Description
Steam distilled from the leaves and twigs of the plant, tea tree essential oil is a clear, colorless liquid with a medium middle fragrance note. Its aromas are fresh, woodsy and slightly medicinal, and it is well known for its healing properties. It is astringent and antimicrobial, and can be used both topically and in antibacterial cleaning sprays. Diffuse in the air to cleanse a sick room, or vaporize to stimulate the lungs when congested. Supports a healthy immune system and is effective in treating teenage acne or other oily skin conditions as well as for reducing the appearance of scars. Soothing and cleansing, it is recommended to use at a maximum dilution strength of 15%.

Keep away from children, and do not apply near the eyes, mucous membranes, sensitive or broken skin.
