The Body Shop: Tea Tree Skin Clearing Facial Wash

I bought this face wash in a kit with the other tea tree line at a t.j.maxx. It came with this face wash, a toner, a moisturizer, and a spot treatment. I had recently suffered from more acne due to stress and hormones, and blackheads and clogged pores due to sweating. I thought I would try tea tree to help gently get rid of my acne and skin problems.

Tea Tree has been known to be an antiseptic and an antimicrobial that helps with skin problems, MRSA, and even scalp issues like dandruff.

After using this my acne spots and other skin problems were dried up, shrunk, and on the way to healing. I use this when my skin needs the tea tree oil to help with skin issues, and I use the whole line including the spot treatment at night. I would really suggest this line if you have tried other acne products and they didn't exactly work well on you. It can be a bit drying, but not as much as benzoyl peroxide or other acne clearing medications.

You can also use this cleanser with a clairisonic for an even deeper clean. It is oil free, and also great to use everyday if needed.

You can purchase this face wash at www.thebodyshop.com, ulta.com, ulta and body shop stores, t.j. maxx, and amazon. It runs about 12.00$ normally for a full size bottle (8.4 fl oz.) but it is 40 percent off (7.20$) right now. check it out!

until next time, Have a great night.

The Body Shop: Tea Tree Skin Clearing toner

The Body shop's Tea Tree Skin Clearing Toner

This is the body shop's tea tree toner, I got this product in a set from t.j. maxx for a discounted price during Christmas time. This toner is meant to remove dead skin and oils from skin after washing, and has tea tree to treat blemishes, white heads, black heads, and cystic acne.

Tea tree is known as an antibacterial oil that is great for skin and scalp conditions. Most people use it to help with acne, in a more natural way, after trying all the drying chemicals out there. It can be used for dry, itchy scalp and dandruff.

There is a downside to this toner sadly, the mixture separates and the oils settle on the bottom of the bottle, creating a "crusty" looking bottom of the bottle. Besides that I really like the toner.

The toner has a slightly tingly feeling when you put it on your skin, and I can image this feeling awesome in the summer. It feels like it is cleaning your skin deeply into the pore, and you will be amazed when you look at the toner on the cotton ball/pad and there is a lot of dirt and oil on there.

if you would like to try the toner, I would suggest oily/acne prone people try it out.

you can get it at ulta.com,ulta stores, t.j.maxx stores,amazon.com,thebodyshop.com, and the body shop stores.
