haven't been using it long but it seems to be working
I've only been using this product for 3 days but, so far, it is clearing the breakout I have right now. Prior to this I was using Dr Bronners tea tree oil soap which was working, but I decided I needed a change as it was becoming less effective. It is quite drying but I have very oily skin so I don't mind. I will update after 2 weeks.

Pros:

Smells great compared to other tea tree products. Nice bottle. Used it in the shower and helped with only a little bit of my acne.

Cons:

Dried my skin out. Annoying brand pricing. Pricy for Tea tree products. Doesn't feel or look natural at all

I prefer the natural and pure variation in bar format than this stuff. This product just wasn't for me. Try it if you think It might work for you, but I'm staying away from this.

Pros:

Helps skin stay clear
Clears acne
Cleanses face

Cons:

A little pricy for me

I love this stuff, once I ran out I started breaking out from something I replaced it with though. The closest mall that has the body shop is 45 mins away and can't afford a trip right now. But I will definitely buy it next time I go back. It's the only thing that keeps my face clear for the most part.

Made my Acne worse

I gave this product two stars just because it does have a nice smell and tingle of freshness when applied. I started using this product when I ran out of the product I usually use. I gave this product around a month to gauge how it would work for me. Every week I would get new pimples that were white in the same area. The area around my jaw would NEVER heal. It wasn't until I stoped using this product that my acne started healing. It might work well for some people but It did not for me.

My face has never looked better.
This is the ONLY face wash I have ever used that gave me actual results. I have extremely oily skin with lots of blackheads, red bumps, and hyper pigmentation. After using this wash twice a day (ONLY the wash, nothing else from the tea tree line) for a week, my skin transformed. It foams up just enough to cleanse nicely without stripping any important oils from the skin. The red bumps I've had on my chin for years have faded and the blackheads on my nose are almost gone. The hyper pigmentation on my cheek has faded as well and my skin is sooo smooth and my complexion is getting better every day. PS!! I DID experience a shot "purging" period. Purging is when your face breaks out suddenly after using a new product and its very common for me, so I kept using it. I would recommend this wash to anyone with acne troubles. The bottle lasts a long time because you need less than a dime size amount.

Pros:

Reduce minor pimples
kit works great if you just have light acne/pimples
helps small pimple heal fast

Cons:

Dried skin
Has a bit of a sent
Doesn't clear black heads
Doesn't really fade scars

I just got the kit from body shop about 2 weeks ago for x-mas, I think this works great if you just have light Pimples, but I just started to get huge inflamed bumps and their healing ok I guess, Iam still breaking out from little pimples but it's healing quickly. I do the kit twice a day everyday, the oil smells kinda bad and burns! I'll see if it's still working in a few more weeks, but I feel like I'm getting big bumps on my cheek so it doesn't stop future pimples :/ If you have LIGHT ACNE or small pimples this will proably work great for you.

Cons:

Expensive
Made my face worse
Contains SLS

I began using this right after I developed a skin allergy due to SLS. I stopped using soaps and shampoos with it, but because I thought this was a natural product I still used it. My face broke out, and continued to break out. I had bumps under my skin. They weren't exactly pimples, red, or itchy. It was annoying and it never got better. The light bulb went off, and I checked the ingredients and sure enough, SLS was in it. I stopped using it, and after a few weeks, I looked semi-normal again. I had high hopes for this product, but no luck!

Pros:

Smells nice
Feels good
Last long

Cons:

Didn't work

I wish tea tree oil worked for me as it does for many others. The kit didnt prevent or remove breakouts. My acne worsened alot.

Pros:

Smells good
Feels good

Cons:

Drying
Too soapy

I saw this in an email. I had to try it because everyone says tea tree oil is good for the skin. It ended up feeling like a fancy soap for my hands rather than my face. Nice, but didn't work for me.

i really like this facewash.it has cleared some of my acne but not all of it.the bottle is really big and it last a long time cuz it doesnt take a lot at all.it smells a lot like tea tree oil ,but i like the smell of it so it doesnt bother me but it could bother some people.i have sensitive skin and cetaphil even irritates me but this doesnt. i also got it on sale for 8 bucks.
