Era OrganicsTea Tree Cream Face Moisturizer for Oily Skin - Advanced 7X Balancing Oily Skin Moisturizer - Non-Greasy Moisturizer - Tea Tree Oil for Skin

I have adult cystic/hormonal acne. Have had it for as long as I can remember! I've used every product under the sky. I am very critical about the products I use, especially since I have suffered severe acne and have ice-pick scarring. I am very picky, but this cream is definitely joining my list of favorites. Its pricing is a lot more reasonable and the ingredients are all natural! Love that although it goes on the skin greasily, it is absorbed within a minute or two into the skin, leaving the skin moisturized, matte and primed for make-up application. No sign of oiliness through the day either. Definitely non-comedogenic. This is also one of the few creams I've used that seems to really reduce my acne flare-ups. It is definitely not an overnight pimple-shrinking miracle product, but it appears to work slowly and sustain the anti-acne activity for a long time. As for scarring though, I cannot say it works wonders, but it is definitely eliminating my acne redness and smoothing out my skin tone. I've been using this loyally for 3 weeks now, 2x a day, and unlike SEVERAL products that over-promise and under-deliver, this does not disappoint. This cream's going to be a part of my acne-care regimen forever!

I bought this product for myself. I'm an adult who has struggled with adult cystic acne. Thanks to dermatology most of that is fixed, I only occasionally have zits and cysts. Being winter my skin just feels dry because of the products I use. I bought this to help with that.... and still keep acne at bay (hopefully!). So far it has worked great for me, and I even noticed that when I was feeling acne pop up it didn't really ever come full on and quickly dissipated. It seems to be working for me! (yay!) But I use several products so I wasn't convinced it was solely this product.THEN... my son (13) has been having some acne. Being a teenager sux. He uses a dermatology recommended face wash and the over the counter .1% Differin gel. Differin gel dries out acne pretty well, but my son was experiencing lots of dryness, continued acne, and some scaliness. It just looked bad and painful! WISH I had taken a picture! He said it itched a lot too and as we all know constant face touching also does no favors! I told him to try this moisturizer for the simple fact his face was DRY and that he should use it every morning for awhile and to not use the gel tonight as his skin needed some recovery time. He used it at noon Sunday. THE VERY NEXT MORNING, I went to remind him about using my (this!) face lotion... and took a look at his acne. I SWEAR... it's practically gone. The redness is gone. The dry patchy scaliness... gone. Even the acne itself is SO improved. Yesterday it was a total breakout all over his nose and around his mouth, then today (next day!) it is almost complete recovery. Even he was impressed (impressing a 13 yr old is difficult).I'm totally blown away! Wasn't even planning on writing a review until this happened. As someone who has struggled with acne I've used everything under the sun and I've NEVER seen results like this so quickly on something that isn't an actual product from the dermatologist. I'm buying him one. My 12 yr old daughter one, and I'm not stopping using it anytime soon! It's probably even helping me more than I realized.

so i haven't been using this long so i can't make 100% certainty of if it works, but i do want to say that because of how my face works, i try to not use too much. it makes my face feel really nice and smooth (and not as oily!), and that's a huge perk! but, i think it doesn't work well for getting rid of acne. i started to use it alongside with my actual prescription acne medication and it actually helps balance out the dryness that the medication has been causing me.my general advice for anyone getting this is: if your acne medicine dries your face out, try to use it with this (like, using this cream in the morning, and the medicine at night, etc... whatever works for you as long as its not at the same time) because it helps get rid of the acne plus keeps your face smooth. its good to take breaks between one or the other, too. also, don't use too much cream, you seriously don't need so much because you only need a little for it to absorb and make your face all nice.also, it smells pretty good! a very good perk. also, make sure you wash your hands or something before applying the cream, since you use your fingers.
