What is Peppermint
Essential Oil and what is it used for?
With so many of us leading busy lives, it’s easy to get
caught up in the day to day and lose track of what we really need for the
health of our minds and bodies.
In the mind, this can show up as stress, lack of focus, or a
low mood. In the body, this can manifest as poor digestion, headaches sore
muscles,hair loss etc
This is where it can be valuable to look to time-honoured
herbs, such as peppermint, for a little extra support.
Peppermint has a long history of use in cooking, as well as
western herbal medicine and aromatherapy.
This menthol-rich herb is popular for its ability to lift
the spirits, bring an aroma of freshness to meals, sweets and personal care
products.

Health Benefits
of Peppermint Essential Oil
Peppermint oil helps to relieve tension and relax the
muscles, which in turn can help in reducing the symptoms associated with
headaches and migraines.
The essential oil is known to promote deep relaxation in the
body and the mind, helping to reduce stress and anxiety.
Because of its anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties, it
can be used to disinfect and clean skin wounds, and can also be used to
disinfect surfaces.
While peppermint tea is widely used as a remedy for an upset
stomach, there are also benefits to
inhaling Peppermint Essential Oil. Inhaling it or diffusing it can help relieve
symptoms of nausea, indigestion, and even Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).
Skin Benefits of
Peppermint Essential Oil
Because of its anti-inflammatory benefits, Peppermint
essential oil helps to reduce redness, irritation and inflammation of the skin.
Applying a small amount of peppermint oil to the scalp and
hair follicles helps to increase blood circulation and promote hair growth.
While humans find the smell of Peppermint essential oil
refreshing, insects despise it.
Dab a few drops of Peppermint oil on the skin (diluted with
another oil) and the pests will be gone in no time.
Safety Tips for
Using Mekis Peppermint Essential Oil
Please keep in mind that our essential oils are highly
concentrated and precautions need to be taken when using them. Here are some
safety considerations to keep in mind when using Mekis Peppermint Essential
Oil:
·
One of the most important things to remember
when using peppermint oil, is that less is more. Start with 1-2 drops (diluted
properly in a carrier oil, such as Almond, Jojoba or Olive), and add more later
if needed.
·
Our Peppermint essential oil is for external use only, meaning you should not ingest it. At times, the
essential oil is confused with the peppermint plant leaves, which are edible.
Make sure to be clear on the difference.
·
As with any essential oil or new skin care
ingredient, we always recommend testing on a small patch of skin before
applying to a larger area. Because essential oils are highly concentrated, some
people may experience a negative or allergic reaction to them. It’s important
to dilute essential oils properly in
a carrier oil before applying to the skin.
Who Can Use Mekis
Peppermint Essential Oil?
Almost anyone can use our Peppermint essential oil; however,
it is not recommended to use on infants
as negative side effects may occur if they inhale the menthol in the oil.
Caution
Please keep in mind that our essential oils are highly
concentrated,you must only use with a carrier oil like jojoba,olive,sweet
almond,coconut etc
