PEPPERMINT INTRODUCTION
Peppermint is a perennial herb with a soft, square-shaped stem. It comes in green or purple hues, with elongated leaves that have serrated edges. It has a distinctive spicy scent that is both alluring and pleasantly refreshing when used.
It’s an easy-to-grow and low-maintenance plant, as even a small cutting can grow roots and flourish. Many people often confuse peppermint with spearmint; however, they are two distinct types of plants within the same family and have a slightly similar appearance, but they are not the same.
Peppermint has highly potent antibacterial properties, aiding in eradicating bacteria causing skin issues in areas affected by injuries. Therefore, Peppermint Extract is particularly beneficial for oily or acne-prone skin. Peppermint Extract not only reduces skin oiliness but also treats acne, prevents dryness, cools the skin, and brightens areas with uneven skin tone.
