100% Essential Oil - Peppermint with its effects on the digestive, respiratory and nervous system, as well as its characteristic aroma, is considered to be an indispensable part of every first aid kit. The main ingredient is menthol, a strong smelling compound which itself causes rapid physical response when inhaled or applied to the skin. It creates a feeling of coolness which the body counteracts by increased blood flow in the area of application, producing a warming effect. Menthol is therefore often found in sports creams and cough drops.

It seems that peppermint oil has contradicting cooling and warming effects.
PERSONALITY
Peppermint acts on the ego, diminishing unnecessary pride. It helps overcome feelings of inferiority. While peppermint increases concentration, it works at a different level to facilitate the absorption of new ideas. It increases our receptive capacity at a mental and spiritual level and is beneficial for those who need inspiration and understanding.
SAFETY
Non toxic, non irritating. Always first perform a patch test to ensure there is no allergic reaction or sensitivity. Never apply undiluted to the skin. Direct or indirect eye contact will cause irritation.
If you are pregnant, consult your doctor before use. Peppermint oil should not be used on children under 2 years of age.
