Naked Bear Blue Tansy Oil
$18.00
Blue Tansy Face Oil pairs Moroccan blue tansy with Japanese camellia and squalane.
That blue isn't a dye. It's azulene, a compound that forms when Tanacetum annuum flowers are steam-distilled, and it's why blue tansy has been prized for centuries as one of the gentlest botanicals you can put on skin.
WHY THESE THREE
Camellia seed oil has been the cornerstone of Japanese skincare for generations — silky, fast-absorbing, and light enough that it never sits on the surface. Squalane is the closest thing there is to your skin's own oil, so it sinks in instead of slicking. Blue tansy brings the calm.
ALREADY DILUTED, READY FOR YOUR FACE
Most blue tansy you'll find is a raw oil you're expected to blend yourself. This one arrives finished at a skin-safe concentration — no carrier to buy, no math, no guesswork.
BEST FOR
Skin that runs reactive, flushed, dry, or stressed. Good at night, good under makeup, good pressed into the cheeks after a long flight.
HOW TO USE
Warm three or four drops in your palms. Press into clean, slightly damp skin morning or night. Layer under moisturizer, or add a drop to whatever you already use.
WHAT'S IN IT
Camellia Oleifera Seed Oil, Squalane, Tanacetum Annuum Flower Oil. That's the whole list.
Northern Morocco
A cousin of chamomile.
Tanacetum annuum is an annual in the Asteraceae family, grown commercially in the north of Morocco. It's a close relative of German chamomile, which produces the same blue compound when distilled — and which is why blue tansy has the calm, faintly sweet apple note people recognize before they can name it.
The one exception
The only oil we dilute.
Every other Naked Bear oil is a single ingredient at full strength. Blue tansy can't be. Pure blue tansy essential oil is far too concentrated to press onto a face — used neat, it's an irritant, not a treatment.
Most sellers hand you the raw oil and leave the math to you. We do the dilution ourselves, in camellia seed oil and squalane, at a concentration meant for daily facial use. Nothing to blend, nothing to guess at.
Camellia seed oil
Known as tsubaki in Japan, where it's been a beauty staple for centuries. Roughly 80% oleic acid, with a molecular weight close to your own sebum, which is why it absorbs instead of sitting.
Squalane
A stable form of squalene, a lipid your skin already makes — it accounts for around 13% of human sebum. It sinks in rather than slicking.
Blue tansy
The active. Steam-distilled Tanacetum annuum from Morocco, and the reason the bottle is indigo.
