Thursday Plantation Tea Tree Face Wash for Acne

Now I am very prone to break outs, not just on my face but all over my chest which has always been a huge problem for me. So being picked to trial this product had me really excited, as I asked myself- would I kick those acne blues that I am all to familiar with to the curb? But after using this product I came to the conclusion of - Unfortunately, no I wouldnt be. It has been a month and a bit of using this product religiously every day and while yes my skin has improved overall a wee bit, that improvement is still very small. My acne has stayed the same, with my chest being a regular pizza party on the daily.

The design is great, I chucked in my shower it was easy to use with the pump styled top which supplied me with enough product for my daily face wash.

Of course the product on its own was not enough to rid my face of all bacteria(i.e makeup) But it did its job and my face wasnt left feeling tight or dried out afterwards which can always be problem when it comes to face washes.

So overall, I think if your skin isnt to problematic then yes this product could help you with the odd blemish here and there - and other than that it also is a pretty good face wash. I was just looking for something super strong and super effective.

This facial cleanser was found to be an average product. It prevented acne from getting worse but didn't seem to clear up any pre-existing acne. The smell was nice but the cleanser is very mellow and not aggressive enough to target problematic acne. It doesn't dry out to skin (which could be why acne didn't clear up) but it didn't increase oil levels either. After using it, the face feels refreshed and not too dry, so minimal moisturiser is needed to restore skin to normal which is good for those with oily skin. This would be a good facial cleanser for those with little acne spots, but probably not as helpful for breakouts.

So hearing great reviews about the product I decided to give a try , I thought it was quite expensive for the amount supplied which was abit of a downfall, didnt really get results for about 3 weeks so decided to pass on the product, it didnt really suit my skin type as it did kind of irritate it.

The Thursday Plantation Tea Tree Face Wash is a pretty good cleanser which did the job, but I didn't really find it rave-worthy. I love how it's affordable and natural, from a brand which doesn't test on animals and in super convenient, easy-to-use packaging. It comes out like a foam which smells like your typical tea tree product does, and is super easy to apply to the skin. My skin never feels dry afterwards, and always feels quite clean and fresh. At the same time though, this product doesn't really DO anything for me. I haven't noticed any significant improvements in my skin while using it, short term or long term. My skin is still in the exact same condition as when I started using it, despite this product's claims to be "for acne". Overall, I'll keep using it until it's used up, but I'm not super impressed and probably won't repurchase.

I'm not normally one for tea tree but my partner bought this and uses it daily so I thought I would give it a whirl myself. I like the smell and I like the clean fresh feeling I feel after using it but it hasnt helped me for any acne issues i've still had breakouts while using it. I still use it daily in the shower though its there so why not :)

I purchased this Tea Tree face wash alongside the face wipes and medicated gel as I was getting some awful breakouts around my chin/forehead area. The range is very recognisable and easy to spot on shelves, its quite affordable and is sold at most supermarkets/pharmacies. I figured using the same branded range of products, would be most affective in treating my acne. I enjoy the wipes and gel, but found this to be somewhat okay, not good not bad - just average. It cleans the skin well, but dries quickly on the skin and soaks into your hands or the applicator within seconds, so it feels like none actually goes onto my face, it makes my face feel dry and sticky simultaneously and feels warm on, it doesn't sting and I have very sensitive skin so thats a bonus. Scent - wise its okay, I don't love tea tree but if it works, it works. I think you can skip this and use the gel/toner or wipes individually and get the same results. Wouldn't purchase again personally.

I wanted so bad for this cleanser to work for me because it has tea tree oil. I've used a whole bottle and it doesn't seem to make any difference on my acne-prone skin. My pores don't seem any different and my skin doesn't less red. It kind of stings a bit when I used it and leaves a strong smell afterwards. It might be because of my sensitive skin or maybe its my oiliness? Either way it doesn't work and I won't be repurchasing it again.

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.

Tea tree oil is supposed to work wonders on the face. I used this cleanser for a good month. And not seeing dramatic results I suddenly stopped. Finding the bottle several months later, I decided to test it out again. It took three weeks for my face to finally reduce redness and shrink the size of blemishes and acne scars and for the next three weeks after that I had gained faith in the product. However, being a natural cleanser, my oily skin got to used to it and it basically stopped working, neither managing breakouts nor helping remove current zits. On top of that, the cleanser was extremely drying, even to my oily skin and without using a moisturizer, my face would peel and look unhealthy.

Despite the great natural ingredients, this product was not designed for long-term use and isn't one of the best cleansers out there.
