#Healthwire: Tea tree oil.

When it comes to skin problems, don’t forget to use tea tree oil. This essential oil is quite effective in curing skin disorders because of its antiviral as well as antiseptic properties. Applying diluted tea tree oil on the skin can solve oily skin problems and it can also help kill off the warts growing on your skin. Using undiluted tea tree oil is not recommended as it is quite strong but mixing it with carrier oil like almond or olive oil can be rewarding especially when it comes to removing warts.
