#SimplyEarth Peppermint Essential Oil

Since I need to keep Big Brother Happy.
I received this product for free to facilitate my review, in exchange for my honest opinion. For more information regarding product review, please refer to my media kit. 

I have to say that I was a bit surprised when my bottle of Simply Earth Peppermint Essential Oil arrived.  It was sent via regular mail, in a small mailer envelop, not even a padded envelop, but it was wrapped in a small amount of bubble wrap around the bottle.  That being said, it did arrive just fine.

I have seen or purchased other Essential Oils in the past and found that the Simply Earth oil was in a much larger bottle, 15ml, than the others.  I will admit I was very happy to see this.  I really love the smell of peppermint and having even a little bit more is a good thing.

The bottle also has an interesting dropper.  It is called an Euro dropper.  

Basically it is attached to the top of the bottle and allows 1 drop of the oil to be released at a time.  I found that it was much easier to control amount of drops I used with this kind of dropper.  I believe that all liquids of this type should have this kind of dropper.

You may be able to find a Peppermint Essential Oil at a slightly lower cost, but remember it is a bigger bottle than other companies and they donate 13% of the profits to organizations who help to rehabilitate human trafficking victims.

I have heard that Peppermint Essential Oils have some great benefits other than the wonderful scent.  Here are just a few, and those I have tried myself, but remember there are so many more.

• I added a few drops to my garbage can in the kitchen, so every time it is opened you get a nice minty "breeze"
• I added a few drops to a small vessel and put in my office for a very subtle scent, add a fan on low and the scent is stronger. 
• It can pep you up in a non-stimulating way for long drives or long study sessions.  
• It can make you feel ready to face the day, if you add a few drops to your shampoo and/or conditioner.  I've tried this one and have to say it really does work!
• I even added a few drops to my bath sponge and shower gel to add a bit more zip to my shower.  
• Many household "pests", including spiders, don't like the smell so they will be leaving or not staying at your home.
• A single drop in water, herbal teas or food products like chocolate, get an interesting flavor without being overpowering.

This small, eco-friendly family owned/run company seems to have a real winner with their Peppermint Essential Oils.  

I will definitely be looking to try a few more of their essential oils in the near future.
