Okay before I start sounding like some cheap pushy sales girl, let me tell you something more. Apart from all the uses I mentioned above, there are a few more uses of this oil I have discovered:
- I use it as one of the main ingredients in my home made Green Tea Toner (click the link for the steps).
- Add a drop of it in the face masks you prepare at home to get some relief from the acne and scars.
- If you have sensitive teeth, doctors suggest using tea tree oil to massage your gums with. You can dab a drop of it on your palm and then massage your teeth. Although I suggest you do this after doing a bit of research, I don’t want anybody loosing their teeth…kidding!
- Add a drop of it in the hair oil if you or anybody in your family specially children, are plagued with head lice. The oil suffocates the lice and regular usage ensures it never comes back.
Okay a word of caution before I wrap up:
Tea tree oil is meant to be diluted first before using since its very strong. But this one I guess is already diluted (10ml of pure tea tree oil isn’t as cheap as Rs.350!). So you don’t have to dilute this one but it still is strong. I first got it to apply all over my face (what was I thinking!) to get rid of all the acne and scars and everything, so I would take a drop of it and apply all over my face with a cotton wool EVERY DAMN NIGHT and as a result a week later I got those tiny zits everywhere so I stopped using it like that. Moreover, I have sensitive skin so may be my skin could not bear it. So now I use it a spot treatment for acne or potential-acne. This way it doesn’t harms my skin now.
How I use it: Take a tiny drop on a cotton wool and dab on the area. I prefer to use it at night and sleep on with it. The next morning, hello acne-free skin. Yes only a night it takes.
Oh and this bottle will last you ages. I got mine 2yrs back and there is still 50% of it left since you need a very very very tiny amount per usage. A drop can cover your whole face! Plus it comes with a dropper so it ensures you don’t waste the “miracle oil” inside it.
Price: Rs.349 ($8) I bought mine 2yrs back so it must be around Rs.400 now I guess. You can wait for the offers but this oil seldom goes on discount.
They have some 4-5 more products in this range like a face wash, corrective concealer, blemish solver, toner, etc but all of them are pretty useless.
So is it for you? Yes I whole heartily recommend this to every girl and even guys out there who constantly battle their break outs. This works like magic in those emergency situations where you can’t afford to walk out of your door with a big fat acne sitting on your face. If you have sensitive skin like mine, worry not and just use it the way I mentioned and it will never irritate your skin.
Treat this oil like your best friend and it will be one!
