As the heat intensifies, makeup takes a back seat because the skin begs to breathe! As dramatic as it may sound, many people suffer from the worst skin during the summer months. Any form of instant relief is highly appreciated during the days of terrible breakouts and redness that accompany the warm weather. The Body Shop Tea Tree Skin Clearing Lotion is one such instant remedy that calms down my skin.
I use this lotion as a day cream whenever I suffer from hormonal breakouts. It immediately mattifies my skin and the tea tree oil helps in reducing the redness and irritation. It also prevents further acne and shrinks any swellings that are early signs of gigantic pimples.
The formula is very light and almost like a gel. A tiny drop is sufficient for the face and the neck and it keeps the oil at bay for a few hours. I have also noticed that makeup applies really well on top of this lotion. In fact, I often skip primer when I use this product. As far as I know, this lotion does not contain any SPF, so you will need an additional step of applying sunscreen before you step out of the house.
Priced at INR 995 for a 50 ml tube, this product is on the pricier side but it works as a great moisturizer for the days when your skin is too oily and temperamental. I would highly recommend this product to those with extremely greasy and acne-prone skin, the antibacterial action of this mattifying lotion will work wonders for you!
I hope that this review was helpful, you can buy The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil Mattifying Lotion here.

Little pricier but I think it would work better .
Agreed. Because of the price I reserve it for the days when my skin is particularly messed up.
This is so perfect because I literally just went through a mini break out and this would’ve done the trick perfectly!! ahh definitely next time hehe thanks for sharing this product!! xxx
Do give it a shot next time 🙂
I use this stuff! My skin is always breaking out and I find this very helpful!
I love it because it is so soothing 🙂
I’m so mad at this lotion because it ruined my skin! I guess it’s not really made for people with sensitive skin! I was concealing for weeks!
It is best suited for those with super oily skin, might not work with sensitive skin.
I love the smell of this. Wonder why did not buy it 😐
You should buy it 🙂 It is great for summers!
