Skin Clearing Fabulousness - The Body Shop's Tea Tree Collection (Photos)

When it comes to skin care it seems like I've tried just about everything! I've been searching for that 'miracle' skin product that will give me a complexion like those of models I've seen in magazines. I've had bad acne since I went off to college 8 years ago and have been seeing a dermatologist ever since.

In the past I've been convinced to buy overpriced skin creams and washes and never saw much improvement in my face from them - talk about frustrating! Over the last few weeks I've been fortunate enough to try a line of skin care products from The Body Shop.

This included their Tea Tree Collection for blemished skin:

FUN FACT: The tea tree is organically grown around the base of Mount Kenya without the use of nasty pesticides.

MY THOUGHTS: The mask is smooth and creamy, and it instantly cools as you apply it. The mask removes impurities from your face without over-drying it. So many masks tend to dry out my skin which (hello!) just goes to cause your skin to produce more oil!

The skin clearing lotion absorbs quickly, is non-greasy, and is infused with tamanu oil. The facial wash is extremely gentle and non-irritating. Sounds too good to be true doesn't it?

To top it all off - I've seen significant improvement in my skin and complexion. These products are a must buy and work well for individuals with normal to blemished skin like me!
