Tea tree oil can be applied directly on the skin of most people, but people who are sensitive to tea tree oil can experience nasty reactions to tea tree oil applied undiluted on the skin. As such, you should use a cleanser, and a pimple gel containing tea tree oil instead.

Personally, my entire family finds tea tree oil ok on our skin, so for pimples and boils, we apply a drop of tea tree oil directly on the blemish every few hours. The pimple would ripen quickly, then burst on its own, probably while you are washing your face. It takes time but is effective.

Here are skin care products that contain tea tree oil, as well as tea tree oil itself if you are sure you are not sensitive to the oil applied neat.
