I'm allergic to multiple trees, can i be allergic to tea tree oil? my skin becomes very dry and sometimes red. i've heard it helps treat acne.

Don't bother: It is not useful for acne. It is not useful for dry, red skin. In fact it is not much good for anything except as profit to those who sell it to gullible suckers. Nothing related to your "tree allergies" but it can be irritating.
