Tea tree oil is good for many things. But it’s a true winner when it comes to DIY beauty! It’s helpful for getting rid of humongous zits, dandruff, itchy skin, eczema, and more! One of the most popular ingredients in shampoos these days is tea tree oil.
I’ve personally used tea tree oil based shampoos and they worked great at solving hair and scalp issues. But the one problem with them? They contain a whole host of other unnecessary ingredients that are actually harmful to use. These ingredients include parabens, artificial fragrances, SLS (sodium lauryl sulfate) and other chemicals.
