Organic peppermint floral water (hydrolate). Peppermint is a plant that is rich in essential oils, tannins, triterpenes, and flavonoids. It has long been used for its tonifying capacity and also provides general benefits for how it stimulates the central nervous system. When applied on the skin and mucous membranes, mint—and menthol, its primary active ingredient, specifically—lends a localized sense of coolness. As such, it is frequently found in oral hygiene products or in tonics or gels for the feet and legs for the relaxing effects it has on the muscles.
