Tea Tree Oil
Tea tree oil is often extracted from the leaves of Melaleuca alternifolia plants. People usually apply it to improve symptoms of many skin issues, including eczema. Studies have shown that this oil contains a lot of wound-healing, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory properties. They can help alleviate skin itching, dryness, as well as prevent infections. Keep in mind to dilute the oil with a carrier oil before applying to prevent burns or irritation. Common carrier oils include olive oil or almond oil. You can also purchase a diluted option in many health stores.[7]
