Nelsons Tea Tree Antiseptic

Nelsons Tea Tree Natural First Aid Antiseptic

'Magic Cream' has always been high on my first aid kit list, I like cream that is white as it looks clean from the time you squeeze it out of the tube to when you are carefully rubbing it into the 'poorly'.

Nelsons Tea Tree Cream has antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, anti-fungal and anti-bacterial properties so can be used in a variety of different ways. The cream can be applied to cuts, bruises, bites, blemishes, acne, scabies, chicken pox as well as other skin disorders.

All natural, this homeopathic Nelsons Tea Tree Cream is suitable for all the family. Nelsons Tea Tree cream is a soothing skin cream prepared using the finest, purest tea tree oil from Australia. Tea tree oil has many uses but is best known for its excellent antiseptic properties.



Nelsons Tea Tree Cream is a nice cream, however the very strong smell of tea tree is a little off putting.  I found that a little went a long way ... not because its very economical but because it doesn't really sink in very quickly so spreads out over the skin.  I put a tiny blob on the back of my hand and rubbed it in, 10 minutes later and I still have white streaks of cream on my skin. 

The area where I rubbed the cream is very very soft and supple, when I applied the cream it felt cool and nice, which is great.  It is a nice cream just takes a bit of getting used too.

Nelsons Tea Tree cream is priced at £4.55 for 30g and £5.90 for 50g, it is available from Holland and Barrett, Boots, selected Lloyds pharmacies, the pharmacy section of Sainsburys, Morrisons and Asda and all good independent health food and pharmacy stores.
