Tea tree - essential oil 100% 15 ml

Tea tree is one of most popular essential oils widely applied in natural medicine. It is obtained from Melaleuca alternifolia plant, and initially it was used for many purposes by the Aborigines in Australia. Its name may be misleading because actually it doesn’t have anything in common with tea. Compresses made of pressed leaves were used to dress wounds, fragrant infusions soothed sore throat and were a panacea for all skin problems.
