Thyme Essential Oil..a new one for my foray into essential oils


The Thyme Essential Oil by Simply Earth comes in a 15 ml amber glass bottle with a Euro dropper. I've been acquiring essential oils to build up my collection for home made health and beauty products and to use in aromatherapy. Thyme oil is known as a natural antibiotic. When some bacteria and super bugs become resistant to drugs, natural antibiotics such as thyme can still be used. I got the thyme oil to use in a diffuser for aromatherapy and to make a lemon and thyme salt scrub for the skin. To my nose, thyme oil has an herby, medicinal smell, but as it diffuses and fades it becomes more pleasant. In aromatherapy, it is used to stimulate the mind and help concentration and can be used to treat respiratory problems with inhalation.

Chill, aerate and pour with one tool

The VinoVivo 3-in-1 Wine ChillerAerator/Pourer comes in two parts: the acrylic wine pourer/aerator and the stainless steel chill rod. The chill rod is heavy and feels very solid. It goes in your freezer for at least two hours before using, but can just be left in the freezer so that it is ready for the next use. The pourer/aerator screws on to the top of the rod. After pouring off a little wine, the pourer and rod are put into the bottle. Then your wine is chilled and it is aerated as it is poured. Aeration will help take away some of the harshness of wines with tannins. The device is easy to clean, washing by hand and letting it air dry. I received this product for free in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015D75J00… ‪#‎winechiller‬
