Camellia Oil Is the Superhero Ingredient Suitable for Every Skin Type

When we talk about oils in skin care products, two things happen. First, we tend to focus on big-name oils like coconut, jojoba and olive. Second, a lot of people simply turn their head the second they hear the word oil because they assume it isn't ideal for their skin type. (This is especially true for those with oily, acne-prone or sensitive complexions who've had bad reactions to heavier oils.)

Camellia oil is different. Extracted from the beautiful blossom that grows mainly in Southeast Asia, it's a highly nourishing ingredient that's both extremely hydrating and lightweight. It's what's referred to as a dry oil, which means your skin absorbs it quickly without leaving a thick, slick, oily feel behind. Plus, it's rich in vitamins, antioxidants and essential fatty acids. What more could you ask for?

So we rounded up the best camellia oil products to add to your skin care regimen.
