Tea Tree Oil
Acne & Breakouts
🌿 Tea Tree Oil
Tea tree oil (Melaleuca alternifolia) contains terpinen-4-ol, a potent antimicrobial that kills acne-causing P. acnes bacteria on contact. Clinical studies show 5% tea tree oil gel is as effective as 5% benzoyl peroxide for reducing acne lesions, with fewer side effects like dryness and peeling.
