Note: Not all essential oil brands are the same, and you get what you pay for. If you expect to achieve results similar to those described in this testimonial, then ensure that you are using oils from pesticide-free plants. Also, the brand should use 100% pure, high-quality essential oils that do not contain any synthetic additives. Do your own research or ask a trusted friend to find a brand that is reputable. Buyer beware.
I was getting one of those deep pimples that never come to a head, but swell horribly and hurt really bad. I was using the Purification oil blend, which is known to work on pimples, but it didn't seem to help with that one.
So I put a drop of the Thieves oil blend on my upper lip before bed and, by the next morning, it was about 1/4 of the size that it was before. I have been applying it each morning and at night before bed and it is definitely shrinking.
I also used Thieves oil on my tongue. I had one of those spots on my tongue that felt very swollen and painful. I put what oil was left on my fingertip on the spot. Later that day I didn't have anymore pain.
