Tea Tree
Tea tree oil comes from the leaves of the Australian Melaleuca alternifolia. It has a fresh, herbal scent and is used in skincare to keep oily, blemish-prone skin balanced and looking calmer. Pure tea tree oil is strong and can irritate. Never apply it undiluted to your skin; instead, choose products that already contain it in a safe concentration.
Tea tree skincare: face wash, toner and serum
Tea tree face wash and cleansing lotion
Cleansing is an easy way to add tea tree to your routine. The Low Ph Good Morning Gel Cleanser from COSRX contains tea tree oil and has a mild pH, so your skin doesn’t feel tight after washing. For more choice, take a look at our cleansers.
Tea tree toner and serum
After cleansing, you can use a toner with tea tree, such as the AHA BHA PHA 30 Days Miracle Toner from Some By Mi, which combines tea tree with mild acids. The Tea Tree Relief Serum from iUnik is a light serum with a high proportion of tea tree extract, designed for shiny, unsettled skin.
Combining tea tree
Tea tree pairs well with salicylic acid (BHA) if clogged pores are your main concern. If your skin dries out easily, choose a soothing partner such as centella (cica) and finish with a lightweight moisturizer.
