So far after seeing it mentioned on here, it has removed my skin tags and has finally started to cure my toenail of the start of a fungal infection- I can't believe it!
It's so simple and everything else I had tried hadn't worked!

Omg! The accidents are hilarious. Sorry I’m laughing. 🤣

I was in Boots on Thursday and, remembering this thread, I bought some tea tree oil.

I normally treat recommendations on social media with a huge pinch of salt, BUT … I had a huge and very painful cystic spot developing. It was red, swollen, hot, and sort of pointy, so in a normal person you’d expect it to come to a very satisfying and squeezable head. however, experience told me it would just gradually subside, only to inflame again next month or the month after.

so I bought the oil, and used it twice a day via a cotton wool ball saturated with water and squeezed out.

Bastard spot improved within hours, I tell you. I’m now able to go out without concealer and foundation on it, and I’m hopeful that it might even come to a slight head. If I can open it at that point, it might not come back month after month.
