Peppermint Essential Oil (Supreme) 100% Pure - 2 Oz Review
Peppermint Essential Oil (Supreme) 100% Pure - 2 Oz Feature
- Mentha arvensis
- Colorless to pale yellow liquid.
- Strength of Aroma: Strong
There are several species of the mentha arvensis perennial herb that can grow to 3 feet in height,
spreading due to their underground 'runners'. Peppermint plant has hairy leaves with serrated edges
and purple spiked flowers. Peppermint Japanese is known for its high menthol content. It is so high in
fact that menthol crystals sometimes form right on the leaves.
Color: Colorless to pale yellow liquid.
Common Uses: Organic Peppermint Essential Oil has long been credited as being useful in combating
stomach ailments. It is also viewed as an antispasmodic and antimicrobial agent. Of course, most
people will associate it with being a flavoring or scenting agent in foods, beverages, skin and hair
care products (where it has a cooling effect by constricting capillaries and helping with bruises and
sore joints), as well as soaps and candles.
It should also be noted that the active ingredient Menthol may crystallize in temperatures below 20
degree Celsius. The more menthol present, the greater it's propensity for altering states. We would
recommend placing the bottle in a very hot water bath, changing the water frequently and once it is
back to the liquid state be sure to shake before use.
Consistency: Thin
Note: Top
Strength of Aroma: Strong
