Fresh!
Love the peppermint, use it to relieve a headache, inhale it to open up all the air passages, and add it to lavender for a nice diffuser experience.

Peppermint Oil
I used this oil to blend with Ravintsara and Lavender as an inhaler for air travel. It was wonderful. One drop was perfect.!

Great pick me up and breath freshener!
I ingest a drop of peppermint oil several times a day for a quick pick me up and breath freshener. I keep one in my pocketbook and one in my office!

I love peppermint in the diffuser with lime, in my black bean brownies, in my chocolate shake, and around my navel for tummy issues. It’s one of my favorite!
