How can Menthol Crystals best be used?
Menthol Crystals are suitable for skin care creams and cosmetics or dissolving in essential oils, so that they are easily used in aromatherapy treatments, in the sauna and dissolve in alcohol. The cream can be easily applied to the skin after the crystals have dissolved.
Use 1: Anti-itch creams
For personal care, you can apply a small amount of menthol crystals in an ointment to promote blood flow. You can also add menthol crystals as an alcoholic solution to anti-itch creams.
Use 2: Dissolve in essential oils
Dissolve the menthol crystals in essential oils such as Eucalyptus oil or Lavender / Lavandin oil to use the refreshing effect of the menthol in combination with a different scent in the sauna. When the menthol crystals are dissolved in an essential oil, they are also easier to use in aromatherapy treatments.
Rather not dissolve so many menthol crystals in the following oils
Menthol crystals will still partly dissolve in Mint oil or Peppermint oil, but since this essential oil already contains a lot of menthol, not all menthol crystals may dissolve well in it.
Use 3: In the saunaFirst fill with ice or water and then put a few menthol crystals on the stove in a scoop of ice. Let the menthol crystals melt on the stove. In the sauna, be careful not to use too much as it can be too strong for the eyes if the air is moved by means of a towel in the sauna cabin. |
Usage 4: Dissolve in Alcohol or hot water
Menthol crystals can also be dissolved in alcohol or hot water before use. A 2 to 10% solution is most convenient. Please note the risk of fire, so always add water or ice before pouring. Our guideline for mixing is to apply 25 ml (alcohol incl. menthol crystals) to 5 liters of water. You can adjust this amount as needed.
Use 5: In the steam room
Place a glass or stainless steel dish under the steam pipe of the steam cabin. Every time the steam passes over the menthol crystals, the delicious, refreshing menthol scent will emerge. If it is too strong, reduce the steam or put fewer menthol crystals in the dish. If it's not strong enough, turn up the steam or add more menthol crystals to the bowl.
Use 6: In a hand soap, shower gel or shampoo
To obtain a cooling effect when a shampoo is applied to the head, we have developed Mint Fresh shampoo that contains Menthol crystals. We also have Mint Fresh hand soap and shower gel.
Menthol crystals are edible
In addition to the fact that menthol crystals are used for the fragrance, they are also edible. Since they are very concentrated, it is already effective if a few crystals are used in the food. If you have no experience with this, use as little as possible in the beginning so that it is not overpowering. In food such as custard, the crystals slowly dissolve. They are wonderfully refreshing and have a strong mint flavour. Only use 1 to 2 crystals on a full bowl of custard. The crystals are mainly used in desserts, chewing gum, candies and other refreshing foods. 1 crystal can sometimes be enough to add a good taste to a dish.
Do not use during pregnancy
Due to the strong effect of menthol crystals, they should not be used during pregnancy.
