Hey I really have a few urgent questions:)
does tea tree oil help to clear pimples?
How long does it take to clear them up?
What is the most effective way to use it?
and how often do you need to use it?
Thank you

You should drink plenty of water, dear.and it depends on your skin that tea tree oil works 4 you. I have not used tea tree oil for pimples.

If you have sensitive skin I wouldn't recommend tea tree as it can be very drying on some skin types.

Like appi said. You need to drink loads of water and take care of your skin by having a good wash routine and eating healthy. I've only used tea tree oil once but my skin reacted to it so I really can't help you sorry.

You should also avoid too much make up.. :) and do not touch your pimples. wash your face wash which contains salicylic
 acid...

15 % tea tree oil can be used as a spot treatment on pimples. You dab it onto the pimples directly using a cotton bud, let it dry and do not rinse. I usually keep it on the pimples overnight and the size of the zit is much reduced by the morning, swelling and redness is almost gone. It takes 2 to 3 days to dry up a huge zit and can even reduce smaller ones to not visible by the morning. You can use it as often as you like, 2 to 3 times a day is fine, just make sure that the concentration is not above 20 percent. And yes, do a patch test beforehand to see if you're allergic to it.

Make sure you dilute it or your skin will break out a lot. I used it like 4 years ago but I didn't know I was suppose to dilute it down so I went ahead and used the pure extract, lets just say that my dermatologist was furious with me
