Tea Tree Oil Uses
Tea tree oil, also known as melaleuca oil, is an essential oil that comes from steaming the leaves of the tea tree plant. It is commonly used on skin and hair. When applied topically, tea tree oil is believed to be antibacterial. Tea tree oil can also be used for treating acne, athlete’s foot, lice or nail fungus as well as insect bites. [MayoClinic].
Tea Tree Oil for Hair
The severe chemicals found in hair products or dyes can strip your follicle of essential nutrients and cause inflammation. Using small amounts of diluted tea tree oil down the shafts will help prevent the buildup of build-up and dead skin cells which keeps the scalp healthy.
If you are using Tea Tree oil for the first time, do a simple patch test. This can be done by applying 3-5 drops of tea tree oil and watching for any signs of redness or irritation for 24 hours. If there is no reaction then it should be safe to use on a larger surface area such as your scalp.
Never apply 100% Tea Tree Oil directly onto your hair as it will cause severe itching and flaking from dry skin. You must first dilute it with a carrier oil such as coconut oil or other substances such as aloe vera gel or apple cider vinegar before application.
At the start go for 5% concentration. This translates to 5 milliliters (mL) of tea tree oil per 100 mL of the carrier substance. You may also try adding 5% concentration (5mL) in 100 mL shampoo.
For dandruff hair, apply a shampoo with 5% tea tree oil to your scalp. Lather for 3 minutes daily for 4 weeks.
For healthy hair, dilute tea tree oil with a 1 to 10 ratio of tea tree oil to almond oil or another similar oil. Use the mixture every day to get the best results.[Healthline]
Tea Tree Oil for Skin
Similar to using Tea Tree oil on your scalp, do a patch test first and wait 24 hours.
Before applying 100% tea tree oil to the skin, it’s important to dilute the oil with a carrier oil, such as olive oil, coconut oil, or almond oil.
For every 1 to 2 drops of tea tree oil, add 12 drops of a carrier oil.
You should also be careful if you are using tea tree oil in the area around your eyes. If irritation or redness appears, you may want to reduce the usage.
Tea Tree oil may provide relief for dry skin, eczema, oily skin, itchy skin and inflammation. [Healthline]
Tea Tree Oil Side Effects
Mouth: Tea tree oil should never be used internally. It can be toxic and potentially fatal if you ingest it. Taking tree tea oil by mouth has caused serious side effects, including confusion, inability to walk, unsteadiness, rash, and coma.
Skin: Tea tree oil is possibly safe for most people. It may cause skin irritation or swelling in some cases, though acne sufferers should know it can sometimes worsen dryness, itching, stinging and redness. [WebMD]
Tea Tree Oil Price
In Singapore a 50ml bottle of Tea Tree Oil can vary from $25 to $45.

Always refer to the directions on the label. For best absorption, some dietary supplements should be taken with food; you may need to take others on an empty stomach. If it is not stated if you should eat before a meal or after, it means it doesn't matter and you can take it any time of the day.
If you forget to take your recommended dosage occasionally, it is fine. Just continue the next day.
