I haven't tried peppermint soap but I have peppermint oil. Do you think it would work, and what do you do with it.

Peppermint oil is an appetite stimulant as well so you have to be careful with it.

I mix about 15 drops of peppermint oil into 8oz liquid soap and shake. Use it to wash your face.

It clears out sinuses (hubby, SIL, mom, MIL all love it for this), is anitbacterial, and works great on acne. Hubby uses it all the time and doesn't have a problem with the soap working up his appetite.

If you just want to try it, put one drop in with some liquid soap and wash your face. Another option is to boil water, put 3 drops in and inhale the steam, but I don't think that works as well.

Also, horseradish works well.
