A Botanical Treasure
Native to East Asia, the red camellia (Camellia japonica) is more than just a beautiful flower. Its petals and seeds contain a unique combination of fatty acids, antioxidants, and vitamins that work synergistically to rejuvenate the skin. Unlike harsh synthetic ingredients, red camellia extract provides gentle yet effective care, making it suitable for even the most sensitive complexions.
Deep Hydration & Barrier Repair
Red camellia oil is rich in oleic acid, a omega-9 fatty acid that mimics the skin’s natural lipids. This allows it to penetrate deeply, replenishing moisture and reinforcing the skin’s protective barrier. Unlike some occlusive moisturizers that sit on the surface, camellia oil nourishes without clogging pores, making it ideal for both dry and acne-prone skin.
Soothing & Anti-Inflammatory Properties
Irritation and redness are common concerns, especially for those with sensitive or reactive skin. Studies suggest that red camellia extract possesses natural anti-inflammatory compounds that calm irritation and reduce redness. This makes it an excellent choice for soothing conditions like rosacea or post-treatment sensitivity.
