Read on to know the amazing benefits this essential oil offers.
TREATS ACNE
Tea tree oil has very powerful anti acne properties. Even a 5 percent solution of tea tree oil works better than benzoyl peroxide. Dilute a few drops of tea tree oil with water, and apply on skin once a day with cotton swab. Do not overuse it or it can dry out your skin, stimulating your body to overproduce its own oils, thus making your acne worse.
