Tips
- One pump is enough for facial application; avoid using too much.
- Skin will slowly absorb the oil overnight.
- Can be used all over the body, especially on normally drier spots.
- Tea tree oil is a great spot treatment and does not dry out or aggravate the skin.
- Essential oils like tea tree and frankincense act as carrier oils; do not apply them straight to the face without a carrier.
