| Peppermint oil is a well-deserved favourite, invigorating to the body and mind and helpful to clear congestion and unwanted heat.

 FOR THE SKINPeppermint 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. |
|
 FOR THE BODYPeppermint’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. |
|
 FOR THE MINDPeppermint clears the head, refreshing during times of mental fatigue and encouraging concentration and clear thinking. Great in study or work blends, and instils a cool, calm and collected atmosphere in times of anger, nervous tension and heated emotions. |
|
 FOR THE HOMEPeppermint oil is a favourite in household cleaning blends for its antiseptic qualities and fresh clean scent. Also a great oil to diffuse to clear and refresh the energy in a room. |

Bought some of this peppermint oil to freshen up my homemade vinegar cleaning spray. It smells amazing and a little goes a long way! Love it.
Excellent oils and great delivery
I add this to the shampoo base that Pure Nature sell. It's makes for a delicious smelling and refreshing shampoo. I also like to mix and match it with some other fragrances for variety.
Everyone a major tip! Put the tiniest drop on your mask and the menthol in the peppermint essential oil will make it feel like youre breathing in fresh air! Amazing for summer!!
I'm impressed with the quality of pure nature's oils... I was very happy to see the batch number they print in each of the labels of their oils, it gives me confidence that they are a serious company and guarantee the quality of their products. No doubt they will be my primary source of oils from now on.
