Product Description
Inspire clean, invigorating energy and promote natural healing with Organic Peppermint Essential Oil. This essential oil offers a sweet, minty aroma that’s crisp and cooling, with a middle-top fragrance note. When used topically, it creates a gentle tingling effect that functions as an analgesic pain reliever.
Peppermint has a rich history in traditional medicine and home remedies, where it has been used for centuries to promote digestive health, support the respiratory system, and boost immunity. It’s high in natural menthol, which soothes sore muscles, helps with stomachaches and nausea, and acts as a natural expectorant to thin mucus and phlegm.
At Rocky Mountain Oils, we offer the best Organic Peppermint Oil for healing, aromatherapy, skincare, haircare, and more. Try diffusing this oil to purify the air in your space and feel more energized. Peppermint is known to help reduce brain fog, increase focus and memory, and provide a burst of natural energy when you need a quick pick-me-up.
You can also use this essential oil in many homemade cleaning products. Peppermint sanitizes surfaces like tile, wood, and glass while neutralizing odor-causing bacteria and filling your home with minty-clean freshness. Try adding a few drops to baking soda and sprinkling along your carpet or soft furniture for a DIY deodorizing vacuum powder.

Faqs
Organic Peppermint Essential Oil FAQ
-
Can you cook with organic Peppermint essential oil?
No. Organic Peppermint essential oil is for external use only. Although we use the highest quality, certified organic peppermint in this product, essential oils are highly concentrated and should never be ingested. To add the flavor of peppermint to your recipes, we suggest using fresh mint leaves or peppermint extract instead.
-
Does Peppermint essential oil help upset stomach?
Yes! Peppermint is one of the best natural remedies for upset stomach, nausea, indigestion, gas, bloating, cramps, and other gastrointestinal issues. To use organic Peppermint essential oil to soothe your stomach and promote better digestion, dilute this oil with a carrier oil (such as Fractionated Coconut Oil) or your favorite lotion and then apply it to the abdomen. Gently massage the oil in a slow, clockwise direction until you feel relief. You can also apply organic Peppermint oil to the soles of the feet to absorb its anti-inflammatory properties and promote better gut health.
-
Can you use organic Peppermint oil for hair?
Yes! To use organic Peppermint oil for hair, dilute it with a carrier oil or add a few drops to your regular shampoo or conditioner. Gently massage into the scalp to stimulate hair follicles and promote new growth, while soothing dry skin and balancing natural moisture levels to treat or prevent dandruff. Organic Peppermint also helps repair damage caused by over-washing or chemical treatments, detangles and de-frizzes, and smooths split-ends.
-
Will Peppermint oil keep ants away?
Yes! Organic Peppermint oil can be used as a chemical-free insect repellent against ants, spiders, mosquitoes, and other bugs. Try mixing 10 drops of organic Peppermint oil with 4 oz. distilled water, then spritz along windowsills, countertops, and other surfaces to deter insects. You can also diffuse this essential oil or add it to DIY bug-away candles to keep pesky insects away from your outdoor spaces.
