Details
Mentha Piperita Oil is the volatile oil obtained from the whole plant of the Peppermint plant. Provides relief from head colds and bronchitis in steam-inhalation. Pungent cool Menthol odour works well in Foot Lotions to give a cooling effect and in Soaps to give that sharp minty character. Avoid during pregnancy. Did you know that Peppermint is actually a hybrid of Mentha spicata (Spearmint) and Mentha aquatica (Water Mint) plants.
