What is Japanese Camellia Oil?

Japanese Camellia Oil, also known as Tsubaki Oil or Tea Seed Oil, is rich in plant collagen, deeply hydrates the skin and is a nourishing care product for your hair.

This oil is cold-pressed from the seeds of the Yabu-Tsubaki plant (Camellia Japonica), a family member of the tea tree plant. The oil has a golden-yellow colour, feels light and has many applications.

Benefits

During pregnancy

Camellia Oil is rich in plant collagen, which hydrates the skin, making it soft and supple. Camellia Oil is therefore wonderful for rubbing on your body during pregnancy, when the skin comes under tension and can feel tight.

Powerful anti-aging properties

Thanks to its high plant collagen content, the oil is also a beautiful anti-ager. The oil keeps skin supple, contributes to elastin production and activates the skin's self-healing ability for dryness and ageing.

Deeply hydrates the skin

Japanese Camellia Oil penetrates quickly deep into the skin, where it nourishes and hydrates. This results in supple, firm and radiant skin. The oil is suitable for all skin types, including oily skin, because the oil does its work without clogging pores.

Makes your hair shine

The beautifully shiny hair that the Japanese are known for is partly thanks to this rich, nourishing oil. For centuries, Camellia Oil has been used as a hair product, both for care and to style the hair. The oil makes hair soft and manageable, hydrates, protects and repairs. In addition, the oil cares for the dry scalp.

How to use it?

In the hair

Massage a few drops of the oil into towel-dried hair and scalp for nourishment, hydration, protection and shine. Pay extra attention to the ends.

For extra rich care, you can massage the oil into your hair before washing. Cover your hair with a shower cap and let it absorb for about 30 minutes. Then wash your hair as you normally do.

For the face

Rub a few drops of the oil warm between your hands and massage onto cleansed skin. Make slow, circular movements. Optionally apply an extra drop on wrinkles or fine lines.

On the body

Apply a small amount of the oil to your skin after showering. Massage the skin until the oil has absorbed. You can do this both in the morning and in the evening.

What makes it so special?

Japanese Camellia Oil is a rich source of plant collagen, omega fatty acids and antioxidants. Combined with the property that the oil absorbs quickly, this makes Camellia Oil a wonderful hydrating oil for the whole body. Tip: massage your nails and cuticles with this rich oil too.
