Best Oil for Sleeping
I have used Peppermint for almost everything including diffusing it. I decided to put it in my diffuser one night and I went to sleep very quickly and usually it can take almost an hour before I settle down to sleep. Who knew this oil was great for a sound relaxing sleep? Well I do now and it's better then most oils that are made for sleepig.

One suggestion for use!!
Love this. It helps with hot flashes. I add several drops with a carrier oil into a glass roller ball bottle. All day useful when I start getting hot as I roll it on the back of my neck and it leaves a cooling sensation!!

A wonderful oil!
This is by far the best peppermint I’ve used! A true peppermint smell, so clean and fresh. I have the oil and the roller ball. So many uses! Definitely a must have first oil if you are just getting started.

Best for keeping pests at bay
I use lots of peppermint. And I have found it's awesome to push out the crawlies from the house. I mixed with vinegar and spray around doors and windows. I diffuse it in our unfinished basement. I've watched spiders run for cover when I spray it near them. I heard adding some dish soap makes the spray more lethal. Will be doing that as well.

Can I use peppermint directly on temples for migraine? Or should I️ use a carrier oil?
A shopper on Nov 3, 2017
BEST ANSWER: Anytime you are trying an oil for the first time we do recommend diluting the oil further.
I would suggest starting with 1/2 teaspoon carrier oil for 1-3 drops of the blend. Once you have tried this you can increase or decrease as needed.

Thanks-

Is it safe to diffuse around children?
Carol on Jan 15, 2018
BEST ANSWER: We would not recommend using it around children under the age of 6 years. However, diffusion is known to be one of the safest ways to use essential oils. You should feel safe diffusing, but we would recommend keeping the children away from the direct mist in the diffuser.

How do you make a spray bottle solution with the peppermint oil?
Shannon H on Jan 3, 2018

Mist Spray
75 drops (choice essential oil)
4 ounces Distilled Water
Add ingredients to a 4 ounce, fine mist spray bottle and shake well before every use. Liberally spritz the room as needed. Can refill the water 2-3 times before needing to refill the oil.

Since there’s is an “organic” one now, are you guys saying your regular isn’t as pure?
A shopper on Nov 13, 2017
BEST ANSWER: All of our essential oils are 100% pure, natural and organically grown. They are GMO-Free, GC/MS and Pesticide tested. However, until now, we have not had government USDA Certified Organic oils. Certifying essential oils as organic is a very long, expensive and extensive process.
We have heard our customers requests to bring some USDA Organic oils into our product line and we are starting with these 6 to see how they do. We hope you enjoy them and if you have any further questions, please visit our Organic FAQ page on the website.
