Tree oil benefits for acne
Pimple
and acne is the most annoying thing we face during teenage unless we have dry
skin and they can haunt us till our late
twenties as adult acne.
We try a lot of products for that however,
there is one product that can be also tried for your acne and gives good
results, I am talking about tea tree oil here.
Tea
tree oil is extracted by steaming distillation of the tea tree leaves and is
known for its properties as antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal as well!
You
can get tea tree oil in a mini bottles of 10 mls for brands like soul flower,
aloeveda etc that can cost somewhere around 250 rupees.
Tea
tree oil is also known as a immune system stimulant that makes our immune system
strong to fight against infections.
It
is useful in dandruff, ringworm infections, athlete’s foot etc but here we will
talk about how you can use it for your acne that has been giving you sleepless
nights!
As
it is potential and capable enough to kill bacteria and thereby prevents the
further infections its role in pimple control is widely known.
Tea
tree oil comes under the category of essential oil which are very concentrated
, so it becomes important to use them only after diluting them with some other
oil like Jojoba, olive, hazelnut etc to prevent irritation or with some water.
Or
you can apply it directly but topically only on the pimples alone and not on a
larger skin area.
It
is said to be used twice a day or before going to bed! Always make sure you are
not allergic to this oil or any other stuff that you use on your face. Test it
first before applying on an area near your ear, if irritation happens. Do not
use that product!
It
kills the acne causing bacteria and relief in pimples will be seen within a
couple of days.
