Australia's native Melaleuca alternifolia, or tea tree, has many remarkable properties.

When crushed and distilled, the leaves yield an oil which is an antiseptic, a fungicide, and a mild solvent -- and is a renewable resource.

Ingredients: 100% pure Melaleuca oil. Certified organic P303.

Directions for use: apply the undiluted oil for use as a mild antiseptic for minor cuts, abrasions, bites and stings. Add half a capful to vaporisers for temporary relief of nasal and chest congestion. Dilute with baby oil for sensitive skin. Do not mix with detergents or other chemicals.

Other uses and benefits of tea tree oil

Head Lice: tea tree oil can kill head lice; soak combs and brushes in oil and hot water solution to kill eggs and lice
Cold sores: oil kills the germs and bacteria causing cold sores
Athletes foot: massage oil into affected areas to soothe, heal and prevent further outbreak
Aromatherapy: pure oil used in an oil burner cleans the air and creates a relaxed mood
Massage: add 5-10 drops of tea tree oil to plain massage oil.

Caution: Not to be taken. Keep out of reach of children.

Tea tree oil's major active component is terpinen-4-ol (typically 30-40%), which is responsible for tea tree oil's antibacterial and antifungal properties.

03/17/2012 Ivana R.		I love this Tea Tree oil so much! It's so incredibly versatile; I use it on my skin to treat blemishes and as an antiseptic, as well as diluted in water as a multi-perpose cleaning product. It's also very effective in the treatment of colds and flus.
