Description
Some say that spearmint oil may help reduce facial hair growth in women, but there is limited research to support this claim:Â
- Drinking spearmint tea may help reduce hirsutism, or the growth of dark, coarse hair on the face, chest, and abdomen. Some studies have shown that drinking spearmint tea may reduce testosterone levels and increase follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). However, it may take six weeks to three months to notice improvements in hair growth.Â
- Some say that adding two to three drops of spearmint oil to your favorite moisturizer and massaging it into the area where you get your facial hair may help. However, essential oils can cause skin irritation, so it’s important to consider how well the oil will penetrate the hair follicle.Â
Spearmint oil also has other potential benefits, including:Â
- Reducing stress and anxiety
- Balancing hormones in women
- Improving arthritis-related pain
- Lowering blood pressure
- Fighting bacterial infections
- Unclogging skin and promoting cleansing
- Reducing the appearance of skin imperfections such as pigmentation and discoloration
