Hi all,

Is tea tree oil safe to use in pregnancy? (to dab on my horrible spots).

Many thanks

Charlotte

Yes!

I use tea tree oil for spots and also to freshen 2 yr old DS's washable nappies. Am 36 weeks pregnant and all well :)

Although be careful about using it on your face in the sun. I have a horrible brown pigment patch on my forehead where I put tea tree oil on a spot and then went out on a sunny day.

Thank you. I'll be careful not to do that then. I've had spots these past few years (I wonder why lol) but now have irritating little pimples on my cheeks. I love my hormones. NOT

Thanks again xxx
