Is peppermint essential oil safe for sensitive skin?
When highly diluted (0.1-0.5% for face), but always patch test – cooling menthol can sensitise.

What's the usage rate in cold-process soap?
3-5% of total oils – strong scent; lower for milder effect.

Can it be used in bath bombs?
Yes – 1-3%; disperse with polysorbate 80 to prevent oil rings and ensure even cooling.

Is it suitable for respiratory support?
Yes – diffuse or inhale diluted for congestion relief.

Can it be used undiluted?
No – always dilute; undiluted may cause irritation.

How does it perform in hair care?
0.5-2% in shampoos balances scalp; 1-3% in treatments reduces itch/dandruff.

Is it safe around children?
Diluted and supervised; avoid on very young children due to menthol strength.

Why high menthol content?
Provides signature cooling and therapeutic potency.
