Benefits of Thyme for Health
Like many valued herbs, thyme is an excellent source of antioxidants, specifically vitamins C and A, which are essential for a variety of functions such as immune health. Thyme is also rich in minerals like copper, iron, and manganese.
And while supporting your immune system is key in preventing illness, thyme and thyme essential oil even has a history in folk remedies for respiratory conditions, including bronchitis and coughs, thanks to a component known as thymol.
As demonstrated in a study from the European Respiratory Journal in 2013, thymol can help suppress the urge to cough by modulating the beta-2 receptors and the mucociliary response.
Aside from immune and respiratory health, thyme may also be helpful for gastrointestinal health thanks to its antimicrobial properties, which may help protect your gut’s microbiome and protective gastric mucus layers from “bad” bacteria.
For these reasons, thyme essential oil is an incredibly versatile substance for everyday life. But what’s more is that it’s great for skin care, as well!
Benefits of Thyme Essential Oil for Skin
Thyme essential oil has a prominent history in skin care. Its been especially useful in cases of rashes, lesions, and common skin irritations like eczema (atopic dermatitis).
According to one study published in the International Journal of Dermatology, an antifungal topical cream made with 3% thyme essential oil was effective for healing lesions caused by fungal infections.
Thanks to its anti-inflammatory properties, thyme essential oil may also have benefits for those with atopic dermatitis. According to one 2018 study in International Immunopharmacology, it was found that thymol can inhibit the inflammatory response. It was also suggested to abate the swelling of the dermal and epidermal layers of the skin.
That’s why we made our own Fruit Pigmented® Tinted Moisturizer with a combination of thyme, carrot root, and acai oil. This formula helps to hydrate and calm the skin for a clear, refreshed complexion.
In the case of using thyme essential oil for acne, this herb’s antimicrobial properties can definitely come in handy!
While acne can be caused by a number of factors like diet, hormonal imbalance and reactions to certain products, it’s most commonly caused by bacteria – specifically, P. acnes. But with the help of thymol’s antibacterial effects, thyme essential oil can help prevent the onset of breakouts.
Try using the 2nd Skin Concealer – which is made with thyme – to conceal blemishes while actively fighting acne swelling and inflammation.
Benefits of Thyme Oil for Hair Growth
With its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, it’s no surprise that thyme essential oil is often used for hair growth and scalp health!
In the scalp, thyme can help lessen dandruff by preventing inflammatory bacteria and nourishing the follicle, creating a healthy environment for new hair cells. Thyme can even stimulate blood circulation in the scalp, to encourage hair growth.
These benefits don’t just apply to the hair on your scalp: thyme essential oil can also support eyelash and eyebrow growth. Its antimicrobial benefits are especially useful in these cases, as our eyes are already working hard to prevent pathogens from entering our bodies.
We use thyme in our Green Tea Fiber Brow Builder, which works to create fuller brows with the help of stimulating coffee beans and green tea.
For lashes seekinglength and volume, we love our Fruit Pigmented Ultra Lengthening Mascara. This best-selling formula nourishes lash follicles with thyme, oat protein, and wheat protein, along with antioxidant-rich blackberry and blackcurrant.
