The Aborigines discovered that the Eucalyptus tree (Eucalyptus Globulus) stores water in the roots. Ironically, many early settlers died of thirst when water was all around them, stored in these plants.

Eucalyptus Globulus has been used as a vapor bath for asthma and other respiratory ailments and as an antiseptic bath additive. It was also brewed as a tea, used to treat infection in the throat and lungs, and employed as a heart stimulant.

Steam, laced with the oil, has been used to relieve the symptoms of bronchitis, asthma, and croup. Eucalyptus is currently used in expectorants, lozenges, rubs, and liquids to relieve upper respiratory distress.

Eucalyptus Globulus Leaf Extract is considered an active germicide with antiseptic and astringent qualities. It has been used topically to treat abscesses and other skin ailments.

Eucalyptus Globulus Leaf Extract is a light to medium amber liquid with a characteristic odor. It is used in skin toners, deodorants, astringents, masques, and bath care products and is particularly beneficial for oily skin. Because of its antiseptic qualities, it is also useful in mouthwash products.
