it's my understanding that there are several different grades of
EOs. ''cosmetic'' which is sold alot for aromatherapy and
a ''pharmaceutical'' thats best for treating injury. am wondering
if maybe yours hasnt been mixed with a carrier oil.
i just picked up some tea tree oil today that says ''steam
distillation'' and ''minimum of 36%Terpinen-4-ol''. i hope to get
the time this weekend to test it. i will post when i have. the last
little bit i had was years and years old and i saw no difference with
it at all.
theres also the matter of where the tea tree was grown too....some
say tea tree from vietnam is better or more potent than that from
australia......
