FEATURES AND BENEFITS Boldly Beautiful: Thyme Red Essential Oil delivers a bright, fresh, vibrant aroma with woody and medicinal undertones. Its sharp, warming scent adds energy and depth to soaps, scrubs, and diffuser blends. The Red Variety: Red Thyme is the primary distillate of Thymus vulgaris, making it more concentrated than White Thyme Oil. This bold variety offers a stronger herbaceous scent with depth — ideal for formulations that call for intensity and staying power. Focus Fuel: Feeling foggy or unmotivated? The energizing aroma of Thyme Red Essential Oil helps cut through mental clutter. Diffuse it on sluggish days to help restore clarity, boost productivity, and shake off procrastination. A Legacy of Strength & Courage: Since ancient times, thyme has symbolized bravery and resilience. Roman soldiers bathed in it before battle, and it was gifted to knights as a token of valor. Today, that same sense of fortitude lives on in its invigorating scent — a grounding oil for body, mind, and spirit. DESCRIPTION Thyme Red Essential Oil is bold by nature — warming, sharp, and intensely herbaceous. Steam distilled from Thymus vulgaris grown in sunny Spain, this is the primary distillate of thyme, offering a stronger, more concentrated aroma than its White Thyme counterpart. A woody-medicinal scent brings immediate clarity, while a high thymol content lends natural cleansing properties. Makers love it in soaps, facial oil cleansers, body scrubs, and scalp treatments targeting acne, buildup, or dandruff. Long associated with courage and resilience, thyme was used in the Middle Ages to ward off disease and freshen the air. Today, Red Thyme Essential Oil is used in formulations that aim to invigorate the senses, purify skin, and clarify the mind. Red Thyme Essential Oil uses range from skin care and scalp treatments to natural cleaning and aromatherapy. Due to a high phenol content (thymol and carvacrol), this oil must be well diluted before use. DIRECTIONS & SUGGESTED USAGE Clarifying Soaps: Add 0.5–1% of Thyme Red Essential Oil to your soap recipes for a sharp, herbaceous aroma and natural cleansing power. Due to its potency, create a small trial batch to test scent and performance. Always patch test before topical use to check for skin compatibility. Clear Complexions: In facial oil cleansers, body scrubs, and acne-targeted formulations, use 0.2–0.5% of Thyme Red Essential Oil for effective cleansing and balancing. Patch testing is highly recommended. Herbal Hair Care: Add 0.2–0.6% of Thyme Red Essential Oil to shampoos, conditioners, or hair masks to clarify the scalp, reduce dandruff, and soothe irritation. Wake Up Call: Diffuse 3–5 drops of Thyme Red Essential Oil for an energizing, clarifying atmosphere that supports mental focus and emotional strength. Avoid direct inhalation or excessive use due to its potent phenols. Natural Cleaning Boost: Incorporate 0.5–1% of Thyme Red Essential Oil in green cleaning sprays, laundry detergents, or disinfectants for its strong cleansing and fresh herbal scent. Bye Bye, Bugs: Use 0.5–1% of Thyme Red Essential Oil in natural insect sprays, sachets, or outdoor candles.
