tea tree Essential oil

Tea Tree Physical Benefits and Effects: Tea tree oil can be a gentle method of controlling skin irritations and infections such as cold sores, athlete's foot, yeast infections, acne problems, insect bites and minor cuts, scrapes or scratches. While some people can develop a sensitivity to prolonged use of the essential oil, especially when poor quality oil is used, tea tree oil is considered safe for undiluted application to small areas of the skin. Even toddlers find Melaleuca oil a welcome relief to ant bites or small cuts kids are prone to.
