My Skin Journey So Far
Like many people, I have had my little and big share of skin struggles. From winter dryness to the occasional breakouts on the wrong occasions, I was constantly hunting for a product that could address these pesky dermal issues without overwhelming my skin. After hearing about camellia seed oil from a friend, I decided to give it a shot. The idea of incorporating a centuries-old beauty secret into my routine felt both luxurious and practical as well. Little did I know, this humble oil would soon become my must-go-to dermal care product.
What Is Camellia Seed Oil?
With an intriguing history, Camellia seed oil, often referred to as Teanut oil or Tsubaki oil in Japan, is a derivative of the seeds from the Camellia plant. Native to Eastern parts of Asia, the beauty-enhancing properties of this oil have made it popular across the globe. Japanese Geishas (known for their porcelain-like skin and glossy hair) loved to use this oil.
My Experience With Its First Application
Texture was the first thing I noticed about camellia seed oil. Unlike heavier greasy emollients, it felt feather-light and absorbed almost instantly. I started using just a few drops at night after cleaning my face. The next morning, my skin felt incredibly soft and looked more hydrated. Encouraged by the results, I began using it regularly.
Long-Term Skin Benefits Of Camellia Seed Oil
Camellia seed oil has been a game-changer for me. Using it consistently for a few weeks, its benefits began to show in the true sense. Here are a few noticeable ones:
Hydration Without Greasiness: The moisture levels of my skin improved dramatically. I no longer experienced flaky or tight skin even during winter peak season.
Improved Skin Texture: After applying it for a few weeks, the fine lines around my eyes and mouth seemed less visible.
Natural Glow: Over time, my skin felt smoother and looked more radiant. I felt less need for heavy makeup to hide dark circles around my eyes.
Calmed Irritation: On days when my skin felt irritated or inflamed, a few drops of camellia seed oil worked wonders to soothe redness and discomfort.
Various uses: I discovered that this oil was not just great for my face but even for cuticles, the ends of my hair, my face, and even as a body moisturizer. Needless to say, I used it in various ways to get the maximum benefit.
