I just received my OTO of Tea Tree Body Lotion, Remoist and Oil. I tried the lotion and while the fragrance isn't my favorite, the scent disappears on dry down and feels pretty amazing on the skin..sinks right in. I'm not yet ready to try the Remoist, but I couldn't wait to try the TT oil so I already put on 4 dropperfuls to my scalp and massaged well and will keep it on overnight. My question is..are there any tricks to getting it to rinse out well in the morning? Is the regular CC clean, rinse, repeat routine enough? Are there some CCs that are better for the morning after an oil treatment?

I do my normal cleanse, rinse repeat , really concentrating on my scalp area and using enough water to get it very creamy. Then I rinse rinse rinse my first cleanse as well as my second. Enjoy!

I use either Tea Tree or Cucumber Aloe for my first cleanse after an oil treatment (but that's pretty standard for me even without using the oils the night before). I make sure I add plenty of water to make it frothy, and rinse really well. I can use any CC for my second cleanse and my scalp will be perfectly clean.

I was a bit anxious when I first tried the oils, didn't really believe that the oils would was cleanly away without "lather"........I was totally wrong!! After continuous use of the oils, my scalp's oil production has stabilized and I can now go three or four days without cleansing. (In the past, even using Wen, I had to cleanse every other day.)

I was super worried, too. I've had some bad experiences with coconut oil and mayonnaise before, so I had a bottle of Dawn dish detergent by the tub in case of an emergency. It came out much more easily than I could have imagined. I do get my hair soaking wet with warm water and rinse and massage my scalp some before I add any WEN to my hair and I think that helps.

I have the Sweet Almond Mint oil and lotion and I love to add a few drops of the oil to the body lotion before I mix it in my hands and smooth it all over. That just amps it up and makes it feel even better.

I was a little worried about the same thing when I added the oils to my routine. But I have never had a problem getting them out with the cleanse, rinse and repeat.

I was also so glad to see that you think the TT BL smell goes away. I ordered the BL OTO and was a little worried about the TT smell for lotion, but I really wanted the TT oil and remoist!

Thanks you guys..and so glad to hear that the oil can help stabilize an oily scalp! With fine hair and oily skin it's just what I need. I remember when I first tried TT CC way back and found the scent kind of offensive, but sitting here smelling it it's kinda nice in a medicinal/herbal kind of way

[MsMandy]

Yep Sammybear..really wanted the BL in pretty much anything BUT TT, but wanted oil and Remoist in TT more

You guys were right..the TT oil washed out easily as part of my normal CC cleansing routine How many times/week do you usually do the overnight oil to see benefits? I'm thinking maybe only twice a week would be enough?

Twice a week is great! I try to do them as often as possible but sometimes it's once a week and other times it can be 4 times a week. I just received my TT lotion, oil and remoist. I've used the oils for a while but this is my first time using the TToil. I have cats so I have to be very cautious with the TT, so I won't use it overnight but I put it on this morning and will wash it out later today. That way I still get the treatment for hours but I won't expose my fur babies to it. Also, put 1/2 dropper of the oil in a pump of the lotion and massage it into skin. Amazing results!! My skin has never looked this good! I swear by it! :-)

BethanyB..please tell me more about TT and cats. I know undiluted pure TT oil is highly toxic, but I thought the amount in WEN wouldn't be an issue?
