Why do we get pimples?

Acne is a chronic disease of the pilosebaceous follicle. At the root of the hairs we have all over our bodies, there is a small gland that produces sebum. Sometimes in adulthood, but especially in adolescence, this gland produces too much sebum, causing a buildup in the follicle, which eventually becomes clogged. A "blackhead" then appears. Sometimes, a specific bacteria (Propionibacterium acnes) proliferates in the sebum, resulting in an inflammatory pimple (red, swollen, and painful). Thanks to its UNIQUE sebum-regulating and antibacterial properties, tea tree essential oil is your best ally.

Why use tea tree essential oil for pimples?

Do you have unsightly pimples and don't know how to get rid of them? Are you young with problem, acne-prone, often combination to oily skin? Or are you an adult with thinner, drier skin but still have a few pimples that refuse to go away? Whatever your skin type, tea tree is the most effective essential oil to use topically against pimples.

Use neat, directly on the skin 

Tea tree essential oil can be used neat on the skin on a small area such as a pimple or a bite. Obviously, you shouldn't spread pure essential oil all over your back! But on an infected acne pimple, tea tree essential oil will be most effective when used neat. Place a drop on your finger or a cotton swab and apply it directly to the pimple.
