Natural 100% Peppermint Essential Oil 10ml

The invigorating and fresh mint aroma of the peppermint essential oil works to stimulates the mind and clear the sinuses. Use a drop of it with lemon in water for a healthy, refreshing mouth rinse. Rub one drop of the oil on the temples, forehead, over the sinuses (careful to avoid contact with your eyes), and on the back of the neck to relieve head pressure. Mix it with any carrier oil before applying on hair and skin. Massage gently. Diffuse to get energised and increase alertness.

For clear skin, add 4-5 drops of peppermint oil in two tablespoons of grated cucumber and two tablespoons of green clay. Whisk the ingredients and apply the paste as a face mask. Let it dry and wash with lukewarm water. Repeat this twice or thrice a week.

Peppermint essential oil is also an effective treatment for hair loss, the cold and tingling feeling of peppermint oil increases blood circulation in the scalp and this can help promote hair growth. Mix 2 drops of peppermint essential oil with any carrier oil including mustard oil, coconut and jojoba and massage it into your scalp. Leave the treatment on for 15 to 20 minutes and then wash your hair with shampoo.

You can also put peppermint oil straight into your shampoo and conditioner bottles. Make sure not to add too much. About five drops per ounce of shampoo or conditioner is recommended.

Note:

Essential Oils should always be mixed with a carrier oil like coconut oil, jojoba oil, sweet almond oil or olive oil. Do not put direct on skin to avoid irritation. Peppermint Oil or any other essential oil should be used in limited quantities and is not meant for ingestion.
