Tea tree oil is one common example of essential oils that act as powerful disinfectants. Thus, you can add a few drops of the essential oil to a distilled water.

Then, carefully mix the oil with the water to ensure that its essential properties are thoroughly incorporated. A few drops of the oil can go a long way on this one, which works just as effective as most disinfectant products you buy off the market, if not better.

First Aid For Cuts, Wounds, or Bruises

Minor cuts or wounds, scrapes, rashes, and skin irritations are quite common in the household, especially for those who have young kids at home. Essential oils offer the best relief for these conditions and yet this natural remedy is really effective.

You can add a few drops of your chosen essential into your bath water. Another method of application is to dilute the essential oil using a carrier oil and then applying it topically onto your skin. Tea tree oil is one of the best essential oils to use for this condition to enable the affected areas to rapidly heal.

Aside from minor cuts and wounds, common illnesses also plague every household. These include common cold, cough, headaches, fever, among other conditions. Therefore, it is wise to stock up on basic essential oils that are versatile enough to cure any of the above mentioned conditions.

At its core, using essential oils can help provide relief and relaxation from the ailments. Meanwhile, the therapeutic properties of the oil act on the affected organs of the body for an effective healing.
