Where to buy Tea-tree oil??

moneysavinmonkey

Hi,

Been using diluted tea tree oil for a while now due to probs with mould in the bathroom and not wanting to upset asthmatic housemate with harsh chemical products.

Works a treat for this as well as deodorising bins/carpets/towels etc.

Does anyone else use tea tree round the house and have any tips and also where do they buy it from?

I usually get larger bottles from Holland and Barrett... anyone have any ideas where to get it more cheaply?

Thanks.

http://www.mantra-aromatherapy.co.uk/ these are very reasonable

I use a mix of vinegar and water and a few drops of tea tree and lemon essential oils for my kitchen surfaces instead of flash - it does a great job.

I buy mine from the same place as you do,Holland and Barrett
The only use I have had from it is to put it on coldsore when I get one. I find they disappear much quicker than when I use creams from the pharmacy. I don't dilute it but apply a small amount on the affected area a few times a day.

I also get mine from Holland and Barratt. Maybe try eBay?

Try Savers, I am sure I have seen tea tree oil there. Boots also sell it, was lucky enough to get a bottle on one of the clearance shelves (The Australian Body Care (brown box) ones) a while back.

How much do you pay...i have used https://www.essentiallyoils.com in the past for oils.

just had a look and 1ltr of tea tree is £26...100ml is £3.60 and than there are all sizes in between

I currently get mine from Superdrug because I use the 10% off voucher I got from the freebies thread!! But it's not in a large size.

Cheapest place I have found for it on the high street is the Body Shop, am sure it would be cheaper online but sometimes you don't want to wait.

HTH;)

I buy a little bottle (10ml) from BodyCare on the High Street and it's £1.89 if that helps :-)

10ml bottle is 99p in Homebargains, they also do 25ml eucalyptus oil for the same price ( good mozzie repellant ) !

I think you do get what you pay for....the cheaper stuff.is often diluted,or mixed with other ingredients....fine for cleaning etc,but if you want pure good quality tea tree oil,you have to pay for it.:D
