Aura Cacia Organic Peppermint Oil .33 fl. oz.

Aura Cacia Organic Peppermint Essential Oil Peppermint oil has a very potent fresh, minty aroma that produces a cooling and refreshing sensation. Botanical Name: Mentha x piperita Organic: QAI Certified Organic essential oil Common Name: Peppermint essential oil Form: Essential Oil organic Plant profile: Peppermint essential oil is a tall vigorous mint with a very invasive habit – ask any gardeners! Peppermint spreads rapidly through tough root systems, and will displace other more tender herbs in a plot unless it is contained in some way. The square, erect stems support deep – green aromatic leaves and, if let untrimmed, the plant will produce tall heads of tiny, white flowers. Peppermint essential oil comes mainly from the USA, and is used, in particular, to flavor toothpaste and chewing gum. Safety information: If your skin is sensitive, used half the stated drops of peppermint in any blend due to the menthol content in the peppermint essential oil, which can act as an irritant.
