✦Benefits
Instant Focus · awake, at once
A clear “mind switch.” Menthol’s high volatility and piercing quality can stimulate the central nervous system, clear a foggy mind, and support focus and memory. A fitting companion for an afternoon slump, a long drive, or a study push.
Cooling Effect · cool down
A natural “liquid cool.” Sprayed on the skin, it can activate cold receptors (TRPM8), bring a clear coolness, lower heat physically, and relieve summer heat or the hot feel in muscles after exercise.
Head & Stomach · ease head and belly
Eases both a heavy head and a full stomach. Whether travel leaves you uneasy or a meal leaves you full, smelling mint brings a fresh, open feeling and quiets the discomfort.
✦Daily Rituals

Focus Time · a focused hour
Add1 dropDrop mint oil on a tissue and set it on the desk. The fresh scent can help you stay clear at the work for several hours.
✦Aromatherapy Applications
Study Boost · study focus
2 drops mint + 2 drops lemon + a diffuser stone
A classic “clear-head blend.” Cool mint meets sharp lemon, and thinking and memory both stay with you.
Temple Cool · ease the temples
2 drops mint + 2 drops lavender + 10ml carrier oil
Put it in a roller and apply it to the temples and the back of the neck when you need. Mint’s cool can ease tightness in the head.
Cooling Spray · a cooling spray
10 drops mint + 5ml alcohol + 45ml clean water
Shake and spray on clothes or limbs (avoid the face). Outdoors in summer or in a stuffy carriage, it cools the moment it lands.
