When you think of peppermint, you probably picture candy canes or holiday treats—but doTERRA’s Peppermint essential oil goes way beyond flavor. It’s one of those oils I always keep on hand because it’s so versatile.
Benefits of Peppermint Oil:
- Refreshing Aroma: Just a drop in your palms, inhale deeply, and you’ll feel instantly uplifted.
- Cooling Sensation: Dilute with a carrier oil and apply to the back of your neck for a crisp, cooling effect—especially nice after time outdoors.
- Natural Freshness: One drop in the diffuser leaves your whole space smelling bright and clean.
- Instant Pick-Me-Up: Keep it on hand to wake up your senses when you’re feeling sluggish.
Family-Friendly Ways to Use Peppermint Oil:
- After Outdoor Play: Make a cooling spray (peppermint + water in a small spray bottle) for a refreshing mist on warm days.
- Homework Helper: Diffuse to create an energizing environment while kids are working or studying.
- Road Trips: Keep a roller blend handy for a fresh, uplifting scent in the car.
- Sports & Activities: Add a drop to a cotton ball and tuck it into gym shoes or sports bags for freshness.
- Around the Home: Diffuse with citrus oils for a clean, inviting scent everyone enjoys.
DIY “Cooling Energy” Roller Blend (Make & Take Recipe):
- 10 drops doTERRA Peppermint
- 5 drops doTERRA Lemon
- 5 drops doTERRA Frankincense
- Top with Fractionated Coconut Oil in a 10 mL roller bottle
How to use: Roll on wrists, the back of your neck, or simply inhale from the roller when you want a crisp, refreshing aroma.
Whether you’re diffusing, blending, or spritzing, Peppermint is a staple oil that adds a burst of freshness and energy to your everyday routine.
