Tea tree oil is an essential oil can be used as an antiseptic, germicide, antibacterial or fungicide. Because of its drying properties, it can effectively shrink blemishes and prevent you from breaking out.
First, wash and dry your face thoroughly before you go to bed. Then apply a drop or two of 100% therapeutic grade tea tree oil onto a cotton swab. Gently rub the medicated swab over your pimple. Try not to get the oil onto the clear, healthy areas of your skin, because it can quickly dehydrate your skin and make it flaky. Let the oil dry and wash your hands thoroughly.
