Camellia OleiferaAlso known as: tea oil Camellia
This beautiful species is widely distributed in China and is cultivated extensively there, notable as an important source of edible oil obtained from its seeds and for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. It is found in forests, thickets, banks of streams and foothills at elevations of 500 to 1,300 metres.
It looks much similar to Camellia sasanqua except the dark green, evergreen leaves are a bit larger, three to five inches long and two to three inches wide. Single, white sometimes pink tipped fragrant flowers are produced in mid to late fall, are hermaphrodite (have both male and female organs) and are pollinated by bees. It is a large shrub or small tree which will reach a height of 20 feet at a slow rate with thin, upright, multiple trunks and branches. The crown forms a rounded or oval vase when lower branches are removed.
The seeds of Camellia oleifera can be pressed to yield tea oil, a sweetish seasoning and cooking oil that should not be confused with tea tree oil, an essential oil that originates from the leaves of a different plant, which is used for medical and cosmetic purposes and is toxic when ingested. In tea oil, oleic acid, a monounsaturated fatty acid of the omega 9 type, comprises 88% of the total fatty acid content. Tea oil is also known as "Tea Seed Oil" when sold as cooking oil in supermarkets throughout Australia, New Zealand and the United States.
It can also be used in textile manufacture, soap making and as an illuminant. Camellia oil is also traditionally used to protect Japanese woodworking tools and cutlery from corrosion and is currently sold for that purpose.
Suitable for light (sandy) and medium (loamy) soils, and prefers to be moist and well drained. Also suitable for acid and neutral type soils. It can grow in semi shade (light woodland) or no shade. Grow this elegant shrub in a border or woodland garden, as a specimen, or in a container. USDA zone 6-9 and is frost tender. Germination usually takes 1-3 months.
This offer is for 5 seeds.

long, tan, & handsome
Love this product. Bronzes even the palest of the Irish type. The after sun lotion is AMAZING. I use it anytime after I spend time in the sun - it really helps lock the color in and keep your skin so smooth and lush.
I ease in, I wear it outside for a bit then put on sunblock until I have a good base tan - everyones different, without sunblock you’ll still burn… (since this isn’t sunblock)
Putting it on is my least fav, hate the feeling of it on my hands, will get on everything in a 20 ft radius of you, but once it soaks in you’re good to go. You will smell like coffee for the next few hours, which is nice if you enjoy the scent.

Wonderful smell but man I burned and I followed the instructions used sunblock .. would recommend small amouts of sun daily to build up a great tan .. the after lotion helps with the burn and smells great too .. learning curve definitely..I will be using this differently going forward.. love this stuff

Love the lotion, hate the browning cream
Love the lotion have used multiple bottles. It really does help prolong a suntan. Very moisturizing very nice scent. Like a you know Hawaiian tropical coconut pineapple scent little plumeria in there. But the bronzing cream stinks to high heaven. It was sticky and it was gross so I never used it and I won’t buy it again. Definitely by the lotion, but not the bronzer.

Excellent mineral sunscreen for sensitive skin.
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Set name: Tube - 3 oz.
I’ve been using the Blue Lizard Sensitive Mineral Sunscreen, and it’s become a staple in my routine. As someone with sensitive skin, I really appreciate that it’s fragrance-free and uses zinc oxide, providing great protection without causing any irritation or breakouts. It goes on smoothly, isn't overly greasy, and the water resistance holds up well for outdoor activities. The smart cap technology is a nice touch, too. Highly recommended if you’re looking for effective, non-irritating sun protection.
