Description
INCI: Camellia Kissi Seed Oil
Usage
Obtained by cold-pressing the seeds of Camellia Kissi, an evergreen shrub belonging to the same family as the tea plant. Country of origin: Japan. The use of camellia oil in Japan and China has a centuries-old tradition, especially for hair and skin care.
Odorless oil, recommended concentration in cosmetic formulations: 5–90%.
For hair care, oil-based products are applied to damp hair, massaging from roots to ends. Leave on for 20–30 minutes, then rinse with a mild shampoo (when applying a small amount, rinsing can be skipped, especially for very dry hair).
The oil blends well with macadamia or sweet almond oil, making the mixture light and easily absorbed.
It can be used as a cosmetic base or as an additive in daily facial, eye, and body care products.
