Massada Thyme Essential Oil 15ml

Revitalizing essential thyme oil for skin, scalp, and circulation

Thyme is one of the most powerful medicinal herbs from the Mediterranean tradition—and its essential oil concentrates all that power in a pure, direct form. While the herbal Thyme Oil is a ready-to-use body oil for daily use, the essential thyme oil offers a more versatile and targeted application profile: from stimulating skin care to an effective hair tonic on the scalp, and from room aromatization to an energizing massage blend.

Massada Thyme Essential Oil is based on pure Thymus Vulgaris Oil, supplemented with limonene, linalool, geraniol, and benzyl alcohol. The oil stimulates blood circulation in the skin and scalp, protects the skin from external influences, improves skin texture, and with regular use on the scalp supports hair vitality. The herbal, slightly camphoraceous aroma is energizing and revitalizing.

Benefits

• Stimulates blood circulation in the skin and scalp for healthier, more vibrant-looking skin
• Protects the skin against external aggressors and improves skin texture when used diluted
• Acts as a powerful hair tonic: strengthens the scalp and supports hair growth
• Gives the skin a feeling of vitality and freshness through the toning effect of thymol
• Versatile use: diffuser, massage blend, hair care, or skin care

Active ingredients

Thymus Vulgaris Oil (thyme oil): The pure essential oil of true thyme, distilled from the flowering tops of the plant. The active profile is dominated by thymol and carvacrol—two phenol compounds with powerful antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties. Thymol stimulates local blood circulation in the skin and scalp, activates hair follicles through improved microcirculation, and protects the skin against bacteria and fungi. On the scalp, thyme oil contributes to a healthier environment for hair growth and reduces the tendency for dandruff and impurities on the scalp. Due to the high thymol content, always dilute in a carrier oil—never apply undiluted to the skin.

Linalool: Adds a soft, floral undertone to the pronounced herbal aroma of thyme and has a mild calming effect. Linalool softens the sharp character of thymol in the formula, making the oil more pleasant for use on the skin.

Limonene: A fresh citrusy terpene that lifts the aroma and provides antioxidant protection. Limonene enhances the protective effect of the formula on the skin and contributes to the oil's shelf life.

Geraniol: An aromatic alcohol with a light rosy, floral accent that rounds off and adds depth to the scent profile. Geraniol has mild antimicrobial properties and is a recognized fragrance allergen listed on cosmetic labels in accordance with EU regulations.

Benzyl Alcohol: A naturally occurring aromatic alcohol in thyme with a slightly floral aroma. Benzyl alcohol also has preservative properties that stabilize the formula. It is a recognized fragrance allergen — people with a known perfume allergy should take this into account.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the Thyme Essential Oil 15ml and the Thyme Oil 250ml?

The Thyme Oil 250ml is a ready-to-use plant-based body oil made from thyme extract and soybean oil — directly usable on the skin without dilution, specifically aimed at muscle recovery and circulation. The Thyme Essential Oil 15ml is a concentrated pure essential oil intended for aromatherapy, diluted use on skin or scalp, or as an addition to shampoo. The essential oil has a broader application profile including hair care.

How strong is the scent of thyme oil and can I combine it with other oils?

Thyme oil has a distinct, herbal, and slightly sharp aroma that is strongly present. In a diffuser, 3 drops are sufficient as a starting point. The oil blends well with lavender (for a calmer blend), rosemary (for a powerful hair growth blend), or lemon oil (for a fresh, energetic combination).

Is thyme oil safe for use on the face?

Thyme oil contains thymol, a powerful phenol compound that can cause skin irritation at higher concentrations. For use on the face, maintain a maximum concentration of 0.5% (1 drop per 10 ml carrier oil). Always test on a small area first. The oil is less suitable for use on the face for sensitive skin.
