Thursday Plantation Tea Tree Face Wash for Acne

This cleanser is great for sensitive skin! Because it's so foamy it is extremely gentle on your skin, minimising any redness that I would usually have with a stronger product. It also never over dried my skin, even if I used it twice a day (which is quite a miracle considering I went back on accutane, which is acne medication, notorious for drying out your skin). Because of its gentleness it's great to use in the morning as it is really refreshing, and invigorates the skin!! Definitely will be switching to this product :)

I have been using this for maybe 8 weeks now and am finding it may not be completely clearing my acne but darn near close to it ! I haven't had any big sore obvious ones for weeks ! Im still getting the odd small breakout (around my mouth/chin area)but I'm sure its more a hormonal thing now not all over my face like it was. I am using with clean and clear toner and oil free moisturizer also mineral make up and it has made a HUGE improvement. I also do a facial scrub with baking soda every two days and my old acne scarring has faded away ! definitely considering the giving the whole range ago the best I have found so far.

I don't know why but the facial wash for Thursday plantation is so much better than the body wash, it has a good amount of suds a definite tea tree fragrance, if you are not fond of tea tree or strong fragrance you won't enjoy their products. Is not overly drying and definitely puts up a barrier to keep the pimples at bay

I used this foaming face wash a couple of years ago when I had some pimples. It was easy to use and smelled nice but I found it quite drying for my normal/dry skin. I now use cream cleansers and they suit me much better.

I have acne prone skin, so I am always looking for new products to try and combat my terrible skin! When I seen this product I thought it was fantastic as Tea Tree is great for acne - well is supposed to be. I used it daily but after a week of use my skin became super dry and dull. It didn't really help with my acne at all, basically just made my skin dry

this is the face wash i am currently using and it has cleared up my skin so much! my acne has improved so much but i can only use it every second day or else my skin drys out

Out of the 5x Tea Tree products I tested, this was my favourite. The nozzle self-foams the face wash, so it was really light and fluffy when I put it on. It's perfect for oily skin, because it definitely dried / tightened the skin slightly each time I finished washing & drying. Because of the tea tree ingredient, the product left my skin feeling refreshed and clean - exactly as it's supposed to :)

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!

About Me

Let me start off by sharing a bit about my skin. I have very oily and acne prone skin. I've had acne for more than 10 years and have been on every drug, cream and face wash you can imagine. Things tend to work for me for around a month and then the acne returns. I believe my acne is hormonal and before using this product it was moderate in severity.

Results

I've been using this product for 3 weeks so far and I haven't seen any reduction in my acne, in fact, I think it's gotten worse as I now have small spots on my forehead and chin whereas it used to only be on my neck and jawline. I would say my acne is now severe. On the plus side, I have noticed my skin has become softer and as a result my foundation has gone on smoother.

Would I recommend it?

I would probably recommend this product to use as a cleanser for normal/oily skin as it feels quite nice and does do a good job cleaning the skin. Using the cleanser alone, and not with the other products in the 3 part treatment program, I have noticed that my skin is less oily.

Nuts & Bolts

Consistency- This cleanser comes out as a foam but it's quite substantial.

Application- It's easy to apply, just massage onto wet skin.

Coverage-I usually use two pumps for my whole face and neck.

Longevity- Based on how much I've used so far I would estimate this product would last over 2 months.

Packaging- The packaging is good, it doesn't seem to leak when traveling.
