Peppermint Oil | Sharp, Cold & Wide Awake

Cold, sharp and mentholated. It has a physical presence in the air that no other oil here matches.

What It Is
Mentha piperita, steam distilled from the leaf. A natural hybrid of watermint and spearmint, and its menthol content is what makes it feel cold on skin and in the nose.

In the Craft
Peppermint is worked for alertness, for clearing and for speeding a working up. In hoodoo it turns up in money and luck mixes, and in European folk practice mint was planted at doorways and strewn to keep a house lively and clean.

How to Work With It

• Diffuse when you need to be awake and sharp.
• Anoint a candle for a working you want to move quickly.
• Add a drop to a floor wash for a bright, clean sweep.
• Dilute well before any skin contact. It is strong.

Blends well with: lemon, rosemary, eucalyptus, lavender, spearmint

Certified Organic. USDA Certified Organic, which means no GMOs, no synthetic fertilizers, and soil free of prohibited substances. Buying certified organic also supports the biodiversity of the land it was grown on.

Safety. For external use only. Essential oils are highly concentrated: always dilute in a carrier oil before skin contact and patch test first. Never take internally. Keep away from children and pets. Ask a qualified practitioner before use if you are pregnant, nursing, or managing a medical condition. Keep peppermint away from children under six and from anyone with a seizure history. Menthol should not go near a small child's face. Use a low dilution on skin.
