Tea Tree essential oil is an amazing substance with a cure-all ability that should put it at the top of your must-have list for essential oils. It is effective for everything from bug bites and bleeding gums to dandruff and eczema. Use it when you are sick, hurt, struggling with a skin infection or irritation, or simply want to feel and smell good. Tea tree has very strong antibacterial, antiviral and anti fungal properties, as well as anti inflammatory effects. It also contains cineol and propanol, two naturally occurring chemicals that fight gingivitis and reduce the occurrence of plaque.
