Frequently asked questions
What is Camellia Kissi oil?
It is the fixed oil from the seeds of Camellia kissi (INCI: Camellia Kissi Seed Oil), cold pressed and refined, of Chinese origin. It is a pale, light oil with a mild odour that absorbs quickly and leaves a soft, non-greasy finish.
How do the camellia oils differ?
All are light, refined seed oils from Chinese camellia species. Oleifera (tea seed oil) is the classic all-rounder, Japonica is the traditional tsubaki hair oil, Sinensis comes from the tea plant itself, and Kissi is a lesser-known species with a similar light, silky feel.
Can it be used in food?
