Pennyroyal Oil

Pennyroyal Oil is a potent and aromatic essential oil derived from the leaves of the Mentha pulegium plant. Known for its intense minty fragrance, this oil is traditionally used in cosmetic and topical applications. Due to its strong properties, Pennyroyal Oil is ideal for external use in aromatherapy blends, massage oils, and DIY beauty products when properly diluted. Not for internal use.

Benefits:

1. Aromatherapy: Add a few drops to a diffuser to cleanse the air and promote clarity.
2. Cosmetic formulations: Use in soaps, lotions, or balms for its aromatic and cleansing properties (always dilute).
3. Massage oil blends: Combine with carrier oils for topical applications, avoiding sensitive areas.
4. Insect repellent: Pennyroyal Oil may be added to sprays or candles to deter mosquitoes.

How to Use:

• Dilution required: Always dilute with a carrier oil before applying to the skin (recommended ratio: 1-2%).
• Diffusion: Use 2–3 drops in an essential oil diffuser for a fresh, minty scent.
• Topical use: Add to creams, lotions, or body butters for external application only.
• Avoid use during pregnancy, on broken skin, or near mucous membranes.
