Product Description
Product Description
Organic Camellia Oil, also known as Tea Seed Oil, is a timeless beauty secret. Traditionally used in Japan and China, it was used by geishas to hydrate the skin and add shine to the hair. Extracted from the seeds of the Camellia oleifera plant through cold pressing, this oil maintains its natural integrity and is perfect for modern skincare and haircare routines.
Lightweight and non-greasy, Camellia Oil absorbs quickly into the skin and penetrates deep to lock in moisture. It has high percentage of oleic acid (Omega 9), small amount of palmitic and linoleic fatty acids, indicating the nutritional profile of the oil. Camellia seed oil also contains stearic acid which is good for skin and hair. With regular use, skin will be smoother and more radiant, hair will be shinier and more manageable.
It’s also great for soapmaking and protective conditioning products. Whether you’re making a hydrating facial oil, a nourishing hair serum or enriching your cream and lotion bases, Organic Camellia Oil is a must have natural ingredient.
What is Camellia Seed Oil
Camellia seed oil also known as tea seed oil is a natural oil extracted from the seeds of the Camellia Oleifera plant. This oil has been a beauty secret in traditional Japanese culture for centuries, known for its ability to nourish and moisturise both skin and hair. Rich in oleic acid, a fatty acid that provides optimum hydration, camellia seed oil helps to strengthen dry hair and revitalise dull and lifeless skin. Its non-greasy finish and high antioxidants make it perfect for those looking for a natural and effective way to get a soft and glowing skin.
Properties of Oleifera Seed Oil
Oleifera seed oil, also known as camellia seed oil, is known for its light and fast absorbing texture. This oil is rich in antioxidants and essential fatty acids, including high amount of oleic acid, palmitic and stearic acids. Its oil soluble and heat stable nature makes it a versatile ingredient in many skincare and haircare formulations. The natural antioxidants and polyphenols in camellia seed oil protects the skin from UV and other environmental stressors and leaves the skin feeling soft, smooth and supple.
Camellia Seed Oil as a Carrier Oil
Camellia seed oil is an excellent carrier oil due to its lightweight and fast absorbing nature. It dilutes essential oils well, making them safe for use on the skin and hair. Rich in antioxidants and essential fatty acids, camellia seed oil nourishes and moisturises the skin and restores strength to dry hair. This results to soft, smooth and supple skin and healthy and shiny hair.
Choosing the Right Cold Pressed Oil
When choosing a cold pressed oil, quality and purity is key. Cold pressed camellia seeds ensures that the oil is extracted without heat or chemicals, preserving its natural antioxidants and essential fatty acids. Look for a cold pressed oil that is high in oleic acid and has a light yellow colour, that’s high quality and pure. By choosing the right cold pressed oil, you can enjoy all the benefits of camellia seed oil and have a soft and radiant glow for your skin and hair.
How to use it
How to use it
Skin Care
- Camellia Seed Oil is excellent to use as a moisturiser because it penetrates very quickly and deeply into the skin, giving your skin optimum hydration without having a greasy feel. Your skin will feel refreshed, smooth and firm.
- It gives your skin a supple and radiant glow that you can see and feel.
- Can improve the look of dull and lifeless skin which makes it look younger and fresher.
- As it contains high levels of antioxidants, use this benefit in age defying creams, lotions and serums.
- Excellent for all skin types including combination skin.
- It makes an excellent cleanser just on its own as it lifts dirt and impurities and softens makeup so it can be wiped away cleanly. It is even better when blended with other oils such as in the Cleansing Oil recipe.
- Camellia Seed Oil is ideal to use as a baby massage oil or after bath oil where just a few drops will sink in quickly and lock in moisture. Use this also after adult baths and showers especially on elbows, knees and feet.
- It is ideal to use as a cuticle oil as it sinks in so quickly and softens the cuticles and strengthens the nail bed. In a roller ball bottle, it can be applied to the lips and it will help to stop lipstick bleeding the colour.
- Camellia Seed Oil is one of the first choice oils to use in eye serums and eye creams as it sinks in very quickly and leaves the skin soft and moisturised. It contains naturally occurring squalene.
- It is protective to the skin as it contains Vitamins E, as well as polyphenols and natural antioxidants that safeguard your skin from the damaging effects of UV exposure but it should not be considered as an SPF sunscreen in its own right. Use in daily defense creams, lotions and gels.
- A good choice for problem skin as it helps to keep the pores clear and is not greasy in application.
Hair Care
- Camellia Seed Oil gives the hair a smooth and silky shine. It can be used when the hair is wet and gently fingered through evenly whilst adding a little extra to the ends. It can also be applied to dry hair and wrapped in foil or a hot towel to make it penetrate the hair shaft faster.
- If hair gets very tangled, massage it through the dry hair before you shampoo and it will be easier to comb out afterwards.
- At any time, a few drops of Camellia Seed Oil can be massaged into the palms and worked through the hair to tame the fly-aways and frizzies.
- Conditions the scalp so use in shampoos and conditioners.
