    Tsubaki (Camellia) Oil 40ml

    For hair, face and body

    Derived from the beautiful Camellia Japonica (Tsubaki) wildflower grown on the volcanic island of Izu Oshima, pure Tsubaki oil has been loved by Japanese women for centuries for its light, dry feel and its unique ability to deeply penetrate, leaving a luminous, soft finish on hair and skin.

    It is also our favourite oil treatment for its ability to deliver well-nourished and moisturised, soft yet strong, shiny lustrous hair.

    The incredibly soft Silk Noil Hair Towel made from pure silk fibres will condition, soften and detangle your hair while it dries. Silk noil jersey is a minimally processed 100% pure silk knit with natural stretch and a nubbly texture which is better able to absorb water than flat, shiny mulberry silk fabrics.

    Regular high-absorbency cotton or microfibre hair towels absorb and strip the natural oils from the hair, leaving your hair over-dried and frizzy. Silk will only wick away excess water, leaving the natural oils to remain.

    Silk contains a natural bioactive protein called sericin which helps moisture retention in the skin and hair. Your dried hair will be glossy, stronger, smooth, soft and well-nourished.

    Our Colour Protection Shampoo and Conditioner will keep your colour as fresh as the day you coloured, and leave your hair feeling soft, hydrated and refreshed.

    Filled with potent botanicals including Pomegranate Extract, which provides intensive conditioning and Grape Seed Oil which instantly moisturises, our shampoo and conditioner will leave your hair looking and feeling like you just stepped out of the salon.

    If you are colouring your hair, you need to care about your shampoo and conditioner. Non-colour safe products can strip colour from your hair.

    The Shade’s Colour Protection Shampoo and Conditioner will help your colour last longer and leave your hair feeling silky, hydrated and shiny.
