Tea Tree Organic essential Oil - Australia

At Bioflore, we clearly choose to provide you with the origin of our essential oils. This one comes from Australia and we appreciate it for its finesse. It is different from the Tea tree oil from Africa, although its properties are the same.

This year the Australian Tea Tree will remain more expensive than the African one due to bad weather conditions.

• Non-dermocaustic, it is gentle on the skin and mucous membranes and is one of the only oils that can be applied pure; in the case of regular use, it is preferable to dilute systematically. However, it should be checked that this essential oil is sensitive to oxidation; oxidised, it becomes irritating to the skin.
