Tea Tree

Ingredients: 100% pure essential oil

Tea Tree oil comes from the tea tree, a small tree or shrub with needle-like leaves, indigenous to Australia, which can grow up to 7 meters (20 feet) in height and thrives in marshy areas, though it is now cultivated in plantations. The Tea Tree is very robust. It is ready for cutting only two years after its previous harvest.

Tea Tree oil is best known for being a powerful immune stimulant with anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-viral properties. It is renowned for its cleansing and rejuvenating effect on the skin and promotes healthy immune function. Tea Tree essential oil can help combat colds, measles, sinusitis and viral infections. It is one of the only essential oils you can apply directly to your skin.
