Menthol has a cool soothing effect on the skin and your body's senses. Also, if used in the right amount, it can tighten pores for a smoother look. The downside to menthol is that it dry's up the skin. If your have dry skin I suggest you don't use it. However oily to normal skin can receive a balenced look from menthol. Try including these ingredients in a homemade facial scrb, becasue they do contain methol:

Why does mint shower gel burn down below?
Mint contains menthol, which can cause a cooling sensation when applied to the skin. However, if your skin is sensitive or if there are any open cuts or irritations, the menthol in the mint shower gel can cause a burning sensation instead of a cooling one. It's best to avoid using mint shower gel near sensitive areas or broken skin to prevent this discomfort.
