Tea Tree Oil

Treat your skin with terrific tea tree oil

 

Whether you’re looking for a natural way to soothe acne-prone skin or you want a product which will help keep your hands squeaky clean, tea tree oil could be the answer.

 

This fantastic essential oil from Australia is a crucial ingredient in many of our antibacterial health and beauty products. Discover gels and cleansers with tea tree oil for spots, plus tea tree oil treatments for wounds, your teeth, and even your toes!

 

What is tea tree oil?

 

Tea tree oil is extracted from the leaves of the melaleuca alternifolia, a tree native to certain parts of Australia. It’s sometimes called melaleuca oil and has been used for generations by Aborigines as a traditional remedy for all manner of health complaints.

 

Tea tree oil benefits

 

This strongly-scented natural oil has long been lauded for its natural healing benefits and the fact that it is:

 

A natural antibacterial

 

Tea tree oil’s status as an antibacterial makes it a key ingredient in many natural health products. This includes everything from deodorant and face washes to foot treatments, hand gels, and toothpaste.

 

One of the many antibacterial compounds in tea tree essential oil is terpinen-4-ol which, according to some research, has been shown to have antibacterial effects.

 

An anti-inflammatory

 

As well as its bacteria-fighting abilities, tea tree is also incredible at soothing inflammation. If you’ve got itchy or swollen skin, applying something containing tea tree oil could help to soothe it and quickly reduce redness.

 

Because of this, tea tree oil is often used in shampoos to combat dandruff. It’s also a common ingredient in after-sun lotions which are designed to cool sore, sunburnt skin.

 

How to use tea tree oil

 

If you’re wondering what tea tree is good for, you’ll find this plant-based powerhouse has heaps of potential uses! Why not use it to:

 

Soothe skin complaints

 

Tea tree oil for acne is by far one of its most common uses, which is why it’s often added to face washes and creams. That’s all down to the fact it can help cleanse the skin of impurities while also reducing inflammation and swelling.

 

Keep your body fresh

 

Tea tree oil’s skill for keeping the skin free from bacteria makes it an excellent ingredient for many natural deodorants. What’s more, it has a fantastic scent which will ensure you smell fresh all day long.

 

Natural antiseptic

 

Its status as a natural antiseptic means it can rid nails of bacteria and allow them to regrow strong and healthy.

 

Keep your hands squeaky clean

 

Reap the antibacterial benefits of this Australian plant by picking up some tea tree oil hand soap. As well as fighting germs, it can also calm down sores or redness on your skin.

 

Look after your oral health

 

Tea tree oil toothpaste is a great natural alternative to regular kinds of toothpaste. You could also make your own antibacterial mouthwash by adding a drop of pure tea tree oil to a glass of water. Just make sure you don’t swallow, since ingesting it can be toxic.

 

Note that due to its intense strength, pure tea tree essential oil shouldn’t be applied directly to the skin. Instead, choose a tea tree oil for skin product which contains this brilliant natural remedy. You could also add a few drops of pure tea tree oil to your bathwater, into a vaporiser, or into 10ml of carrier oil to make your own moisturiser.

 

Shop dozens of tea tree oil products in our range below. From natural bar soaps that’ll soothe sores on your hands through to pure tea tree essential oil which you can use to make your own mouthwash.
