Why I Love Tea Tree Oil

I mentioned tea tree oil in my Sunday Skincare Routine, as a treatment for acne. Thanks to stress and hormones, my 'face demons' have been out of control the last couple of months. 

poll time: has anyone else tried tea tree oil for spots? maybe it's just a placebo, but i feel like my skin improved drastically once i started putting this stuff on any spots, especially hormonal acne. not to mention it smells like heaven. 

if you couldn't tell, i'm getting more and more into oils lately. i use rosehip oil instead of moisturizer in the morning, argan oil instead of hair product, now tea tree oil instead of proactiv or other benzoyl peroxide spot treatments. i just like the idea that i am putting organic things on my face, i guess. hopefully it balances out the processed junk that i insist on eating. 

anyway, i got this tea tree oil on amazon and i'm obsessed. only $14 for 4 oz which is a crazy good deal, and the bottle is such a pretty blue color. my vanity is getting super pretty and colorful. ‪

What are some of your home remedies for acne? Have you tried tea tree oil? And this is cool - I used this on some whooping mosquito bites I got a couple of days ago and it took the itch out nearly completely. Can I get a hallelujah for natural remedies!
