Review of LUSH Tea Tree Water by TheMoonBunny

I have sensitive, acne-prone combination skin. I have been using this toner water for 2 years as part of a twice-daily regimen, beginning with Lush's Angels on Bare Skin, then the toner water, then Lush's Vanishing Cream moisturizer. Before I started this regimen, I had suffered from severe cystic acne for 12 years. My dermatologist told me my final option was Accutane, which I declined to use. I'm still shocked that after all those medical approaches, Lush is what cured my face.


Here's a before & after photo for you:

(In the second two photos, I'm also wearing Bare Minerals original foundation, mineral veil, and and warmth bronzer.)


PROS
--- easy to use with no mess -- just a few quick sprays and I'm done
--- calms my skin and prevents break outs
--- gentle with no chemicals (doesn't make my face burn!!)
--- can be used on legs, pubic area, etc. to prevent ingrown hairs (it makes a big difference!)
--- can be sprayed on your back to clear up acne / remove black heads (did this with my bf)


CONS
--- seems kind of expensive, but usually lasts me about 4-5 months, which is ~$5.48 per month.
--- not easy to travel with unless you buy the little bottle, but it's overpriced; I recycled an older travel-sized spray bottle instead.
