Camilla Oil - A Natural Japanese Product
I just got back from Japan and as I was unpacking the cosmetics I had brought back to New York that can only be bought in Japan, I realized I had a good idea for an article. The Japanese produce an oil called Camilla Oil; the fruit from which it is made only grows in Japan. The fruit is squeezed in a press just like olives are, to extract the oil and is used in cosmetics. The packaged oil itself can only be bought in Japan. It is called Chalcone Tsubaki Oil. The oil is used as only one of the ingredients in the brand of Shiseido cosmetics. They have a telephone number in Japan that can be called to order the items which contain the oil, because these items are not sold outside Japan. One of its major properties is that, because there are absolutely no additives and/or preservatives, even after one year, there is no oxidation. And hardly any odor at all.In ancient Japan, Camilla Oil was first used by the farmers who grew the fruit as a remedy for insect bites.

Camilla Oil is very close to the composition of the oil produced by human skin, so it’s an excellent choice for hydration. People who do a lot of traveling have found that applying the oil during the flight helps to prevent the dry skin, usually caused by spending too much time in a pressurized airplane cabin. It is also very good for the roots of the hair. There has been a trend lately in Japan to dye one’s hair. A trend that has left many women with severely damaged hair.
Camilla Oil can be used to help the scalp and the new hair growth to get back to its natural shine. In ancient Japan, Camilla Oil was first used by the farmers who grew the fruit as a remedy for insect bites. They soon noticed that it also protected the skin from sunburn in the summer and in the winter it was very useful against the dryness and chapping that occurs on the skin by exposure to the cold and the wind.
People who do a lot of skiing find it very useful in counteracting windburn. Today it cannot be advertised as a skin protector/sunblock because it actually has no SPF rating. Such lotions must have various chemicals to achieve a SPF number. The higher the number, the more chemicals must be used. And one of Camilla Oil’s chief attractions is that it is a totally natural product. There are people who actually cook with it. Tempura with Camilla Oil is actually a very expensive meal! You can buy Camilla Oil at online shops all over the internet.

question..
Hello, I have heard that Camilla Oil actually stimulates hair growth. That massaging the scalp with this oil can help hair to grow faster. Do you by chance know if that is true? Thanks "0)April 2, 2008 - 11:00pm
