Lifehack #2: Miracle Product!

It's official. Tea Tree Oil may just be the product of Gods.

I've raved about this product before in my post 'The Spot Remedy You (probably) Haven't Tried!' here but Tea Tree Oil has so many more uses than skincare alone.

Many retailers have a whole range of Tea Tree skincare products but here I want to rave about some of the lesser known uses for it so here we go!
