This natural oil can be used also in aromatherapy. A great way to balance out oily skin is by using a blend of essential oil with some coarse sea salt.

Apply the scrub mixture onto your face in circular motions avoiding the eye area. Rinse off with tepid water. The salt aids in exfoliation, while the oil clears the skin, dries up the oily areas and calms the skin.

“Down under” Wonder

The tea tree is native to Australia and northern New South Wales. The oil is obtained by steam distillation of its leaves.

True tea tree oil comes from the Malaeuca tea tree. There are many brands out there that are from inferior trees. Make sure your purchase is genuine.
