I have no idea. If you put mint tooth paste on a zit for about an hour it will take the zit away.
Actually peppermint oil won't hurt the skin(unless you have very sensitive skin), people use peppermint oil in spas so you should be okay if a little peppermint oil gets on your skin or you could simply wash it off.
The medicinal uses of peppermint is to help with digestion. Peppermint can help setting an upset stomach. Some also use peppermint to help their irritable bowl syndromes.
Can you apply peppermint to your skin? If so how much? Can you please send me any info on what peppermint helps and how to apply it. Thanks J
Peppermint flavoring is commonly used in cooking and baking to add a refreshing and minty taste to dishes. It is often used in desserts such as chocolate peppermint cookies, peppermint bark, and peppermint brownies. Peppermint flavoring can also be added to beverages like hot chocolate, cocktails, and teas for a cool and invigorating flavor.

Peppermint is a spice/flavoring extracted from certain the leaves of the peppermint plant (although most peppermint flavor today is synthetic: a mixture of menthol, menthone, and carboxyl esters, particularly menthyl acetate). While it is commonly used in candies, it has other cooking uses. Peppermint tea is a popular drink (see image above).

Peppermint oil and peppermint flavoring are not the same. Peppermint oil is a concentrated essential oil extracted from peppermint leaves, containing natural compounds that provide its characteristic flavor and aroma. In contrast, peppermint flavoring often refers to synthetic or artificially produced flavor compounds designed to mimic the taste of peppermint, and may not contain the same therapeutic properties as the oil. Therefore, while they share a similar flavor profile, their composition and uses can differ significantly.
