Peppermint Pure Essential Oil

SKIN

Peppermint essential oil has a soothing, cooling effect on the skin. It can help to reduce redness and inflammation and calm irritation and itchiness. It is good to use in a facial steam to deeply cleanse and decongest the skin, particularly where acne is present. The cooling property is also very pleasant as a treatment for sunburn.

 

MIND

Peppermint helps to stimulate the mind and improve concentration, mental agility and focus. It is also beneficial for treating mental fatigue, depression, shock and feelings of negativity and insecurity.

Sharp, fresh, minty, herbaceous aroma 

 100% Mentha arvensis leaf oil

Mints are sobering and clear headed herbs, aloof, even.In mythology they are descended from a nymph called Mentha, who had surrendered to Pluto's desires. His jealous wife Persephone (or according to some accounts, her mother Demeter), disgusted and enraged, stomped the poor nymph into the ground and punished her with infertility. 

It has been cultivated since ancient times in Japan and China and evidence of its use was also found in Egypt, in a tomb dating back to 1000 BC. The word Peppermint is derived from the Latin word ‘mente’ meaning ‘thought’, as it is reported that the Romans used Peppermint as a tonic for the brain.
