Specifications and handling
Thyme hydrosol appears as a clear aqueous liquid that may foam when shaken and can show minor natural sediment. It is obtained by steam distillation of thyme herb in Ukraine. INCI name is Thymus Vulgaris Flower Water. The 50 ml retail pack suits small-scale testing. Hydrosols & Floral Waters section lists multiple plant waters. Thyme Hydrosol 50 ml is a practical choice for initial formulation trials.
Form and storage details
Store tightly closed after opening at 0 to +8 degrees Celsius away from light. Best before date is 03.2028. The product remains stable in water-based systems and supports batch consistency for small production runs.
Input percentage and phase
Recommended usage is 1-100% in the water phase added below 40 degrees Celsius. It mixes readily with other hydrosols and humectants for emulsions and mists.
Applications in bulk formulas
Thyme hydrosol serves as water phase in creams, masks and hair rinses. It refreshes skin appearance and supports a clean-looking scalp. Thyme Hydrosol 1 L is available for larger batches.
Example mask formulation
Thyme Hydrosol 45%, Aloe Vera Juice 25%, Kaolin 15%, Glycerin 5%, Jojoba Oil 8%, Xanthan Gum 2%. Disperse clay and gum in hydrosol and aloe, add glycerin and oil, mix to uniform paste.
Compatibility notes
The hydrosol pairs with various floral waters for custom mists. Hydrosols Bulk offers options for laboratories and factories.
Additional formulation concepts
Formulators incorporate thyme hydrosol into body mists and scalp toners for everyday refreshment. In masks it contributes to a clean skin appearance and comfortable after-feel. The ingredient works well in cleansing gels to enhance the light herbal note. This versatility helps create streamlined products suitable for both home and small-lab production. The compact 50 ml size supports quick prototyping without excess inventory.
Batch production considerations
In larger production runs thyme hydrosol maintains formula stability across multiple batches. It integrates seamlessly into base emulsions to add a fresh note without altering viscosity. Laboratories rely on it for blended hydrosol systems that deliver consistent sensory profiles. This approach benefits small factories and professional spas seeking reliable natural inputs. The retail pack allows precise scaling before committing to bulk volumes.
