Ingredients:
  • Melaleuca Alternifolia
  • Water

Mix together 2 parts Melaleuca Alternifolia with 1 part water in a small bowl. 

After shaking the bottle well, fill a glass bottle about 1/3 of the way up with calamine lotion.

Add Melalueca-water mixture to the bottle until it contains roughly a 1:1 ratio with the calamine lotion.

Do not mix or shake, and allow the bottle to settle for several hours.

To apply, dip a cotton swab all the way to the bottom of the bottle, dab onto desired area (it will leave a pink mark on the skin), and leave overnight.
