Camellia Saponin: A Natural Surfactant for Skincare & Cleaning Products

Camellia Saponin

Camellia Saponin is a naturally derived, biodegradable surfactant

extracted from the seeds of the Camellia oleifera plant. Known for its mild cleansing properties and foaming ability, it offers a plant-based alternative to synthetic surfactants commonly used in personal care and household products.

At HOWTIAN, we produce high-quality Camellia Saponin tailored for clean-label skincare, haircare, and eco-friendly cleaning applications. As part of our commitment to natural innovation, this ingredient supports brands in developing safe, effective, and sustainable formulations that meet modern consumer expectations.
