At the first sign of a breakout or blemish this formula can really help to reduce the angry, inflamed look of the area. It can be dabbed directly onto the blemish, either under or over make-up and re-applied as necessary. It contains tea tree oil which is antiseptic and antibacterial, yet it doesn’t dry out the surrounding skin, which can cause ugly flaking, due to the natural vitamin E content. Lavender inhibits spot-causing bacteria, helping to control ‘spreading’. Use as soon as you feel the onset or ‘tingling’ sensation of a spot for best results, but can really help even if a spot has already formed. May also be used on bites or infected cuts before dressing.
