Peppermint oil is a natural skin cleanser.   It has antiseptic and antibacterial properties.  It has a cooling effect which soothes irritation and inflammation due to acne.  It is also known to have antimicrobial properties that may help reduce levels of acne causing bacteria on the skin to help treat pimples. 

Peppermint leaves contain Vitamins A and C which are powerful antioxidants that fight inflammation. It is rich in B vitamins, riboflavin, and folate, which can brighten the complexion.  

There have been studies done on the benefits of peppermint oil on migraine/tension headaches, nasal congestion, arthritis pain, digestion problems, bad breath, to increase energy, relieve itching, and to fight certain viruses and infections.  The list of possible peppermint oil benefits goes on and on and dates back to Ancient Egyptian times.  

The aroma of peppermint is so crisp, clean and fresh.  It is just a wonderful uplifting scent.
