@thehapawellness: The one oil a geisha never went without! 🌺 In japan it’s called tsubaki or camellia oil. It’s been used for centuries, and geisha relied on it for almost everything: → smoothing and shining their long hair, and keeping elaborate updos in place → melting off heavy white makeup at the end of the night → softening skin especially the hands, cuticles and dry ends → conditioning boxwood combs, which were fed oil to glide through hair It didn’t stop at beauty either. Samurai’s used it to protect their katana blades from rust. Here’s why it works so well on skin: camellia oil is about 80% oleic acid, a fatty acid your skin’s own oil (sebum) contains too. so it doesn’t sit on top of your face or body. It sinks in fast, feels light, and your skin seems to recognize it. how i use it: 🌺 2–3 drops pressed in as the last step of my routine 🌺as a first cleanse to melt off sunscreen and makeup 🌺 as the glide for my hapa method facial lifting 🌺 drops through my ends before bed If you only have room for one oil on your shelf, make it this one. the one I use in my link in bio! . . . . . #jbeauty #japanese #beauty #skincaretips #skincare
