Shelf Life of Peppermint Essential Oil:
Our freshly decanted Peppermint essential oil will last for 3-4 years minimum from when you open your amber glass bottle if stored correctly:
Primary Storage Considerations:
Keep away from direct light (U.V. radiation)
Keep in the amber glass bottle with lid tightly closed. Only open when you need to and decant into a smaller "working" amber glass bottle if possible (and label so you know what is in it). This is to reduce oxidation.
Secondary Storage Considerations:
Keep in a refrigerator at around 4 degrees celsius.
Peppermint essential oil may be used as an anti-inflammatory and antibacterial. It is well known for its ability to aid digestive problems and skin conditions.
Like peppermint itself, the essential oil contains a sweet, cool, minty and fresh aroma.
Peppermint essential oil blends well with Spearmint, Pine, Geranium and Cypress.
