Tea Tree Oil
This is something I always take with me on holiday. Tea tree oil is good for using externally (only) on the skin, scalp and nails. It helps clear certain bacteria, viruses and fungi. It also helps to clear those small red 'sweat' spots , blocked hair follicles and sweat rash after a few days of use. I also apply it on my arms and legs as an alternative to insect repellant and even if you get a bug bite, tea tree oil will help with the inflammation and itching.
Tea tree oil can be used to treat and disinfect minor cuts. A few years ago, I used tea tree oil effectively on my younger son's smelly feet!!!
