Default Tea Tree Oil

Can anyone tell me if Tea Tree Oil is good for blemishes and spots on the face?

I have heard that it is but I am not too sure about it really.

Yes, Tea tree oil is very good. Can even use it for minor infections
instead of neosporin. I have a couple of bottles and sometimes
dab a tiny amount when I cut myself shaving.

Thanks for that Farce. So, is tea tree oil an antiseptic and can it be used of skin rashes and irritations?

Tea tree oil can be used for cuts & grazes, cold sores, acne & blemishes. Other alternative to tea tree essential oil are Marigold, Echinacea or St John's wort (Hypercium) oils.

As a matter of fact, tea tree oil (melaleuca) is used very often to treat blemishes, spots or for cleansing purposes. I have used it during my teenage years and it has always worked very effectively.
