Personal Care Tips-

1. One could add 1-2 drops of the essential oil to salt (preferably rock salt) and a teaspoon of suitable carrier oil like olive oil to formulate an effective scrub which could be used twice a week.  (Avoid the area around the eye while scrubbing).
2. Add two drops of the peppermint essential oil to one teaspoon of warm coconut oil or Aloe Vera gel. You can even include a reduction of tree oil if available. This mixture would collectively work against the itching sensation and provide immediate relief. Even the itching caused by nasty insect bites could be reduced with this oil. 
3. Take 1-2 drops of peppermint oil, one teaspoon of carrier oil, preferably olive oil, and one teaspoon of Vitamin E in a bowl. Apply this mixture to the acne and rinse it off after a while. This would not only eradicate the bacteria that are causing acne but also diminish blemishes. 
4. Add 15 drops of peppermint oil to a glass bottle measuring two ounces. Next, fill this bottle with Aloe-Vera gel and shake vigorously. Apply this mixture over the skin to soothe the inflammation and promote healing.
