COMMENTS

• For improving skin concerns such as breakouts, tea tree oil concentrations of
2.5% to 10% are recommended. However, the amount present in most skincare
products is usually less than 1% as higher amounts impart a strong scent that
many people find intolerable not to mention these higher amounts increase tea
tree oil’s potential to sensitize & redden skin

• Careful use & storage of the product is necessary as tea tree oil’s potential to
sensitize skin increases when it is exposed to air beacuse the oxidation makes the
volatile components more potent.
