About Tea Tree Oil:
Tea Tree oil is one of the most versatile essential oils out there. The substances found in tea tree oil serve a multitude of purposes. Which is why some consider tea tree oil a miracle ingredient. Furthermore, this oil is best known as a very powerful immune stimulant. It claims to fight all three categories of organisms (bacteria, fungi, and viruses). Which is why I love to use it to help to clean and kill germs around the house.

Learn About the Brand & Product
I was able to get a large bottle myself of this 100% pure tea tree oil and have been a DIY guru to say the least. I did notice one thing on the bottle, that there is a bottled date on it. Because there are no chemicals added to this, you need to know the shelf life.

The company, Apothecary Extracts was founded in 2013 because, as consumers, they were tired of not knowing what was in the oils. There are so many vendors that dilute their essential oils, or use extraction processes which contaminate the final product. Apothecary Extracts is committed to selling only the purest essential oils, and they have the tests to prove it.
