DefinitionThis section has been translated automatically.

Thymus vulgaris flower/leaf extract is an extract of Thymus vulgaris, the true thyme (Garden Thyme), which is obtained from the fresh leaves and flowers of the plant. The extract is used in cosmetic formulations.

The extract acts as a skin care product (keeps the skin in good condition), tonic (creates a pleasant feeling on the skin or hair) and masking (reduces or inhibits an undesirable inherent smell or taste of the product).
