Just thought I would share something that has me totally tickled pink. I am sure there are other links about this product, I just didn't do the research.  I find this product to work like magic on my skin! I have huge pores and am still prone to acne, but by using the tea tree facial scrub my skin looks and feels fantastic!! I hope this helps anybody else who is suffering from acne/large pores. Not sure what else it helps.

I've used it before as well, and it works really well. Tea tree oil has antiseptic & antibacterial properties. You can get it in pure form in health food stores. And, for prevention, I drink acidophilus milk. You can either take the capsules or use milk/yoghurt with acidophilus cultures (the bacteria Lactobacillus acidophilus). It actually prevents breakouts, so I don't have to use the Tea Tree Oil as much any more.  Sunshine IP: Logged |

Thanks spry, I think I'll try it
I've been using Burt's Bees Chamomile and Soap Bark and I really like that one too.....I use a hand lotion with melaleuca alternifolia  since I have psoriasis on my hands -- it's a good balm since the antiseptic in the tea tree oil seems to prevent infection in the skin-splits..... IP: Logged |

Sunshine9~
I used to drink the acidophilus milk, but it's so expensive for just a half gallon! It worked miracles though I had to be sure it did not have Bifidus (spelling?). Zala~
Hi sweet lady! I love Burt's Bees products. One word of caution if you use the tea tree scrub...it doesn't smell very good. So plug your nose or hold your breath!  For what it does for my skin, I'll deal with it.
