Peppermint Essential Oil by Majestic Pure Cosmeceuticals


I am absolutely clueless when it comes to using essential oils but I've heard so many positive uses for them and heard folks rave about how beneficial they are that I felt I simply had to try them out. So when presented with the opportunity to review the Majestic Pure Cosmeceuticals Peppermint Oil, I was quite delighted.

I don't have a diffuser so I couldn't utilize that dispensing method. But I did try several things.....
  • I dabbed a bit onto my temples (suppose to help with headaches). I found this a bit heavy handed (or perhaps I was a bit heavy handed). It didn't cause my skin to break out or become irritated, so perhaps this will be an option when the next major headache hits.
  • I put some into my bath on a couple of occasions along with some rosehip oil. Nice aroma and hopefully helpful.
  • I put a few drops into a small Corning Ware pot filled with water. I slowly simmered this until the water all simmered out. Very nice to breathe this in but don't want to be right next to it in the kitchen.
  • I had a bit of a stuffy nose the other morning and so while I was dressing and getting myself ready for work, I filled the bath wash basin with very hot water and added a few drops of the peppermint oil into it. Closed the bathroom door and - wow! What a nice head-opener. I think this is a winner when you have a stuffy nose or head cold. 
I still don't know much about essential oils, but I do see there are uses for them. I had hoped this peppermint oil could be used in tea, but sadly the label indicated this was not for ingestion - only external use.
