Tea Tree Oil is a must have for any medicene cabinet. It is an anit-bacterial, anti-viral, and anti-fungal product. As a general rule, you should mix it with a good quality carrier oil before use, such as jojoba, grapeseed, or even sunflower. It will sting if applying to open cuts and scrapes. Works on athletes feet, jock itch, etc....( I know, not a plaesant topic) If you can find a good natural soap with tea tree, it works well on acne! For nail fungal infections, use straight tea trea oil on a q-tip, rub all over the top and as far under that nail as possible, don't wash, just let is soak in. Do this once or twice a day for a awhile, depending on how bad the infection is, I also recommend a good nail conditioner during this time to keep nails from drying out!!!
