Pepper (Black) Essential Oil 1/8th Oz. (Piper Nigrum)

Product Details

Black pepper essential oil, steam distilled from the dried peppercorns of the Piper nigrum plant, is a powerful addition to any aromatherapist's toolkit. Its invigorating and spicy aroma is known to stimulate the mind and improve focus. When diffused, black pepper oil can be particularly helpful to combat fatigue and enhance concentration during long study sessions or demanding work.

For topical application, black pepper essential oil should be heavily diluted in a carrier oil like jojoba or almond oil due to its potency. A diluted massage blend incorporating black pepper can be beneficial for easing muscle tension and soreness, especially after exercise. Black pepper oil's warming properties may also help improve circulation when applied topically.

In the realm of aromatherapy, black pepper oil pairs well with citrus oils like lemon or grapefruit for an invigorating and mood-lifting blend. For grounding and warming massage oil, consider combining black pepper with ginger or clary sage. It's important to note that while black pepper essential oil has many potential benefits, it should always be diluted before topical use and never ingested.
