Veronica, a small correction, some EO's can be applied directly to skin. Such as lavender and tea tree. Although most EO's need or are better with a carrier oil such as the ones you listed. There are also a few more but I cannot recall at the moment.
Overall, tea tree is a great oil, it has many great properties even though at one time it was frowned upon. Lavender is also a fantastic oil due to its calming properties as well.
A great way to keep them on hand for smelling is a small vile or bottle that seals completely.
Best of luck if you try infusing these into a topical application, let us know how it works! I'd love to give it a try since I have so many on hand. (:
