How much do I need?

Australian Tea Tree essential oil is one of the most functional and well-documented oils in the world, and one of the most essential in any serious collection. 

Steam distilled from the leaves of Melaleuca alternifolia, a species native to Australia, it has been studied extensively and trusted broadly for its crisp, assertive aroma and its reliable performance across home care, personal care, and skin care applications. It is a cornerstone ingredient for makers building cleaning products, blemish-focused skin care, hair and scalp formulations, foot care, and natural deodorants. Direct, purposeful, and consistently useful, this is an oil that always justifies its place on the shelf.

How to use

Diffuse during seasonal transitions or in spaces that feel stale, stuffy, or in need of a functional, clarifying reset.
Tea Tree is one of the most widely used essential oils in DIY home care and personal product making globally. A cornerstone ingredient in natural all-purpose cleaners, bathroom scrubs, toilet bowl formulas, mold-deterrent sprays, and laundry blends.

Frequently used in natural skin care for acne-prone, oily, and blemish-prone skin when properly diluted in serums, spot treatments, and cleansing blends. Commonly added to shampoos, scalp treatments, and dandruff-targeting hair care formulas for a clean, clarifying aromatic note.

Popular in natural deodorant formulations, foot care products, foot soaks, and nail care blends. Frequently included in hand sanitizer-inspired body sprays and surface wipes.

Used in outdoor blends and insect-deterrent formulas as part of a functional aromatic profile. Can be added to pet care products and diluted fabric freshening sprays.

Always dilute before applying to skin and avoid contact with eyes.

Caution

Skin sensitivity may occur. Essential oils are highly concentrated and should be diluted before applying directly to the skin. Keep out of reach from children. If pregnant or breastfeeding please ask your doctor before use.
