What is meant by Camellia Oil?

Camellia Oil is not a comestic product, it is a natural an pure oil. It is indispensable to the human skin. It's medical name is "Oleic Oil", which is found in Camellia Oil and is the major component (86%) of this oil. It is not easy to be oxygenated and evaporate. It fits perfectly the human body.

The magic of Camellia Oil

According to resarches conducted by experts in China, Japan, the US and Europe, Camellia Oil is the most easily absorbed by the human skin among the plant oil. It activates and improves people's skin by spreading the oil essence into the deepest skin base.

The process of the metabolism: after we apply Camellia oil on the skin, the oil essence will spread into the layer of skin. Just as the grass turns to look fresh, moist and pretty after watering, so the skin will become moist, fresh and elastic with the supplement of Camellia oil.

The history of Camellia Oil

Camellia Oil has a history of more than 3,000 years in China. It reached its peak in usage in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. According to legend, Empress Dowager Cixi of the Qing Dynasty used Camellia Oil as the body and facial massage oil, keeping her skin smooth and bright.

In the Republican period, MDM Meiling Soong, wife of Chiang Kai Chek, believed firmly in Camellia Oil. She is now living in New York City, aged 103. On her hundred year oil birthday, she told a senior reporter of the New Your Times about the secrets of her skincare. One of them is her nurse using Camellia Oil to do facial and body massage for her every night before sleeping.

Josephine, mistress of Napoleon, also loved Camellia Oil. She planted only Camellia in her garden. A gardener was specially assigned to extract the oil from the flower seeds which was then used as the skin lotion for Josephine. People found Josephine as pretty as the flower when the garden was full of the luxuriant Camellia. Therefore, people called her "the Princess of Camellia" .

Many movie stars in Hollywood also perceive Camellia Oil as their skin protector since the pureness of the Oil is of great benefit to their skin.

Women in today's Japan are crazy about Camellia Oil. There is at least one Camellia Oil Club with huge membership in each province or city in Japan. Camellia Oil in Japan originated in the Tang Dynasty. An emperor of the Tang Dynasty gave Camellia seeds to a certain Japan official as gift. People in Japan discovered the magic power of Camellia Oil since then.

My opinion:

This came highly recommended by a colleague at work, and she actually swears by it, she uses on her face, body and hair. Since she keeps on raving about this product, I got myself a bottle, and actually felt guilty for not liking it.....

This oil smells exactly like cooking oil and the scent lingers on for over an hour, seriously I just can't stand smelling like cooking oil.....

I don't know about my readers, but I've never heard about camellia oil before this colleague started to rave about it, after doing some research, there's actually another well known name for this oil and is call Tsubaki (ring some bells?).

根據產品說明：

何為金花油？

金花油不是化妝品，更不是奢侈品，它是一種天然純正的油，人體皮膚中不可缺少的油。醫學稱油為＂油酸中性脂肪＂。山茶花油中含的百分之八十六以上油酸便是它。它的特質是不易氧化，不易乾燥，不易蒸發。它非常穩定而且與人體的需要奇妙地吻合。

金花油最神奇奧妙之處

根據中國／日本及歐美的美容專家研究下來，山茶花油比其他植物油更容易為皮膚接受。它更易滲透表皮及內層，令皮膚增殖／活潑，促進新陳代謝的功效也更顯著。皮膚新陳代謝的過程－－從基底層／棘層／角質層，塗抹了山茶花油後，層層滲透／滋潤／更生，有如源頭活水，涓涓滴滴的把你調理成水蔥兒式的新鮮／自然／煥發／靚麗。

山茶花油的歷史在中國己有三千多年了。在明朝／清朝尤其盛行於皇室中人。相傳慈禧太后／珍妃便是早晚都由宮女以山荼花油按摩全身，來保持如羊脂玉一般的肌膚。到了民國時期，蔣介石夫人宋美齡女士，更是山荼花油的愛用者。今年已一百零三歲，身歷三個世紀，目前隱居在美國紐約長島的名女人，在她一百歲時，曾對＂紐約時報＂的資深女記者透露地養顏妙方：一是每晚臨睡前由特別護士為她做全面及全身的按摩，用的正是山茶花油。二是灌腸。

再說到拿破崙的情人約瑟芬，她在城堡中只種植一種山茶花，請專人將山荼花榨油為她護膚，滿園山茶花盛開時，美人靚麗如花，傾國傾城，世人稱她為山茶公主。

此外，荷里活的女星，注重皮膚保養，熱愛採用天然山茶花油的美女多不勝數。

今天的日本女人對山茶花油更狂熱，每一洲省縣市都有椿油俱樂部，這椿油便是山茶花油。相傳唐朝時，日本派遺唐使進貢禮品，中國皇宮禮尚往來，以山茶樹的種籽相贈，於是日本有了山茶樹。終於日本女人也發現了山茶花油的珍貴處，愛之若狂。

我的意見：

小妹從未聽過金花油這個名字，但由於有位同事勁讚，又說可用於全身，包括面，身和頭髮也可以用，所以就買了瓶來試。

這瓶油的功效好不好我不知道，因為只用了一次就放棄了，這瓶油的味道很像煮食油，而且那個煮食油的味道會於身體上維持一段時間。這個產品再好，小妹也無副消受...
