Tea Tree Oil Remedies
Tea Tree Oil is very effective for treating common skin irritations. You can also purchase products which combine Tea Tree Oil with other herbs that are effective in relieving common skin irritations. We like Native Remedies Pure Heal Gel. Pure Heal Gel would be a great addition to a your first aid kit.
Pure-Heal Gel is a 100% safe and natural topical herbal gel that helps to support and soothe the skin after minor mishaps and is good for treating insect bites.
Pure-Heal Gel contains a carefully selected combination of well-known and respected traditional herbal remedies for supporting and soothing the skin. The soothing aloe gel base and subtle lavender aroma also provide an immediate comforting effect.
Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) is a well-known herb which has been traditionally used for centuries by Aboriginal Australians. The skin supporting qualities of Tea Tree are enhanced by its ability to penetrate the skin.
Lavandula Officinalis (Lavender)not only imparts a beautiful, soothing fragrance, but will also support healthy circulation to the skin thereby maintaining skin health. In addition, the aromatherapy properties of Lavender will also help to comfort and soothe the individual.
Centella Asiatica (Gotu Kola) has been used as a medicinal herb for thousands of years in Ayurvedic, Chinese and Indonesian traditions. Legend has it that an ancient Chinese herbalist lived for more than 200 years as a result of using the herb, and this has led to Gotu Kola being called one of the “miracle elixirs of life”! Gotu Kola contains compounds called triterpenoids which have an excellent reputation in supporting skin health, increasing the concentration of anti-oxidants and maintaining healthy blood supply to the affected area.
Aloe Ferox (Aloe) has been traditionally used on the skin since ancient times. The Egyptians were using Aloe as early as 1500BC. Aloe contains a number of active compounds that have an excellent effect on skin health. It is not surprising that Aloe has a history of being a common household remedy and is found in many commercial skin care preparations!
