I use CVS 100% Tea Tree Oil and it isn't listed on here, but I'm sure it's the same thing as this. I have dealt with extremely oily and acne prone skin my whole life and I'm 19 years old....

Stuff is B A N A N A S. I'm always suspicious when it comes to organic treatment, expecially if they shout in your face "WE'RE ORGANIC AND YOU'RE A CORPORALIST BRO". 80% it's all lies lies lies....

Tea tree oil is the only thing that cleared up a nasty breakout along my jaw line. I tried everything for months. This cleared it up overnight!

It is too drying and the scent is too strong, yuck. I never saw any benefit of this trea tea oil. It just dries out skin, that's all. There are better treatments for any breakouts.
