MENTHOL CRYSTALS
INCI Name: Menthol

CAS Number: 89-78-1

Product Description
Menthol Crystals are naturally derived from mint essential oils (typically Mentha arvensis) and crystallized through a rapid freezing process. These clear-to-white crystals deliver an intense cooling sensation, a fresh peppermint aroma, and mild analgesic properties. Widely used in balms, salves, foot creams, scalp treatments, lip products, and inhalants, menthol crystals are a powerful way to add refreshment, clarity, and invigoration to your formulations.

They melt easily into oils and emulsions and are highly concentrated, so a little goes a long way.
