I was really excited about trying this product as tea tree is something that I've heard lots about when it comes to acne, but never been convinced enough to try myself. Unfortunately I was disappointed.
I liked how the pump 'foamed' the product, but was frustrated that one pump of the nozzle didn't seem to provide enough to get decent coverage, two pumps of the nozzle were required.
I found the tea tree scent quite strong and it wasn't a smell I particularly enjoyed.
Those were small niggles that I would have been able to get over if the product had provided results in regards to my complexion. But, I found that the face wash left my skin feeling incredibly tight (this was relieved when following the face wash with Thursday Plantation Tea Tree & Witch Hazel Toner) and my acne is actually worse than it was prior to using this product.
I won't be continuing with Thursday Plantation Tea Tree Face Wash for Acne.
The Tea Tree Face Wash would have to be my favourite product out of the Thursday Plantation range. It is a foaming cleanser, which means its extremely easy to use. The first time I tried this product, I could feel it working. My skin started to tingle (it's not painful though!), and I knew that this was a product that was going to make a difference. After only 2 days of using this product, I was already receiving comments about how much clearer my skin looked! I use this face wash every evening, and I find it removes all of my makeup, leaving my skin feeling clean and fresh. Having tried products formulated especially for acne in the past, I expected this one to leave my skin feeling very dried out. But I was pleasantly surprised - I did not experience any dryness and my skin remained hydrated and soft. I will most definitely be repurchasing this product - I've really struggled to find a face wash that has actually made a noticeable difference to my skin, and now I'm totally converted to this one!
Tips: This cleanser is great because it does remove your makeup as well, but take off your eye makeup first using a gentle eye cleanser. Don't get this near your eyes! The tea tree oil in this product can cause your eyes to sting, and it's not fun!
