Product details
Tea tree oil is primarily known for its antiseptic and antimicrobial properties, proving effective against a wide range of bacteria, viruses and fungi, including yeasts and dermatophytes (fungus that can cause skin diseases).
“Tea tree oil, an extremely concentrated extract from the leaves of the tea tree, is a popular ingredient in home, skin and general health care products for its variety of uses,” says Rachelle Robinett, herbalist and founder of New York-based functional nature company Pharmakon Supernatural. “The oil is most notably antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial and antioxidant. Like most plants, it works in many ways; however, tea tree tends to be most popular as a topical antiseptic for preventing the growth of problematic microorganisms that can cause or worsen infections.
1. Tea Tree Oil for Acne:
Diluted tea tree oil can be a helpful ingredient in face wash, especially for acne-prone skin. A study in the Medical Journal of Australia found participants benefited more from using a gel containing 5% tea tree oil for the treatment of mild to moderate acne than a lotion containing 5% benzoyl peroxide (a common acne-fighting ingredient used in skincare products). The results suggested tea tree oil helped reduce both inflamed and non-inflamed lesions better than the benzoyl peroxide lotion. The tea tree oil gel did work slower than the benzoyl peroxide lotion, but it also led to fewer side effects.
2. Tea Tree Oil for Healthy Hair:
This essential oil is often added to shampoo in various potencies to help relieve an itchy scalp, as well as restore hair’s natural luster. Some studies show tea tree oil used in combination with other essential oils like lavender oil may provide young women with relief from mild hirsutism, the growth of coarse, dark hair in areas where women typically grow fine hair or no hair at all. Additional research suggests tea tree oil can be beneficial in treating dandruff.
3. Tea Tree Oil for Improving Circulation:
According to naturopathic physician and founder of Wise Woman Herbals Sharon Maire Tilgner, tea tree oil can also be helpful for people with skin wounds, ulcers and bed sores.
“Tea tree is specifically indicated for external use in areas with decreased circulation and stagnation. Many people with diabetes, for instance, use tea tree oil neat (not diluted) on non-healing wounds with miraculous results,” she says. “I believe this [skin response] is due to a mix of antiseptic activity and the increase in local blood flow to the area. Decubitus ulcers or bed sores, another condition related to inadequate blood flow, are also quick to respond to tea tree oil’s healing action.”
4. Tree Tree Oil for Nail Health:
Onychomycosis, a fungal infection of the nails, is a common condition that affects about 10% of adults. Tea tree oil is one of the few homeopathic remedies that can be effective in treating it.
Researchers from the Department of Dermatology at the University of California San Francisco tested a cream consisting of 2% butenafine hydrochloride and 5% tea tree oil among 60 participants with onychomycosis. After 16 weeks of use, 80% of participants cured their nail fungus.
5. Tea Tree Oil for Healthy Skin
Many skin ailments can lead to itching—common issues include fungus, athlete’s foot and ringworm. Research suggests tea tree oil can help alleviate these issues, especially when dealing with tinea pedis, or foot fungus. One study of 158 people noted a significant improvement in the presence of foot fungus after applying a diluted solution of tea tree oil for four weeks.
6. Tea Tree Oil as an Oral Wash
Many oral health companies add tea tree oil to their mouthwash products to help clean teeth and gums naturally. It’s also easy to make your own tea tree oil-powered oral rinse at home.
