Why you need antibacterial properties in your routine

Tea Tree Oil is an ingredient that has been used for centuries due to its medicinal benefits. The tea tree oil comes from the leaves of Melaleuca alternifolia, a small tree native to Queensland and New South Wales, Australia. We love Australian ingredients!

The antiseptic properties of tea tree oil have been thoroughly tested by scientists and the results have been shown to powerfully and positively impact skin’s health. We’ve compiled a list to show you why you need antibacterial properties in your routine.

Here are the powerful benefits of tea tree:

Prevents Acne and Clears Blemishes

Blemishes can be provoked by a number of factors- a reaction to toxic products, diet, stress, hormones, genetics or the environment. But, the blemish itself stems from one thing - an overproduction of sebum. Too much sebum leads to a blocked sebaceous gland. Put simply, acne and pimples occur when pores are blocked. To treat blemishes, many will reach for harsh, chemical-based products targeted at blemish-prone skin. While this may work to dry out excess oil and blemish causing bacteria, these products can potentially dry out the skin and compromise the skin’s natural healthy function. Rather than choosing a synthetic blemish treatment, consider a natural antibacterial solution. Tea tree oil is gentle, yet effectively clears the pores and rids them of congestion.

Promotes Glowing Skin

The antibacterial properties in tea tree oil calm redness, swelling and inflammation. Once the pores have been decongested, your skin is left clear and glowing. Tea tree oil used everyday keeps clogged pores at bay. Consistent use results in radiant skin.

Treats Eczema and Psoriasis

Tea tree oil reduces itching and irritation for individuals with problematic skin conditions including eczema and psoriasis. It has also been shown through scientific research that Tea Tree Oil is more effective than zinc oxide and other chemical treatment creams. Also, anecdotal evidence suggests that tea tree oil is useful in treating symptoms of psoriasis including infection and inflammation, all while boosting immunity.
