Rain-proof your beauty regime with the goodness of peppermint essential oil, tells Shruti Shukla
Refreshing, soothing, and relaxing—these are some of the very first thoughts that pop in our heads when we think of peppermint. Waking up to a minty fresh fragrance, catching a calming whiff in the middle of work, or unwinding with its sweet aroma at the end of a long, tiring day... peppermint fits into effortlessly into any time frame and ensures a pleasant experience.
Guilty of limiting the benefits of this herb to the daily cuppa, or merely minting your days by popping gum after meals? There’s a treasure trove of its beauty benefits that you must try out. Besides a blast of freshness, peppermint is an easy, all-natural resort to combat major monsoon concerns like clogged pores, dandruff, and frizzy hair.
Read on to know how its minty magic can slide into almost everything in your beauty kit. What’s more? You can whip your own recipes and indulge in a homemade lather this season.
PEPPERMINT FOR SKIN
Suffering from recurring acne? This is where peppermint marches in, parading its antiseptic and antibacterial properties. It helps fight breakouts and blemishes by cleaning the skin from deep within and balancing the natural oils to strike the right pH balance. Its menthol content has a cooling effect that reduces inflammation and encourages clear, bright skin. This makes it a much sought after pick to treat sunburns. In fact, peppermint has proven to have SPF value too.
