Worked for me after day one
I have had painful and unsightly hormonal breakouts on my back and shoulders since I was 24 (I just turned 29) and after trying a ton of different products, finally I thought "Hey, I use tea tree oil for everything else, maybe it'll work." So I searched all over the site and found several, but this sounded the best, so I got the body gel and the toner along with Phisoderm for blemished skin that balances your skin's PH levels (important for any troubled skin treatment) and after the first shower (this first on a body brushing tool, then this again on a loofah, then the Phisoderm with a terrycloth very thoroughly and then the toner on my shoulders and back right before my pores closed) I couldn't believe it...although I had to as there was tangible proof. The large, under the skin bumps weren't as inflamed and didn't really hurt, the medium ones were smaller, and the small bumps were in that state where you know it will be gone in a day or two. I love the scent, as it actually smalls like tea tree oil, which to me smells like cleanliness and being pathogen-free lolThis was just my experience, I don't think it would be the same for everyone, I think I just got exactly what my body needed, which was PH balance and anti-bacterial that wasn't harsh and was mostly natural, which is what I prefer anyway.I will never use other domestic products for my face though; I have VERY sensitive skin. Most products contain harsh ingredients like benzoyl peroxide...I'd left my Porefinist Cleansing Oil and Foaming Cleanser in my other bathroom, didn't own this yet, and found an a tube of ********** cleanser so I used that...that stuff burned half of my face HORRIBLY and left it raw and almost bloody red and left the rest painfully sensitive. My entire face was a pulsing centre of suffering because I had started using Shara Shara's Sake and Ceramide Night and Day Routine Set that is effective, mild and very gentle as a toner, lotion, and face cream set. Two or three weeks after I started using it (monthly breakout; the set actually cleared up any tint blemish I had) I had a horrible facial breakout and at that point didn't have the products I do now and I used a very popular brand I won't name's Extra Strength Oil Control Facewash...my sebum production was noticably reduced, as was a chemical burn so horrid I had to use green tea sheet masks and keep aloe serum with Plant-Water gel-cream moisturizer on at all times.P.S- To anyone interested in alternative, non-drugstore brand natural products for facial skin: For facial breakouts which are mild and only for a few days a month like mine, this, I use a spot treatment; generally use a Bee Venom and Propolis with Mucin spot treatment over a fully dried and patted in tea tree and eucalyptus essence, pink clay with tea tree and a few other super effective natural ingredients when that dries, and if I get a really large blemish, I use the pink clay with tea tree oil clay pack and the next day the blemish has shrunk and lost so much redness that it isn't even visible. I use SNP's, it's a miracle worker. Also you can us this toner alone, have a mix of a bit with clay or cornstach and use it as a pack on blemishes and you'll get nearly the same results as far as the swelling going down and the redness subsiding. On smaller bumps it will also get rid of them.
I love this product so much. I’ve been using it for 6 months now and my back acne is an issue of the past. If I stop using for a week I’ll start to get break outs again, but with regular use it is incredible. When I first started my back was really bad so I used it morning and evening for the first week or two and instantly saw results within a few days. I haven’t tried other products because this has been so successful. The scent is fine, nothing special but not unflattering at all.I’ve seen other reviews mention that it doesn’t ‘suds up’ or lather well - which is true if you try to use it with a traditional wash cloth or loofah + you’ll need to use more with these and go through the product quickly. However, using it with a rubber body brush it will lather instantly so you can use only a small amount and it will cover a large area of skin (attached a picture to show what type of product I’m talking about). I got one on the target discount rack once for under $5, and since using the body scrubber with this product an 8oz container will last 3 months even with daily use.Hope this helps!!
To be honest, I don't know if this body wash has tea tree oil in it or not; or if it's even enough to be effective. The addition of Tea Tree Oil is specifically why I bought this product. The scent isn't bad (could be more pronounced) and it lathers nicely. I like that it's vegan and not tested on animals, but I do wish the percentage for ingredients were included. It would be great if the bottle came in a larger size and had a pump. I also question the $8.00 price hike over night. I give it three stars but I think we can do better for the price.
I love this product!! I use it every time I shower, and I can see the difference! I have really sensitive skin, so finding a body wash that doesn't create issues is a challenge, let alone one that actually helps, is nearly impossible. However, this is the product, and it works! I had issues with my chest, back, and arms breaking out, but after using this, I only tend to breakout when my hormones spike. Definitely worth the purchase!!
Smells fresh. Gel/liquid form. I have under arm odor because of stress sweat and anxiety. When I use this it gets rid of the odor. But I have to either scrub my pits with a loufa or washcloth for the best result. It is not what I wanted though. I want this with an exfoliant of some sort so I don't need to use a loufa. Loufas are balls of bacteria. And I get acne easily because my skin is so sensitive. I wanted to use something like this with a natural tough exfoliant but this is just a gel. I haven't found anyone product to use for my problem so the search is still on! Good cleanser though if used with a loufa. :) I gave 5 stars because for what it is its a great product and smells the best. Smells like a dark forest of water and green plants.
Due to psoriasis breakouts I use gentle bath washes with either sea kelp or tea tree oil. This is a very good wash, it is cool to the skin, lathers up nicely and rises off clean leaving skin nice and smooth. Only issue (and not one tat would prevent me for using it in the future) is it is a bit strong on the tea tree oil smell. Once you are rinsed off the smell does not linger but the traetment does. Will continue to use and would recommend.
