dōTERRA Spearmint 15ml
description
Spearmint is a perennial plant that grows from 30 cm to 1 meter tall and thrives in temperate climates. It freshens breath and is commonly used in chewing gum, candy and dental care products due to its minty flavor. The sweet, uplifting aroma is cleansing and uplifting, making it ideal for promoting focus and positive moods. Spearmint differs greatly from peppermint: it is milder and therefore a good alternative for topical use in children and people with sensitive skin. In the kitchen, spearmint is often used in salads, drinks and desserts, but also in dressings and marinades for meat dishes.
