularly since and skin has been clear.

Used in combination with 1000-2000 mg of Free Form L-Lysine works miraculously!

I purchased my oil from Trader Joe's called Spa 100% Pure Jojoba Oil.

I used tea tree oil in aloe base intravaginally for Bacterial Vaginosis. Worked as well as Flagyl, not as quickly.

Helped clear up my face promptly after having the chicken pox and helped reduce blackheads and pimples.

I use it on my genital herpes sores. It has been much more effective then the Zoprex prescribed by the doctor. It may sting slightly, however, it immediately stopped the pressure pain and horrible irritation.

I have added tea tree oil to my facial cleanser -- it has helped my acne and rosacea-- I also use it in my lashline on my eyelids, as I have had ocular rosacea, and my eyelashes were growing crooked, falling out, and I was getting lots of styes-- it has gotten rid of my eye problems, and my face is not all red and inflamed any more-especially my nose.

For jock itch this is very effective but may take several weeks before you have killed all infected sites. There will be a mild cold\hot feeling in the treated skin for an hour after application. After first treating and area the infected skin will die but this is not painful. It worked when all drug store sprays\lotions failed. SIDE EFFECTS: 1st time use skin irritation (so test a smaller area first). Abdominal Pain, Diahrea, Headache, Nausea, Vertigo & Weakness is possible at higher purity and larger coverage. I did experience this after using the 100% pure oil over a large area (inner legs & scrotum). Side effects of toxic levels last hours. Absorbion thought the skin will take hours before you feel it, so there are cautions I recommend. 1. Do not cover any large area with 100% pure oil. 2. Dilute to 5%-15% using oil (not Witch Hazel as it helps absorption. 30% using Witch Hazel on scrotum will result in the toxic side effects!). Drinking Milk will slow absorption. The oils effectiveness is in killing fungi/bacteria on surface and just below. Absorbtion into blood stream will result in nearly same side effects as ingestion (toxic). Will I use the oil still.. yes. I will however do more experimentation in the 5%-15% oil diluted on the scrotum. Scrotal use may also reduce sperm production to near zero due to estrogen in the oils. Not painful but ejaculation may look clear like baby oil. Caution scrotal use if you still want children. Read More Read Less

Felt stitching under arm and noticed a ringworm. First time ever. Started using an anti-fungual but picked up tea tree oil and alternated oil at night and anti-fungal during the day(due to smell) in three days skin is clear. Very happy with results.

Any sign of a cold sore to my mouth, nose or chin, usually due to stress, I apply tea tree oil (any kind) 3 x a day. The smell is tolerable because it's worth it! It has been used for years as a natural antiseptic (spelling?) I've also applied it to other sores such as a scrape, or cut and works great. Fast, pain free and cheaper than medicine to treat it.

good

I read a lot about natural cures for Candidiasis and settled on trying Tea tree Oil. I applied a few drops to a cotton swab and applied the oil directly to the affected area. It burned a little at first, but after a few minutes that burn turned into huge blisters. Now my 'problem' is far worse than when I started. :(
