tea tree overdose [Was: pure eos on the skin]

[Guest guest]

Hey folks,

I am so sick of tea tree oil in *everything*. I do NOT need to put

tea tree oil on my teeth, between my gums, on my skin and hair, as

well as my lips every day.

 

Some of us criticize chemical preservatives so much, but a bulk of

the problem seems to be simply that there are a select few that are

used in nearly everything. If we replaced them all with, say,

grapefruit seed extract, we probably wouldn't be any better off. Then

we'd just be getting too much GSE.

 

I'm just tired of marketing latching on the silver bullets and

overusing useful things to the point of uselessness.

 

Ok, rant over.
