Okay, so I’ve been messing around with this lotion and tea tree oil thing for a bit, and I gotta say, it’s been quite a ride. It all started when I was looking for something to deal with my skin. It is always not good. Then, I saw some information online said that I should do something to help balance the pH after cleansing. Sounds cool to me. So I thought, why not give this a try?

First off, I went out and got myself some tea tree oil. Man, that stuff has a strong smell! Anyway, I already had a simple, basic lotion, nothing fancy. I figured that would be a good base to start with.

Mixing it Up

Then came the fun part – mixing. I wasn’t really sure how much tea tree oil to use, so I started with just a couple of drops in a small dollop of lotion in my palm. I used my finger to blend it all together. I tried to make sure the oil was mixed in pretty well.

• First try: Just 2 drops. I applied it to my face with a cotton pad. It felt okay, but I didn’t really notice much difference. I think I was being too cautious.
• Second try: Upped it to 4 drops. Still using a cotton pad. This time, I could feel a slight tingle. My skin felt a bit cleaner, but the smell was getting to me a little.
• Third try: Went for 5 drops. I applied this mixture on my face after cleansing. This seemed to be the sweet spot for me. My face felt refreshed, and it actually felt like the lotion was working better. It was also helping to remove the residue.

I kept doing this for a few weeks, applying the mixture every day after washing my face. Honestly, my skin started to look a little clearer. It wasn’t a miracle or anything, but it did seem like it was helping to keep things balanced. The pH things worked. It was good.

One thing I learned is that you gotta be careful with tea tree oil. Too much can be irritating. And like I said, the smell can be a bit much at first, but you kinda get used to it. Or maybe I just stopped noticing. Anyway, it’s definitely something to experiment with slowly. You want to use it every day. And you have to find that right amount that works for your skin.

So yeah, that’s my experience with the lotion and tea tree oil mix. It’s not gonna solve all your skin problems overnight, but it might be worth a shot if you’re looking for something to add to your routine. Just remember to start slow, listen to your skin, and don’t be afraid to adjust the amount of oil you use. Good luck! You can use it!
