According to Well and Good, there are five great ways to use tea tree oil that you might’ve missed over the years. The biggest one is when it comes to helping clean your workout clothes, which let’s face it are a nightmare to get fresh and clean — especially if you are a yoga or cycling guru.
The publication revealed that this oil has both antimicorbial and antifungal properties which means the oil can get rid of your gym clothes gross smell, which always seems to linger.
When it comes to cleaning sportswear items, tea tree oil has the "incredible ability to freshen" sweaty clothes, Christine Allmer of natural beauty brand, Desert Essence told Well and Good.
