Peppermint Essential Oil - 15ml

What Makes Mentha Arvensis Special?

Extracted from the Mentha arvensis (Corn mint) plant grown in India, the leaves are carefully steam distilled and dementholized, resulting in an oil with a lower menthol content similar to pure peppermint. This process creates a beautifully balanced oil that's effective yet gentle.

The scent is crisp and subtly sweet compared to Peppermint Essential Oil (Mentha Piperita)—awakening and invigorating the mind while remaining pleasantly refreshing. Behind this delightful fragrance lies powerful natural properties that effectively combat colds, congestion, inflammation, and fatigue.

An extremely versatile oil that assists many aspects of life, Mentha Arvensis Peppermint is one of the most popular essential oils on the planet, used regularly in home healthcare remedies, beauty products, soaps, and candles.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding Consult a healthcare professional before use during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.

Patch Test Always perform a patch test before first use to check for sensitivity.

Cooling Sensation Peppermint creates a cooling sensation on skin—this is normal but ensure proper dilution to avoid irritation.
