All you gotta do is go to the store and pick one. All of the main brands make body wash with menthol for some reason. Men's body wash with menthol. What could go wrong? I haven't been brave enough.
I once bought one of these as a gag gift for White Elephant. I should ask him how it went since the dude who got it is the type to actually use it because "it's there"
Come to think of it, I'm betting I've been gifted some at some point and never used it. Maybe buried in one of the bathroom cabinets. Those things are basically graveyards for gifts like that.
Back when aromatherapy wasn't even a word, people experimented with stuff. Once, with flu and feeling very feverish, I put a few drops of essential oil of peppermint in the bath.
You know why mint makes your mouth cold? Because it's actually a mild local anaesthetic. Yes: you can, I found, do that to your whole body. Not advisable. Especially if you're steaming feverish inside.
Oh sure, a nice eucalyptus bath is fine. I just draw the line at directly and vigorously applying lathering mentholated goo on sensitive areas. And its not like it is subtle. Open up a bottle and 'feel the rush' in your nose.
That's the other thing. They tend to be marketed as energizing more than soothing. For people who rub menthol on their nipples I guess.
