Peppermint Oil

Peppermint (Mentha Piperita) oil is naturally found in Europe and North America and it’s a cross (hybrid) between watermint and spearmint. It’s a very potent oil and a little goes a long way. A pleasant minty aroma and taste have a cooling effect on the skin. It’s a natural analgesic (pain killer) and is used in headache balms and healing balms.  It combats both bacteria and yeast and is therefore considered antibacterial and anti-fungal. Cleansing and antiseptic make it a great face wash or acne product.

It increases scalp circulation which can improve both hair growth and hair loss. The tingling fresh oil helps to control oil production and it helps control an itchy scalp. It neutralizes bacteria and bad odor so popular in foot care.
