Naissance Peppermint Essential Oil

There are two types of Peppermint oil that have that instantly recognisable scent of mint, Peppermint Arvensis and Peppermint Piperita. Arvensis, also known as mentha arvensis, corn mint or wild mint, has a much higher menthol content than Piperita. Extremely popular in aromatherapy, this powerful, refreshing oil is frequently used for its stimulating and awakening aroma. Often used to boost concentration and awaken the senses. Peppermint Arvensis is super versatile and it blends well with many other essential oils.

How to Use:

Dilution: Peppermint Arvensis has an extremely powerful and penetrating scent so just bear this in mind when diffusing or making your own products. Dilute at a percentage of 1% of the finished blend, 1ml of essential oil (approx. 20 drops) to 100ml of carrier oil. Do not use undiluted on the skin. You can use up to 3% dilution for use on your body or in the bath.

Aromatherapy: Add a few drops of Peppermint Arvensis to your diffuser or burner and experience the energising and reviving scent of Peppermint Arvensis for yourself.

Massage: Make your own reviving massage oil blend by combining Peppermint Arvensis with a carrier oil such as Apricot Kernel and Rosemary, Grapefruit, and Eucalyptus and wake up those aching muscles.

Skincare: Ideal for use in your homemade beauty formulations particularly lip balms, body scrubs, cleansers, toners, body oils and hair treatments.

Haircare: Add a few drops to your shampoo or conditioner for an icy blast in the shower. Mentha arvensis Read the enclosed leaflet before use. Keep out of reach of children. External use only. Avoid contact with eyes.
