Tea Tree Essential Oil
Tea tree oil is extracted from the leaves of the tea tree plant and is a light yellow to clear liquid. Also called melaleuca oil, tea tree oil is native to Australia and was primarily used to brew tea. In early communities, tea tree leaves were grinded up and applied to cuts, burns, and infections as an antiseptic. Today, the oil is valued for its antifungal, antibacterial, and antiviral properties and used in both medical and cosmetic fields.
