The Luxury of Beauty Oils: A Review of Beautyoils.co's Camellia Oil

Let me tell you, I have been dying to try one of the many oils by Beautyoils.co. It's all these guys sell- various oils for, well, duh.. beauty! Hemp seed oil, pomegranate oil, you name it. So, when they sent me a bottle of their camellia oil to check out, ya best bet I was nothing less than PUMPED.

I've heard of camellia oils, flowers, and extracts as an ingredient in many moisturizers and face masks, but I've never actually used a camellia oil before. Furthermore, I didn't know all that much about camellia oil. I just know that I sorta mix it up with chamomile (they're two completely different things).

Camellia oil comes from the beautiful flower of the same name. Native to Japan, the Japanese initially starting using this as a cooking oil. Eventually, they began to notice the many beauty benefits this oil holds. It's rich in omega 9, polyphenols, vitamins, and plant proteins. Furthermore, the molecular structure of this gorgeous oil is similar to the skin, making it very easy to penetrate and absorb- without clogging the pores.

I love Beautyoils.co's simple yet chic label design- see the pic below. Every one of their fancy little numbers come in a bottle that looks exactly like this. No bullshit, all pure. Love it. Plus, their camellia oil is cold pressed, making it less processed and 100% camellia. The only thing I dislike is that this 1 oz bottle actually comes in plastic. It is dark amber, which is important to prevent early spoilage- however, plastic is more porous.

Either way, I do like this stuff. Beautyoils.co encourage its customers to either use the oil straight, or mix it up with a few other oils to create your own little beauty oil- how fun! Love this idea. I've been experimenting with a few different varieties, mixing a few drops of the camellia oil with grapeseed oil and rosehip oil. I apply this concoction to my face and neck every night and wake up with the most luxurious glow! Also, beautyoils.co offers their oils in a variety of sizes, making it super convenient and basically like a one-stop shop to create your own DIY beauty oil lab. ::drool.

Overall, I love this product and I am so excited to try other oils by beautyoils.co- the pomegranate and hemp seed oils are on the top of my list.
