Add to your natural medicine cabinet for quick and easy, all-natural relief from colds, flus, sore muscles, pain, and skin conditions.

For Headaches, Congestion, Nausea, Aches, & Pains
If you suffer from frequent headaches, nausea, aches, pains, or congestion you might want to use this essential oil only during those times, making it your special go-to for relief. For congestion and headaches, you can simply put a few drops of Peppermint Oil on a tissue and inhale as needed. Another quick and easy use is to add 10-20 drops (more or less, as desired) to a warm bath and let the steam and refreshing Peppermint scent ease your sinus congestion and loosen your breathing airways. The feel of Peppermint Essential Oil on the skin is cooling and slightly numbing, so a Peppermint bath can also help soothe your sore joints and muscles. Or, prepare in advance by creating the massage oil (recipe below) and have it ready for use at a moment's notice.
- Put a Few Drops on a Tissue & Inhale
- Add to a Steamy Bath to Ease Breating & Soothe Sore Joints & Muscles
- Prepare Massage Oils Ready for Use
For Skin & Body
For topical application and use on the body, be sure to dilute the essential oil in a carrier oil such as sweet almond, grapeseed, jojoba, or olive oil before using. Use about 1-3 drops per ounce of carrier oil. Then use for general relaxing massages or rub into sore, overworked muscles. You can also add 10-20 drops to your bath. Use more or less drops as desired. Peppermint Essential Oil is analgesic and cooling so it can help decrease soreness and relax muscles. For this purpose, it can be added to unscented lotions and liquid soaps. Since Peppermint Essential Oil is antimicrobial, it makes a great freshener for the feet and armpits (recipe for Peppermint spray below). Be careful not to use on broken skin and always dilute.
- Mix in Carrier Oil for Sore Joint & Muscle Rubs
- Soothe Sore Muscles with a Bath Soak
- Apply to Skin with Carrier Oil, Unscented Lotion, or Liquid Soap to Relax Muscles
Peppermint Spray for Room, Body, & Fabrics
For an easy, uplifting, and all-natural air, body, or fabric freshener, fill a spray bottle with distilled, filtered, or boiled water (to ensure it's contaminant-free). Start by adding just a few drops of Peppermint Essential Oil. Add more drops until it reaches your desired amount of aroma. Shake and spray whenever your air or fabrics need a lift. Mist your hair and body for a quick refresh. It can also be used as a deodorant or foot spray. Spritz on sheets and pillow cases shortly before bedtime to help you breathe easy while you fall asleep.
- Mix with Water in a Spray Bottle
- Spritz Your Body, Room, & Fabrics for a Quick Refresh
- Use as a Natural Deodorant or Foot Spray
- Mist Pillow Cases at Bedtime to Promote Easy Breathing
Environment & Insect Friendly Repellant
You can also use Peppermint Essential Oil as part of a blend to ward away insects. It will not kill the bugs but they do not like to be around the scent and will avoid wherever it's been sprayed. You can spray this mixture on yourself and around your home. Simply spray again if they start coming back.
Insect Repellant Recipe: Fill a small 4 oz. spray bottle halfway with distilled, filtered, or boiled water (to ensure it's contaminant-free). Finish filling bottle with witch hazel, rubbing alcohol, or vodka (yes, vodka!). Then, add about a teaspoon of vegetable glycerin if you want to. It will help keep all the ingredients blended together. Go strong with this mixture by adding 15-30 drops of Peppermint Oil. Make this insect repellant even more effective by adding 15-30 drops of Eucalyptus, Lavender, Lemongrass, Rosemary, and/or Lemon because they all have natural insect repelling qualities too. Certain bugs don't like certain oils. So, if you combine all these at once, you'll have all your bases covered! Mosquitos, ants, lice, and even mice especially dislike Peppermint Oil! If you add vegetable glycerin to this mixture (it's optional), make sure that you spray fabrics with a fine mist and from a distance of about 12 inches to avoiding oily staining.
