Peppermint oil is a well-deserved favourite, invigorating to the body and mind and helpful to clear congestion and unwanted heat. Please note, during colder months the menthol in this oil may crystalise causing the oil to solidify, stand the bottle in hot water to liquefy before use. Nature/Essence – Invigorating & Clearing |
|
![]() Peppermint oil helps clear congestion and heat, and has local anaesthetic and antiseptic properties – great for itching, redness and irritation of the skin or scalp. Use sparingly and well diluted as it can be a skin irritant itself, and has a profound cooling effect. |

![]() Peppermint’s cooling and relieving action is the best where heat and congestion are predominant. Great in foot rubs or foot baths, and massage blends for sore muscles and joints after sports, exertion or from standing all day. Also helpful for neuralgia and bruising. Its clearing aroma is great as an inhalation for nasal, sinus or chest congestion to open up the airways. Apply to temples or use as an inhalation for headaches and toxic congestion from overindulgence or digestive problems. The fresh aroma of Peppermint is ideal to help ease travel sickness and nausea. A few drops on a tissue can be discreetly inhaled for quick relief during times of need. Applied to the abdomen it is wonderful to soothe an upset digestive system including bloating, spasms, flatulence, colic, and to stimulate liver and gallbladder function. |

I use this a lot in the kitchen. Adding this to some water and spraying in my kitchen tops and pantry to give a nice smell and prevent insects or ants from coming.
Lovely fragrance that blends well with lemongrass and herbal scents. Worked well in Cp soap
I’ve been buying peppermint from the grocery store for my diffuser. I’m happy I found this in this site. The price is the same for the 25ml that I usually buy. I’m glad for this purchase. I will definitely buy some more.
Lovely scent and works well in cp soap
