Best Acne Treatments

Over 80 years ago the oil from the leaves of the Melaleuca alternifolia was discovered to contain valuable antiseptic and fungicidal properties. An Australian study compared a 5 per cent tea tree oil gel with benzoyl peroxide (a chemical used in some commerical acne preparations) in treating acne. It found that over a 3 month period a tea tree oil gel was an effective alternative to the standard topical acne treatments and produced far less irritation to the skin. Tea Tree Oil remedies are numerous. This post will focus cures for common skin  problems. We will post again with more tea tree oil cures for problems such as hives, shingles, dandruff and many more. You will amazed how many tea tree oil uses there are. These tea tree oil remedies are taken from 101 Ways To Use Tea Tree Oil by Cynthia B. Olson.

Acne – Tea tree oil is one the best acne treatments available. Apply three drops of oil to infected area twice daily. Add oil to  facewash and use moisturizing cream. You can also buy products that contain tea tree oil and are formulated with additional herbs that will control acne.   We really like the Native Remedies product – ClearSkin-A Gel. The main ingredient is tea tree oil but there are also some other helpful acne fighting herbs included in the formulation.

  • Melaleuca alternifolia (Tea Tree Oil) is a traditional remedy of the Aboriginal tribes of Australia. Studies have shown that it has exceptional benefits for the skin. Tea Tree Oil was included in the wound dressing kits of the Australian troops in World War 2. It is one of few essential oils which can be used neat without irritating or drying the skin.
  • Arctium lappa is used naturopathically to support the health of the skin, with wonderful clarifying properties.
  • Aspalathus linearis (Rooibos) is an indigenous shrub, which grows exclusively on the slopes of the Cedarberg Mountains in the Western Cape province of South Africa and has been used by traditional healers of the area for centuries. Now known worldwide for its anti-oxidant properties, the soothing effect of Rooibos on the skin is remarkable.
  • Bulbine frutescence is indigenous to South Africa and is widely used as a home remedy and by traditional healers for the skin. Commonly called Bulbinella, bulbine is effective in supporting skin health and is highly recommended for the natural first aid kit, Its clear and soothing gel forms an invisible ‘seal’ over the skin, providing ongoing skin conditioning and support throughout the day.
  • Zingiber officinalis oil is extracted from ginger root and provides a toning and tightening effect on the skin – supporting healthy pores.
  • Cymbopogon citratus oil is extracted from lemon grass, and this oil is well-known in the east for its wonderful health promoting properties on the skin and its support of a clear complexion.,

  • Hydrocotyle asiatica tr. (Gotu cola) is a plant that grows throughout Africa and Asia and is used both topically and internally to cleanse as well as support circulation. Hamamelis Virginianum tr. (Witch hazel) is a plant whose integral component is in the medicine chest of many Native Americans, and for very good reason! Hamamelis is known for its astringent properties and has an excellent toning effect on the skin.  

    • There is also a companion product called ClearSkin Face Wash which can be used in conjunction with the Native Remedies ClearSkin-A Acne Gel

    Additional uses for tea tree oil for problems in the facial area are:

    After Shave and Waxing – Use a few drops of oil or Tea Tree Oil cream. Redness usually subsides within a day. For men apply oil onto razor blade when shaving to help cut down on nicks.
