TEA TREE OIL FOR ACNE, DON’T MAKE THESE MISTAKES
Tea Tree Oil can be an awesome spot treatment for speeding up healing of pimples and breakouts, but there’s certain things you need to watch out for, and not do.
Recently I received an email from one of our subscribers, Danielle, asking if she could add it to her moisturizer for a full face treatment for breakouts and acne?
I get asked this a lot because you’d think if Tea Tree Oil is such a good spot treatment, why not just add it to your moisturizer or toner to treat your entire face and prevent pimples from coming back? Easy, right?
HOW NOT TO USE TEA TREE OIL
- Only use it as a spot treatment, never put it all over your face
- Don’t add it to your moisturizer, facial oil, serum, face mask or toner if you’re going to apply it all over your face (diluting or mixing Tea Tree Oil with other skincare products to make a spot treatment is fine)
- After dabbing Tea Tree Oil on a pimple, never cover it with anything like a bandage or plastic
- Don’t use Tea Tree Oil in conjunction with other spot treatments or other acne treatment products containing active ingredients like benzoyl peroxide, retinols or Retin-A, salicylic acid, etc. Best to use one or the other, not both!
- Never use Tea Tree Oil more than once a day – less is more!
- Don’t use it on your skin if your skin is dry, flaking, scaly, or irritated
- If it burns, dries out your skin, or makes your skin red – stop using it
- Don’t ever use Tea Tree Oil right after exercising. Wait until your body and skin has cooled down before using it (I would wait at least an hour after exercising).
- Take a break from using Tea Tree Oil while you’re spending a lot of time out doors in
- the sun (like going on a beach vacation). VISIT : https://www.owlkart.com/tea-tree-essential-oil/
