Anyone else dealing with Demodex Mites? What helps?

Re the PaulMitchell… it is the shampoo that I was my hair and face with. Then I put the body/hair (leave in conditioner) on my hair but all over my face and I scrub my lids and eyebrows with it. Of course the problem is that it contains tea tree oil, ( also lavender and mint) but it doesn’t indicate per cent age. It is about the third ingredient in the list of ingredients. Last week I decided to increase the TTO in each bottle and added 1 mil of 100% TYO to an 8 oz bottle. I think that has helped even more, though it now smells like terpentine ( my husband me has assured me that he can’t smell it!). So, that is all I am currently doing. I am going to buy the eyelid brush that Nancyjg has recommended. I tend to have very sensitive skin, so I have been careful w TTO, but so far so good.

I was just on Amazon and was unable to find Paul Mitchell tea tree shampoo or lavender mint . Could it have been discontinued or they just don't carry that one? Lots listed but only specific ingredient was for Awapuhi with cucumber melon for fine , static-prone hair , which actaully sounds right for me. But no tea tree.. I liked and used this brand years ago.

Hi, cmcg, please disregard my previous reply . I finally looked on the PM website and discovered Tea Tree Special, that I assumed was another brand, is theirs. I noticed it before, but I saw nothing on the bottle itself links to PM. Thanks for the details on how you use it on your face as well. I will add this to my arsenal .
