OSHIMA TSUBAKI

Oshima Tsubaki’s roots trace back to Izu Oshima, where camellia trees grow naturally. The business began in 1927, and the company was established as Oshima Tsubaki Co., Ltd. in 1977. Today, the headquarters is in Minato-ku, Tokyo, expanding hair and skin care centered on camellia oil under the idea of being a “Camellia Guardian Company.”

Its signature item is the long-selling “Oshima Tsubaki,” a 100% camellia oil presented without fragrance or colorants. It highlights a high content of triolein (olein-rich triglycerides) and is refined with a proprietary approach to reduce odor and heaviness while aiming for oxidation resistance. Multiple sizes are available, including a 120mL option sold via official direct channels.

Alongside the classic oil, the lineup includes “Premium” shampoo and conditioner that pair camellia oil with camellia-derived ingredients. The conditioner is positioned to help repair and smooth the hair. For leave-in care and styling, the hair cream offers mineral-oil-free formulations in different finishes so you can choose by the result you want.

Support is also straightforward: an official website and online store, plus phone and form-based customer contact (weekdays 9:00–17:00, excluding holidays and year-end/New Year). At the same address, the “Oshima Tsubaki Camellia Library” is available on open days. Updates and seasonal news are shared via the official X account.

100% camellia oil, fragrance-free and colorant-free

“Oshima Tsubaki” is 100% camellia oil from camellia seeds. It’s positioned as a multi-purpose oil for hair, scalp, and skin. Sizes such as 40mL, 60mL, and 120mL let you choose what fits your routine.

A proprietary refining approach for comfortable use

Camellia oil can feel heavy or have a noticeable scent. Oshima Tsubaki uses its own refining approach to aim for less odor and heaviness, while also focusing on oxidation resistance so the oil stays pleasant through the last drop.

Premium care with camellia-derived ingredients

The Premium Shampoo and Conditioner combine camellia oil with camellia-derived ingredients, including Tsubaki Ceramide, Camellia Flower Extract, and Camellia Leaf Extract. The shampoo is offered as a non-silicone formula with a fine, gentle lather.

Hair creams made from camellia oil

The Hair Cream is a cream-type leave-in option made from camellia oil, formulated without mineral oil. With Tsubaki Ceramide, it supports repair and helps coat hair for a glossy, more manageable finish. Choose “Moist” or “Smooth” by feel.
