An Insane Acne Solution: Tea Tree Oil

Tea tree oil has some seriously insane, healing superpowers.

Who knew?

Even since I’ve started TSConf, I’ve become obsessed with aromatherapy ( more on that later ), oils ( another post on oil can be found here ), & liquid herbs ( << cannot.wait.to.share.this.post ).

And today I’m sharing one of my favorites: tea tree oil.

The other day I burned myself with a curling iron…ya.

I don’t do well with heated surfaces.

Of any kind ( I’m talking to you, stove ).

Anyway I used tea tree oil to help the burn heal & lemme tell ya, it was a real game changer. Buh-bye burns!

And for anyone who’s struggling with acne, ditch the Proactive & give tea tree oil a chance.

Tea Tree Oil Benefits:

1. } Heals cuts and burns: it’s a natural antiseptic, meaning it can be used to help treat wounds & burns. Tea tree oil has also been known to treat bacterial infections— love it! Use a dime size amount of tea tree oil to heal razor burns, small cuts, & even sunburns ( although, I’m hoping everyone avoids the sun like the plague ). If you want you can add some water to the oil too : ).

2.} Blemish-be-gone!: this oil’s known for getting rid of pimples. Recently a study found that the oil offers similar results to a 5 percent benzoyl peroxide. Next time you’re on Aunt Flow & have a zitty, throw some tea tree oil on it!

3.} Gets rid of nasty athlete’s foot:all-natural tea tree oil is also known to help cure athlete’s food which is an anti-fungal. It relieves symptoms of athlete’s foot, including scaling, inflammation, itching, & burning. To completely get rid of it though, you’ll need a stronger tea tree oil solution ( 25 percent or 50 percent ) will work best.

4.} Nail infections: You can also use it to fight nail infections. It will take time, but just keep applying the oil twice a day for about a month. You’ll be mani/pedi ready in no time!

5.} Yoga mat cleaner: YESSSS. It’s a natural cleaner that is perfect for yogi’s everywhere. Cha-ching!

See? It’s a definite meddie cabinet must-have.

Question: what’s your favorite oil & why?

Happy hump day! xxo.L
