Benefits and uses of tea tree oil
Tea tree oil is a powerful all-natural ingredient that boasts a range of benefits and uses. It is widely used for the treatment of fungal infections, as a natural antiseptic and sanitiser, as a facial cleanser and toner to help reduce blemishes, in shampoo and conditioner to help control dandruff, and even as an insect repellent. Other popular benefits and uses include:
Natural deodorant
Tea tree oil's natural antibacterial properties can combat underarm odour by working to eliminate the bacteria associated with perspiration. Using 100% pure tea tree oil in combination with select natural ingredients, Thursday Plantation's Tea Tree Deodorant can help control body odour to keep you fresh and dry all day long.
Antiseptic and wound healing
Diluted with a carrier oil, Tea Tree Oil can help prevent infection caused by minor cuts and scrapes by acting as a disinfectant when applied to abrasions. Regular application to wound dressings can further help to reduce inflammation and encourage wound healing, with research suggesting tea tree oil can trigger the white blood cell activity responsible for healing.
Tooth and oral care
Used as a diluted mouthwash and toothpaste, tea tree oil has the potential to aid in the prevention of tooth decay, plaque build-up, and bad breath. Thursday Plantation's Tea Tree Toothpaste is made with 100% pure tea tree oil, with no added SLS, fluoride, parabens or synthetic preservatives used for a natural antibacterial cleanser that can help your teeth stay clean and keep your mouth fresher for longer.

His name was Eric White. It took Eric four years to get a crown lease. When it finally arrived, via the once-a-week mail, on a Thursday in 1976, Thursday Plantation was born.
