Sea buckthorn, also known as Hippophae Rhamnoides is a small berry that is grown on a shrub, which is mainly found in the cold mountains of Asia and Europe (Himalayas). It has been used for medicinal purposes for thousands of years. You can extract two kinds of sea buckthorn oil from the plant. Fruit oil is extracted from the fruit pulp and seed oil from the dark seeds of the berry. Both of these oils offer some fantastic skin benefits.
The seed oil contains omega 3, omega 6 and omega 9 making it ideal for dry and ageing skin. While the fruit oil contains omega 6 and omega 7, which helps in repairing damaged skin. It works to soothe inflammation and irritated skin. Either way, the sea buckthorn is a boon for all skin enthusiasts.

Sea buckthorn is a skin ingredient worth the keep as it comes heavily laden with at least 190 nutrients and phytonutrients. The vitamin C content in the sea buckthorn alone will blow your mind away as it contains about 12 times more than that of an orange fruit.

And if it wasn’t enough, it also comes in heavy doses of omega 3,6 and 9. And sea buckthorn also prides itself in being the only plant on earth that contains the omega 7. These fatty acids come with anti-inflammatory properties and are known to give some fantastic results when it comes to your skin.
To top it all, sea buckthorn comes jam-packed with 60 potent antioxidants and 20 minerals, and vitamins B1, B2, K, C, A and E. It is believed to hold three times more Vitamin A than carrots and a considerable amount of Vitamin E.

This leads to a decrease in acne breakout as well as prevents it from future breakouts. The use of Sea buckthorn oil helps to fade acne scars, heals blemishes and give you a smooth skin texture.
