To use tea tree oil with aloe vera gel, mix a few drops of tea tree oil with a small amount of aloe vera gel, apply to the desired area, and leave it on for 10-15 minutes before rinsing with lukewarm water.
Here's a more detailed guide:
Dilution: Always dilute tea tree oil with aloe vera gel or another carrier oil, as it is a potent essential oil and can cause skin irritation if used undiluted.
Mixing: Take a small amount of aloe vera gel and add 1-3 drops of tea tree oil, depending on the area you're treating and your skin's sensitivity.
Application: Apply the mixture to the affected area, such as acne, blemishes, or itchy skin.
Duration: Leave the mixture on for 10-15 minutes, or as directed by your dermatologist or other healthcare professional.
Rinse: Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and pat dry.
Frequency: You can repeat this process 2-3 times a week, or as needed.
Storage: Store the mixture in a cool, dark place.
Patch Test: Before applying the mixture to a larger area, do a patch test on a small area of skin to check for any adverse reactions.
