    I have read that tea tree oil is successful in treating psoriasis and eczema. Have any of you had success using this and can you use it on your face?

    Um, it could work to decrease the bacteria/fungus that is often present with these conditions.

    To avoid chemical burns (100% tea tree is an essential oil and strong), I'd mix a few drops of tea tree in a carrier (face lotion, coconut oil, etc.) and see how it goes. Keep away from eyes.

    My sister has used it for psoriasis and it worked fairly well. Not 100% but it helped. I use it on my face for acne and it's completely safe just don't get it in your eye.
