Primary Benefits:

  • Cleansing and purifying properties
  • Rejuvenating aroma to freshen the air

Description:

Tea Tree essential oil is one of the most loved and diverse essential oils in the industry. Tea Tree essential oil possesses over 92 different compounds and, as such, can be used in seemingly endless ways in home and wellness practices.

Tea Tree oil has a long history of such applications. Historically derived from the Melaleuca plant of Australia, it was a daily necessity for many of Australia’s ancient peoples. The Bundjalung Aboriginal people from the coast of New South Wales often applied the leaves directly to the skin for a cooling effect. Over time, the knowledge of Tea Tree’s numerous benefits spread worldwide, leading to arguably its most popular use today—in essential oil. The benefits of Tea Tree essential oil are numerous, so it’s no wonder why it’s so popular, especially when used in aromatherapy.*
