Packaging:-I adore the packaging! It comes in a green, lightweight, plastic bottle with a pump dispenser and a transparent plastic cap. It is small in size and will fit easily into the smallest of pouches. The pump is of excellent quality and works efficiently in a consistent manner. It never gets stuck and neither does it dispense too much or little. The mouth of the dispenser is pretty small and is thus very effective in delivering the right amount of lotion. The cap fits snugly and has not dislodged itself in all the times I?ve travelled with this. The bottle along with the cap is extremely sturdy and if you?re the clumsy kind, you?ll jump in joy since this is virtually indestructible! Overall, the packaging is super easy to use and is a treat to travel with.

Performance:I have EXTREMELY acne-prone skin and since it is hormonal it keeps coming back irrespective of however nicely I take care of my skin After I began using this, I saw a difference in my skin within just two days. Within a few days, my skin cleared up so dramatically that I began suspecting if I was pregnant!! No kidding!

Since the weather was a bit dry at that time, I?d changed my entire skincare routine and was using a host of new products. It took me a while to figure out which product was actually making a difference. I discontinued using each product one by one and finally narrowed it down to this miracle worker.

In summer, the results weren?t as dramatic but it surely did work better than any other over-the-counter product that I?ve tried. I?ve been using this for more than 4 months now and noticed that it does fade blemishes but it does take time. Don?t expect overnight results with regard to stubborn acne marks. It does not help with pore-size but then it doesn?t claim to do that either. It does help make skin smooth and even-toned.

There are very few night creams/lotions out there which are specifically designed to suit those with oily skin. Most night treatments are overly hydrating and make oily skin further greasy and thus prone to acne. This lotion does hydrate but to the optimal level without ever being greasy. Those with dry skin will find this quite drying. Combination skin can use this in summers. Those with oily to very oily skin rejoice! This night lotion will be your new best friend!

?Final thoughts:

I?ve been meaning to try The Body Shop?s Tea Tree Range like forever but I honestly believed it was overhyped and overpriced owing to the established brand name. I?ve used my fair share of Tea Tree products and felt that they were too mild for my skin since almost all of them did virtually nothing. But now I?m a believer! This is by far the most lightweight, non-greasy, refreshingly-scented, transfer-resistant night lotion I?ve ever used! It helps a GREAT deal in keeping my skin clear. It does not completely eliminate hormonal acne, but then it?s not possible for a topical lotion to do that. Its effect on blemishes is slow but visible after continued usage. The efficient, sturdy, travel-friendly packaging is an added bonus. Those with oily, acne-prone skin should most certainly give this a try.
