Can I put it straight on a spot?

Many owners dab a drop undiluted on a single blemish. Tea tree oil is potent, so test on a small area first and keep it off broken or sensitive skin.

Do I need to dilute it?

For larger areas or regular use, yes. A few drops in a carrier oil, toner or cleanser lowers the strength and the risk of dryness.

Is it the same as tea tree spot gels?

No. This is pure oil, so you control the strength and the mix. Spot gels are pre-diluted and easier, but weaker and full of other ingredients.

How long does a 20 mL bottle last?

A long time with spot use, since a treatment takes one or two drops. Daily all-over use will empty it faster.

Can I use it with other skincare?

Yes, as a targeted add-on. Space it from strong acids and retinoids, and stop if skin stings or flakes.

Is it safe for sensitive skin?

Patch test first. Tea tree is a known irritant for some people, and undiluted oil is more likely to cause redness.

Our take on the The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil

The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil is a 20 mL bottle of pure tea tree essential oil with a dropper for targeted application. It is used neat on blemishes and oily areas, or diluted into toners, cleansers and homemade spot treatments. Its draw is the single ingredient and the dropper; rivals are mostly pre-mixed tea tree spot gels and toners that are easier to use but weaker and carry added ingredients. Owners value the strength and the small bottle, and warn that it is potent, drying and strong-smelling, so it needs diluting and a patch test.
