Mint Oil (Reduced Menthol)
Inhale deeply and savour the invigorating, chilly fragrance of dementholised Japanese Peppermint which also goes under the name Cornmint or simply Mint. This distinctive Peppermint essential oil variety provides a refreshingly unique experience and offers numerous internal and aromatic advantages. It can be used in the same ways as Peppermint essential oil: aromatically, topically, and internally. Its moderated menthol content makes it safer for use and is still refreshingly cooling when applied topically, which creates a comforting and soothing effect. Consider diluting with a carrier oil for those with sensitive skin. When ingested it can promote a sense of clear airways. When diffused, it creates a fresh, stimulating environment. The aroma of Japanese Peppermint is fresh and crisp. We also have Japanese Peppermint Oil Available with full menthol content upon request.
