Spot Treat With Tea Tree Oil
Tea tree oil is a natural antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, which means that it might kill acnes, the bacteria that causes acne, and also reduce the swelling and redness of pimples.
The researchers found that tea tree oil products can reduce the number of acne sores in people with mild to moderate acne.
Usage of tea tree oil:
- Mix 1 part tea tree oil with 9 parts water.
- Dip a cotton swab into the mixture and apply it to the affected areas.
- Apply moisturizer if desired.
- Repeat this process 1–2 times per day, as needed.
Tea tree oil is an essential oil that is extracted from the leaves of Melaleuca alternifolia, a small tree native to Australia.
