The amazing qualities of Pure Organic Tea Tree Essential Oil

Winter can wreak havoc on your skin, and it can feel like there’s no escape: Cold, blustery conditions outside leave your skin red and raw, while indoor heat zaps moisture from the air and from your skin.

Tips for Healthy Winter Skin
1. Tea tree oil is an essential oil that can be used for several purposes, including keeping skin, hair and nails healthy. pop 6 drops in 100ml cool water in your diffuser to help boost moisture.

2. Lower Water Temperatures for Showering. A 5- to 10-minute warm shower (or bath) is less likely to worsen dry skin than a hot one.

3. Fragrance-Free Cleansers. They contain fewer drying ingredients. Opt for 'sensitive skin on the label" or why not try a new night time regime by massaging the body and face with sweet almond oil carrier and a few drops of our tea tree essential oil, to help the skin feel nourished overnight.

4. Stay Hydrated. sip warm water every 20 minutes to help lubricate the skin.

5. Keep up the good work on eating well for Veganuary, your skin will thank you for it!
