Mentha piperita water, the aqueous solution of the peppermint plant extract obtained by steam distillation, is used in cosmetic formulations. The solution strengthens skin or hair; it has a refreshing, deodorizing effect and is used as a fragrance (reduces or masks unpleasant body odor; reduces or inhibits the basic odor or taste of a product).
