Tea Tree Oil Facial Wash Recipe

One of the best acne cleansers you can make at home... and you save money on acne cleansers!





Purify oily, acne-prone skin with this gentle, astringent tea tree oil facial wash recipe. This aromatherapy recipe is one of the best acne cleansers I've found - powerful, but gentle enough for daily use.


This aromatherapy recipe for acne includes witch hazel, lemongrass and petitgrain to reduce oil production, plus aloe vera and vegetable glycerin to repair skin and soften blemishes.


Tea tree essential oil kills breakout-causing bacteria and chamomile reduces redness and soothes skin irritation.
