Organic Peppermint Hydrosol

A bit of background:

Peppermint is a hybrid plant created from a cross between spearmint and water mint, with a characteristic fresh and minty scent. It is a herbaceous plant that thrives in a temperate oceanic climate, making it easy to grow.

Organic peppermint hydrosol is suitable for many uses: astringent, it can refresh the skin – especially in summer – scent a room, or add fragrance to your homemade laundry. Its 200 ml bottle comes with a spray cap for easy application.

While the essential oil must be used with caution, the hydrosol is much easier to use, though it still has some contraindications.
