Desert Essence100% Australian Tea Tree Oil - 2 fl oz

So first and foremost, ill admit im an ER nurse. I am around sick people constantly, and started using tea tree about 5 years ago. I have 12 years RN exp, FEMA training, and 4 yrs CNA exp. Also BLS/PALs/ACLS/stroke cert/NRP/et el.Disclaimer- these are anecdotal results. But, Hear me out:I am currently around covid patients, every day. I have yet to have an episode of such since the pandemic. I also test twice a week. And am vax w/o booster.When I have a sore throat, i swab with t.tree. Just enough to get a q-tip wet. Wring it out on the glass bottle so its not dripping, and twice on the back of the throat like a strep swab from your MD.BE PREPARED to have a visceral reaction the first time you do this! I almost threw up, definitely dry heave worthy.I also swab both my nares (nostrils), then throat, and now jump in the shower to ‘get right’. Have the shower ready to hop in; Phlegm out n then drink something warm, & go to sleep. (This is if feeling sick regime, btw) wake up like a million bucks, or at least not ill.Also helps if sick with post-nasal drip, sinus congestion, but please do get checked by an MD for treatment should signs/symptoms persist or worsen. You will sneeze also- be prepared (sneeze & shower remember/or both)I swab my ears/wet side ; then dry them with this if i have an ear ache or sinus thing also.Tea tree is edible, NOT eucalyptus oil!!! Eucalyptus oil is TOXIC, even in small quantities if eaten. Eucalyptus is topical only or diffuser.I will say, ONLY SWAB ONCE A DAY! Anymore than that and tea tree can give u cramping diarrhea. (Ask me how i know)Never use in eyes, or inside sex organs/glands.Topically, tea tree will also stop bug-bite-itch, reduce inflammation, has anti-bacterial/anti-viral properties, and smells lovely in diffusers for young ones to get the same benefits as above. (Avoid swabbing less than 2 yr olds as it burns/stings) and it can be diluted should full strength be too much. : 1 part tree/ 2 parts h2O light, 1:1 medium, or full strength. And can be used in spray bottles like ‘fabreez’ odor eliminator sprays.Remember: all orfices lead to each other in your head. Ears/sinus/nose/throat. So- adjustHave read/aware that teatree works on warts, fungal toes, fungal odors, jock itch (not inside urethra), athlete’s foot, cuts/scraps, and acne. Also rub on hair/neck to keep bugs away (like after-shave/mousse). Herpes/cold sores also- but for me only if i feel the “tingle” aura on my lip will rubbing oil on my lip like chap stick help- with full outbreak/ abreva works better. Its a chemistry thing- so go with your body! Can also help body odor with appliances to arm pits prior to sleep (not in lieu of deodorant), eczema will lessen, and it can help with thrush (mouth) -however other things do taste better for that.Please use best judgment, and should you (the reader) be a person that judgment not be a trait you possess, ask a medical person/ family/ friend/ etc; see a doctor! Not for open sores or gaping wounds!As for this product, 2oz at $16 for the best brand desert essence is a good deal. My local market sells 1 oz at $12. Usually 1oz lasts me about a year. As long as you keep it bottled, stored in dark cabinet, and clean (no double dips with dirty q-tips), it will last quite well. Noticed the seller sells both newer logo and older logo brand. The one i got was fresh tasting and newer. Time does age the taste to more bitter. Older is better for topical in my opinion- but i dont exactly know if it ‘goes bad’ per say.As for toxic CA disclaimer- dont eat the label that the ink is printed on, or the plastic/resin top and you should be just fine!Enjoy!(I’ll waive the $50 for my co-pay)Disclaimer- my review is not intended to skip a medical doctor’s evaluation. Please seek medical advice, should you have a medical condition or emergency.

Me encanta. Es 100% aceite esencial y la cantidad es perfecta por el precio. Muy efectivo para aplicar en espillinitas, también de puede diluir en agua y aplicar en spray a los niños Y Jóvenes para protegerlos de contagio piojos 🙄🙄🙄 que es una cochinada y que todos todos deberían tomar cartas en el asunto para evitar epidemias.Su olor es fuerte como a hierbas 🌿 (natural) y después de media hora Aplicado ya no huele, por lo que lo aplicación con anticipación antes de salir y listo!

Bon! Bon! très bon produit: piqûre d'insectes, problèmes de peau, maux de tête... C'est un produit à avoir chez soi.

good oil. smells nice. I like to drip 1-2 drops of oil onto a cotton pad and leave it near the bed (especially when I’m sick) - restful and deep sleep 👍🏼

Worth buying,
