Expanded Overview:

Tea tree oil has been used for generations by the Aboriginal peoples of Australia and has since become a household name worldwide. Steam-distilled from the leaves of Melaleuca alternifolia, it is best known for its cleansing, purifying character, and is a mainstay of natural skincare blends aimed at supporting clear, healthy-looking, blemish-prone skin.

Its fresh, medicinal aroma also makes it a popular choice for diffusing and for natural cleaning blends around the home. As with all essential oils, tea tree is highly concentrated and should be diluted before skin contact and used with care. These traditional uses are not intended to diagnose, treat or cure any condition; anyone who is pregnant, breastfeeding or managing a health concern should consult a qualified healthcare practitioner before use.
