It may sound weird but if you want to get rid of a wart, apply some sour cream on it and let a dog lick it off and then forget about it. The next time you remember about it will be gone. I swear it works!IP: Logged |

tea tree is one oil you can be pretty loose about the brand name. personally i like the essential oils made by :prima fleur oshadi young living* but because the tea tree grows like a weed almost everywhere it is easily procured and distilled, i tend to buy auracacia for medicinal purposes because you can get more for your buck and it's perfectly fine. also dr bronner's tea tree flavoured pure castile soap is wonderful for general washing purposes to PREVENT warts. i use it also for athlete's foot for kids, they seem to like it and it works very well and quickly if applied night and morning and covered with clean socks to prevent too quick evaporation. *these may be the best essential oils for therapeutic purposes - tho VERY expensive. abs would know good brands as well, with her perfumery...
