DESCRIPTION

The word 'pepper' finds its origin in the Latin term "piper," which, in turn, traces back to the Sanskrit word "pippali." A spice of immense value, pepper was highly sought after by ancient civilizations. Embraced by the Greeks and Romans for its rich flavor, it held such prominence that the Turks imposed a tax on its trade. During the Middle Ages, conflicts arose as the Dutch, French, and Portuguese vied for control of this precious commodity.

Today, Pepper Black Essential Oil's distinctive peppery, musky aroma makes it a staple ingredient in skin care, cosmetic, and perfumery. Synonymous with sophistication, this spice oil adds depth to an array of formulations.


DIRECTIONS AND SUGGESTED USAGE

  • Natural Home Cleaning: Mix a few drops with water and white vinegar for a natural, effective cleaning solution. Use on surfaces throughout your home.

  • Warm Steamer: Add 2 drops of Pepper Black Essential Oil to a bowl of hot water and inhale the steam deeply. Alternatively, blend with a carrier oil and apply to the chest for a comforting respiratory massage.

  • Perk Up Your Mood: Add 5-6 drops of Pepper Black Essential Oil to your diffuser. Allow the peppery, musky aroma to permeate the air.

  • Spot Treatment for Troubled Skin: Dilute 1-2 drops of Pepper Black Essential Oil with a carrier oil and apply directly to blemishes or scars using a cotton swab. Gently massage and leave on for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
