Tea Tree Essential Oil (Australia)
Fresh, sharp, and herbaceous, Australian Tea Tree is a powerful cleansing and purifying essential oil widely valued for skin care and respiratory support. Its high terpinen-4-ol content gives it strong antimicrobial properties while still being gentle enough—when fresh and properly diluted—for everyday use.
Uses:
• Spot treatments (diluted) for blemishes
• Cleansing skin blends and foot care
• Diffusion for air purification
• Household cleaning mixes
Why freshness matters:
Tea Tree oxidizes more quickly than many oils. Old or oxidized tea tree oil should never be used on the skin, as it becomes much more sensitizing and increases the risk of reactions.
Safety:
• Always dilute before topical use
• Avoid using oxidized/old oil on the skin
• External use only
• Keep away from young children if they have sensitive airways or skin
