Question:
The Body Shop-tea tree facewash
Hey :wave: Bought this and thought it was great the first time i used, really clean feeling and foamy, but i must be far more sensitive than i realised-was using it twice a day and my skin started getting really itchy, bright red and patchy, and scabby on my nose, little dry patches around my mouth too.
So it must be too strong for me, im going to try using it just once per day, maybe at night to take makeup off with and see if thats better.
Anyone else use this?
Ps- Have you ever heard of taking your old bottles in to The Body Shop and getting refills for a cheaper price?A woman at work swore that they do this and looked all :cmeek: when i said i didnt know they done that!:o :lol:
They dont really do they?
TBS Tea Tree stuff should only be used if your face resembles a chip pan - if you have at all sensitive skin it will strip your skin and make it hurt... which is what is happening to you.
I never, ever reccomend it to ANYONE - I don't think stripping that much off your face can be good for it at all. The Seaweed range is much better.
And no we don't refill :D We just recycle the old packaging.
Hey Hun :wave:
I have used this and I thought that harsh was not the word to describe it!!! Try using it a couple of times a week instead of every day and see if it gets any better?
Have you been moisturising afterwards?

God i wish id asked you about this before i bought it!Now i probably hve the answer why my face is looking so messed up this week!
I do have sensitibe skin so it must be destroying my skin!:o
Ill save it for like twice a week or something for a Deep Cleanse!

Hey:wave: How are you?
I moisturised a couple of times after using it and it didnt really help, i think i must have taken quite badly to it coz my face is much redder than usual!Its not usually red like :o alll the time!Coz even with thick makeup on its been showing through really red so it must be this!
Me and facewashes really dont seem to go!:p
