Ohh well maybe that's what I did wrong. I actually dabbed it on directly.

My skin didn't react at all to tea tree. You may be like me and it helps just stop your acne from getting any worse but, doesn't get rid of it. I pair it up with benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid.

Tea tree oil hasn't been working for me that well either. I'm kind of bummed actually :( I would recommend something with benzoyl peroxide! That's what generally works on my acne.

Man what a bummer :( I've used proactiv & it didn't clear me up so I figured this would work. ughh :|

I love it. It made my acne go away. My face cleared up well. It took me about 2 weeks for my face to clear up. I get a q-tip and apply on blemishes and the eczema I have on my cheeks. It even took my eczema away.:) just give it more time.

Tea tree oil actually made my face worse! I think it was too harsh on my skin! Now I just use sodocream! Seems to be working

In all the times I've used it, it dried my blemishes right up overnight. I don't have terribly sensitive skin, though, so I can get away with applying it like a toner and it doesn't make my skin too dry. I suggest using it as a spot treatment if you're not sure how it reacts with your skin. Apply it consecutive nights and it should be clear within a week.

Every skin is different but I used it when I had acne coiple of years back. It started working after couple of days but for me it only worked for about 3 weeks then I broke out again.

Tea tree foam face wash use to dry my skin up too much so I've switched cleansers to a lush one...but if one of those nasty bigger pimples ever do show up and I want a good quick fix..I start applying pure tea tree oil and by the next day the pimple's gone down in size or sometimes its gone fully.

They say the skin cycle is 28 days so wait till then to see a difference when trying new skincare regimes or diet etc.as skin renews after 28 days.
