Dilution & Safety

Peppermint oil is a concentrated botanical material, so treat it with care. For skin use, dilute to 0.5% to 2% in a carrier oil and patch test on a small area first. Keep it away from eyes, children, and pets. Not for internal use. Store tightly capped in a cool, dark place.

What Buyers Say About Our Mentha Arvensis Peppermint Essential Oil

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this peppermint oil pure? ▾
Yes. Each bottle is filled with 100% pure and undiluted Mentha arvensis peppermint oil, steam-distilled from the leaves. Nothing is blended in, cut with a carrier, or scented up, so what you open is the plain oil, ready for your own dilution and formulas.
What exactly is Mentha arvensis peppermint oil? ▾
Mentha arvensis is cornmint, also called field mint, and it is one of the two mint species sold as peppermint oil. Its profile runs bold, cooling, and sharply minty with a strong menthol character, so expect an assertive mint rather than a soft one.
What does it smell like and what does it blend with? ▾
It smells bold, cooling, and sharply minty, with a strong menthol character that carries well in blends. Pair it with lavender, rosemary, eucalyptus, lemon, or spearmint when you want the mint to lead or to add a bright lift to the mix.
How do I dilute it for skin use? ▾
For skin use, dilute to between 0.5% and 2% in a carrier oil such as jojoba or sweet almond. That is roughly 3 to 12 drops per ounce of carrier. Start at the low end, patch test first, and keep it well away from your eyes.
What sizes do you offer, and do you sell wholesale? ▾
We offer ten sizes, from 0.5 oz up to 400 lbs: 0.5 oz, 1 oz, 2 oz, 4 oz, 8 oz, 16 oz, 5 lbs, 25 lbs, 100 lbs, and 400 lbs. Wholesale and bulk buyers are welcome, and every size is the same oil held to the same standard.
How does per-ounce pricing change with size? ▾
Per-ounce cost falls steadily as the size goes up. The largest size works out to less than half the per-ounce price of the smallest bottle, so stepping up to a bigger size is the way to stretch your budget if you use the oil regularly.
Can I get lab documentation with a bulk order? ▾
If you need documentation for a bulk order, please contact us before ordering and tell us what you are looking for. We will let you know what we can provide for your size and purpose, so you can decide with the full picture in hand.
Which size should I choose? ▾
A 0.5 oz or 1 oz bottle suits first-time buyers testing the scent or making a small batch. The 2 oz to 16 oz range fits regular crafters, and the 5 lbs and larger sizes are for makers, formulators, and resellers producing at volume.
How and when do orders ship? ▾
Orders ship within 1 to 2 business days. Bulk sizes of 5 lbs and up may need extra handling, so allow a little more time for those. Checkout runs through our Shopify store, where you choose your size and complete your order.
What makes cornmint oil a favorite with makers? ▾
Its strong menthol character carries well in blends, which is why makers reach for it in cleaning blends, lip and body products, foot soaks, and home fragrance. This assertive mint keeps its presence next to other scents in a formula.
