Camellia oil is also known as tea seed oil is cultivated from the seeds of the flowering Camellia Oleifera plant - this is the same plant that is used to cultivate tea all over the world. The oil is highly nutritious and is similar in its functionality to jojoba oil - it penetrates quite rapidly into the skin. The oil is moisturising and contains antioxidants which mean that it is useful in anti-ageing formulations where it can help fight against free radicals. It is rich in oleic acid and also in Vitamin E. Camellia oil is also frequently used in haircare and nail care products.

Camellia Seed oil is a popular ingredient in skincare products due to its moisturising and anti-inflammatory properties. It is also used in hair care products to help nourish and strengthen hair.

Camellia Seed oil is abundant in vitamins A, B, C, D, and E, which provide nourishment to your skin, as well as a velvety smooth finish. Camellia seed oil has a molecular makeup and weight similar to sebum, which is your skin’s natural oil, ensuring a significantly better and quicker absorption into the deeper layers of the epidermis. It’s a particularly good choice for acne-prone skin as its lightweight texture doesn’t clog pores and doesn’t leave a greasy residue behind

Camellia oleifera trees are highly sustainable, as they grow quickly and do not require pesticides or fertilisers. The production of camellia seed oil also generates minimal waste, as the seeds are a byproduct of the tea industry.

Camellia oil is an excellent emollient for keeping skin and hair moist and supple. Approximately 82% of its fatty acids are composed of Oleic fatty acid (Omega-9), a remarkable transdermal carrier and very effective in enhancing skin and hair's ability to retain moisture. This oil contains over 98% long-chain fatty acids, such as Omega 3 and 6 — of these, 80% is oleic acid, which is similar to olive and macadamia nut oils.

Camellia Oil an important source of plant collagen and squalene, the latter being an essential part of the skin’s hydration and protection system. The production of squalene tends to decrease as we age, which makes us more prone to hyperpigmentation, irritation, and other pesky skin conditions.
