The Plantnery Tea Tree Acne 2% BHA Drying Lotion is a fast-acting biphasic solution designed to “dry out” and eliminate localised breakouts overnight. This intensive treatment combines the natural antiseptic power of Tea Tree with the clinical efficacy of 2% Salicylic Acid (BHA). It is the ideal secret weapon for those moments when an unexpected breakout appears and you need a solution that drastically reduces swelling, redness and infection while you sleep.
The formula was developed to act specifically on inflammatory acne. Unlike creams that spread, this drying lotion adheres to the blemish, creating an active barrier that draws out impurities and excess sebum from the pore, without irritating the rest of the face. On waking, the breakout looks visibly smaller, drier and in an advanced stage of healing.
Key Ingredients and Their Benefits
The efficacy of this product lies in its two-layer formula (powder and liquid):
Salicylic Acid (BHA) 2%: The ideal concentration to penetrate the congested pore, dissolve sebum and exfoliate the dead cells that feed acne bacteria.
Tea Tree Extract (Melaleuca Alternifolia): One of nature’s most potent antibacterial and antifungal agents. It helps disinfect the breakout and reduce inflammation immediately.
Zinc Oxide and Calamine: These minerals form the pink layer at the bottom of the bottle. They are responsible for absorbing excess secretion from the breakout and soothing the skin, reducing the red appearance and the pain.
Centella Asiatica Extract (Cica): Included to accelerate skin regeneration, ensuring that, after the breakout dries, the skin recovers quickly without leaving marks or deep scars.
Skin Benefits and Targeted Action
Overnight “Drying” Effect: Acts quickly to reduce the size of the breakout.
Pore Unclogging: BHA ensures the focus of the infection is cleaned from within.
Inflammation Relief: Soothes the pain and heat associated with internal breakouts (spots).
Prevention of Marks: By treating acne without the need to “squeeze”, it minimises the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Who It Is For
People with Occasional Acne: Ideal for isolated breakouts that appear due to stress, hormones or diet.
Combination to Oily Skin: For those who suffer from clogged pores and frequent inflammation.
Users Looking for SOS Treatments: For those who need quick results before important events.
How to Use (IMPORTANT)
DO NOT SHAKE THE BOTTLE: The efficacy of this product depends on the separation of the two phases. The pink powder should be at the bottom and the transparent liquid at the top.
Application: Dip a clean cotton bud to the bottom of the bottle so as to collect the pink powder.
Direct Application: Apply the cotton bud directly onto the breakout (do not rub, just “touch” the blemish).
Drying: Let it dry and go to sleep. Do not rinse during the night.
Cleansing: In the morning, wash your face as usual to remove the pink residue.

FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do if the bottle is shaken by accident? No problem. Simply place the bottle on a flat surface and wait a few minutes (or hours) until the pink powder settles completely at the bottom before use.
Can I use it under make-up? It is not recommended, as the product dries and leaves a visible pink mark on the skin. It is a treatment exclusively for night-time use or for staying at home.
Can it be used on internal breakouts (without a “head”)? Yes! BHA and Tea Tree penetrate the skin to help reduce internal inflammation, helping the breakout disappear faster or come to the surface.
Will I feel a tingling sensation? It is normal to feel a slight tingling in the first few seconds due to the action of salicylic acid and antiseptic alcohol working on the infected area.
Safety Note
It is always recommended to check the physical packaging to confirm the complete and up-to-date ingredient list, as manufacturers may make changes to formulas. If excessive irritation occurs, discontinue use.
