Properties of Japanese Camellia Seed Oil
Japanese Camellia seed oil is a refined, organic, high-quality cosmetic raw material. The product is certified in accordance with European regulations (2018/848) and the Cosmos standard, confirming its ecological quality. Tsubaki oil is a treasure trove of nutrients:
- Oleic Acid (Omega-9), Linoleic Acid, Palmitic Acid, Stearic Acid – Oleic acid (C18:1) makes up more than 85% of the oil content, allowing it to penetrate the skin deeply, moisturize it, and strengthen its natural protective barrier. As a key component of human sebum, Tsubaki oil is compatible with all skin types, leaving no greasy residue. Linoleic acid, on the other hand, helps restore the skin’s lipid barrier.
- Vitamin E – A powerful antioxidant known as the “vitamin of youth,” it protects the skin from free radicals, reduces wrinkles, and improves skin elasticity.
- Provitamin A – Regenerates the skin, has anti-aging effects, smooths the complexion, and brightens dark spots.
- Squalane – Strengthens the skin’s hydrolipid barrier, provides moisture and protection, and supports the regeneration of both skin and hair.
- Antioxidants (Catechins, Gallic Acid, Tocotrienols) – Protect the skin from oxidative stress, which contributes to premature skin aging.
