I am sure every single one of you suffered from a spot, blemish or another facial disaster during their life. Luckily, I do not get that many breakouts, but occasionally I do... and I never know what to do with them. Recently I discovered the Blemish Stick from Australian Bodycare which I fell in love with *-*
About

Ingredients
Tea Tree Oil - fungicidal, antiseptic & antibacterial. Restores skin's bacterial flora and heals the skin without harming the cell and tissue growth
Witch hazel - cools and calms, taking stinging or irritation out of blemishes
Polygrlyceryl- 3- Caprylate & Caprylyl Glycol - emulsifiers that react with bacteria on the skin
Panthenol - aids healing
Hammamelis Virginiana Water - calming, soothing, reduces redness and inflammation
Allantoin - soothes and repairs the skin
Packaging
I love that the product comes in a small bottle, with a rollerball feature. The small size makes it very easy to carry around wherever I go, so I can always have it with me. The rollerball feature ensures even distribution of the product and decreases the possibility of bacteria getting into the tube. You can be sure that the product will not spill in your bag which always happens with my beauty products.
Effects
The blemish stick worked very well on spots and blemishes. I applied it whenever I had a breakout to
ensure that the spot was disinfected, and to quicken the healing process. I found the product very effective, reducing the redness around the infected area, and healing the spots. For best effects it should be used 3-4 times a day.
Not only does tea tree oil have antiseptic and antibacterial properties, but it also works as a mosquito repellant. Definitely a great emergency product and a festival must-have!
