What Else You Need to Know: This scalp oil is inspired by the ancestral Japanese beauty ritual of combing hair with camelia oil for its moisturizing and protective benefits. The oil is formulated with Japanese-sourced camelia oil rich in oleic acid and vitamin E to quickly absorb into hair and skin. This 99 percent naturally derived scalp oil soothes and hydrates dry scalp leaving hair shiny and healthy-looking.
Shu Uemura considers an ingredient to be naturally derived if it is unchanged from its natural state or has undergone processing yet still retains greater than 50 percent of its molecular structure from its original natural source. The remaining constitutes one percent of the formula to ensure its sensorially and preservation.
Fragrance Description: This oil has Shu Uemura’s iconic interpretation of the camellia flower composed of grapefruit and green aqueous top notes, subtle camellia in the heart, and delicate vanilla with musk in the base notes.
