Tea Tree Facts: Tea tree oil has been recognized as a potent antiseptic in Australia anecdotally for much longer than there has been scientific evidence. Recent studies support a role for tea tree oil in skin care and treatment of various ailments. Tea tree oil is a known antifungal agent.

Honey Facts: For at least 2700 years, honey has been used to treat a variety of ailments through topical application, but only recently have the antiseptic and antibacterial properties of honey been chemically explained.
