Ingredients

camellia oil
for over two centuries, camellia flower seeds have been harvested from the japanese island of toshima, where each seed is handpicked and transformed into a nourishing oil. very rich in essential lipids, camellia oil is one of the most rapidly absorbed oils. traditionally, camellia oil has been used to promote shine and nourish the hair while maintaining the lipid barrier on the skin longer, which promotes skin health and hydration.
how to use essence absolue hair oil
- to use as a styling aid, apply 1 pump to your hands (a little goes a long way) and work through hair from mid-lengths to ends.
- to use as a pre-shampoo treatment, use 3-4 pumps and comb into dry hair before shampooing.
- to use as a conditioning treatment, apply 1 pump each to 4 sections of hair from mid-lengths through ends, and massage into scalp.
- leave overnight and style as normal in the morning.
Stylist Quote
My Pro tip is to use this product as an overnight hydration treatment. Section the hair in 4 to 5 sections depending on density. Add 1 to 2 pumps of the protective oil to each section depending on hair texture. Sleep in it overnight and when you awake your hair is instantly hydrated. This product is so lightweight that it's perfect for all hair textures.

Love the hair oil. Another great product from Shu Uemara. I wish they would send a sample for each item purchased. I want to try them all before purchase since the products are a pretty hefty investment.

Finally, soft hair!
Lovely fragrant oil that leaves my hair feeling so soft. Even the super dry and parched damaged ends feel soft and healthy.
