Some of the products containing Ti Tree (tea tree) essential oils are good antifungals. use of Ti Tree directly on the skin can be effective.. Note.. Only Ti Tree and Lavender Essential oils can be used "Neat" on the skin. All other Essential oils should be used with a carrier to dilute them. — Graham Sorenson The Guide to Aromatherapy and other goodies can be found at:- http://www.fragrant.demon.co.uk The Non-Commercial web site.

Topical application of equal amounts of Myrrh and Lavender Oils can effectively remove fungus fronm the skin. Lavender oil (NOT LAVINDIN) is an effective anti-fungal and Myrrh (the same as in the Bible) along with Lavender is anti-infectious. Be sure you use 1st grade oils. Many oils are 2nd or 3rd grade and will not be as effective.
