The Power Of Tea Tree

Ah, essential oils. It’s been written time and again in our beauty bible that these are the holy grails of skin care, and how a tiny dollop (or even less!) is extremely powerful.

Tea tree oil, for instance, has a lot of healing powers so to speak—so much that some even call its effects a miracle! So here I am, sharing with you all what makes this famous tea tree oil practically god-like in skincare haven.

Get to know the tea tree oil’s origin and early beginnings.

A gift from nature, tea tree oil is extracted from the Melaleuca alternifolia plant found in Australia. And I say—any plant with such a scientific sound probably does have a lot of clinical benefits

Tea tree oil became intensely popular in Australia, and for decades, has been used for its powerful anti-microbial, antiseptic, and anti-inflammatory properties. I honestly have never heard of an essential oil so “anti” until this.

Tea tree is like the millennial multi-hyphenate in essential oils.

Okay, Calyxta girls, brace yourselves, as tea tree has a multitude of benefits and uses, you might get lost. The best part though, is that we’ve got a handful of tea tree-infused products available on the site to cater to your every need. Yay!

So first, tea tree can be used to treat viral infections and serious skin diseases like psoriasis and eczema, as well as chicken pox. Second, it can treat acne (which is why a lot of cleansers and face masks contain tea tree oil), dry cuticles, insect bites, sores, and even sunburn. And lastly, tea tree is also soothing for flaking skin and can eliminate dandruff.

At this point, we should all be surrendering to the powers of tea tree.

It’s a bit overwhelming reading all about the tea tree oil’s healing powers, don’t you think? Thankfully, there are less confusing, all-around tea tree products, like the Skin Defense Balm from Zen Nutrients that you can use on your face, skin, and hair!

I say, it would be a sin not to include tea tree in your skin care regimen from now on.
