Japan-Grown Camellia Oil in Each 150 g Tube: Camellia oil grown in Japan is our shine ingredient. The gold seal on the tube points to it, and it helps your hair look glossy.

8 Amino Acids Plus Hyaluronic Acid and Shea Butter: Serine, glycine, glutamic acid, alanine, lysine, arginine, threonine and proline join hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid, a moisture-holding ingredient, and shea butter. These are our moisturizing ingredients for dry-feeling hair.

1 Dimethicone Silicone for Dryer and Sunlight Heat Protection: Dimethicone is a silicone that coats the hair surface. We include it to help protect your hair when you use a dryer or step into the sun.

1-Step Leave-In Use on Dry or Towel-Dried Hair: You apply our cream to dry or towel-dried hair and leave it in. There is no rinsing, so it fits easily into your routine.

Benefits

Shiny, healthy-looking hair, right down to the tips: Every 150 g tube is made to repair damaged hair and leave it moist and shiny to the tips. Japan-grown camellia oil adds gloss at the ends, so your hair looks healthy and you feel ready to wear it down.

Skip the rinse and finish in 1 quick step: Apply our cream to dry or towel-dried hair and leave it in. There is no rinsing, so it fits into 1 simple step of your routine, and you walk out the door feeling finished and put together.

Softer, smoother hair with a rich cream feel: In our rich cream, camellia oil, shea butter and 4 more oil-based ingredients wrap each strand in a smooth layer. Hair feels softer, with less dryness and frizz, and your fingers glide through it.

Hydrated-feeling hair backed by 8 amino acids: Hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid, 8 amino acids, BG, betaine and sodium PCA give our cream its moisture-conditioning side, from the first squeeze to the last. Your hair feels moisturized and hydrated, and dry ends feel cared for.

Less worry about dryer heat and sunlight on your hair: Our cream includes dimethicone, a silicone that coats hair to help shield it from dryer heat and sunlight. Blow-dry and step outside with 1 less thing to worry about, knowing your ends have a protective layer.

Made in Tokyo, Japan, with Japan-grown camellia oil: We make this 150 g cream in Japan, and the gold seal on our tube marks the domestic camellia oil inside. You get a hair cream with a clear Japanese origin, and that gives you confidence every time you open the cap.

150 g of rich cream in one squeeze tube: We fill each squeeze tube with 150 g of rich cream that blends oils, shea butter, camellia oil, hyaluronic acid and amino acids. It is a generous amount for a leave-on cream, so you can work it through to the tips with confidence.

How to Use

Start with dry or towel-dried hair.

Squeeze the cream from the 150 g tube into your palm.

Smooth the cream through your hair, focusing on the tips.

Leave it in and style as usual.

Who Is This For

The Everyday Heat Styler: Your mornings start with a towel, a dryer, and maybe a hot iron, and you want your ends to look smooth and glossy when you walk out the door. Thin liquids and tiny bottles often run out before your routine does. That's why we made a 150g squeeze tube of rich cream with Japan-grown camellia oil, shea butter, and hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid (a water-loving ingredient). Work it through towel-dried hair, and the dimethicone, a silky coating ingredient, helps shield strands from heat while the cream adds a moist, glossy finish to the tips. If you like generous, easy care for dry hair, this cream was made with you in mind.

Product Story

In Tokyo, Japan, we set out to make a hair cream for ends that daily dryers, sunlight and styling leave looking dull. Japanese hair-care makers have spent decades using camellia oil for shine, so we built Merfini Shiny Hair Cream around Japan-grown camellia oil. We added shea butter, hyaluronic acid and 8 amino acids for a moisturized feel, and dimethicone to help shield hair from heat. We made it a leave-in cream for dry or towel-dried hair, so there is no rinsing, and we filled each squeeze tube with 150 g. Today, it is still a rich, simple cream that leaves ends looking moist and shiny.
