What Is Sea Buckthorn Oil?
Sea buckthorn, aka Siberian pineapple, does not actually come from the sea as the name suggested. It is a flowering shrub or tree that produces these cold-pressed berries.
The plant is grown worldwide, namely in Europe and Central Asia. The fruit itself carries 10x more vitamin C than orange and ranks third in plants with the highest amount of vitamin E.
Benefits of Sea Buckthorn Oil For Skin & Hair
- Sea buckthorn oil contains linoleic acid, which helps to regulate hydration levels without throwing skin off balance as it is naturally found in the sebum.
- It prevents trans-epidermal water loss and thus aids in the skin maintaining its lipid barrier.
- The antioxidants and vitamins in this plant oil improve skin tone and fade any post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, improving overall skin tone, texture, and elasticity.
- The fatty acids and vitamins are also power players in reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
- Rich in both alpha- and beta-carotene, vitamin A, vitamins B1, B2, and B6, vitamin C, vitamin E, fatty acids and flavonoids, Omega 3, 6, 9 and rarest Omega 7 and about 190 bioactive compounds making it a great oil to supply your skin with nutrients.
- Since it can have regular oil in the skin, it can do the same for hair and scalps to eliminate excess oil without drying the hair out.
- Sea Buckthorn oil has a dark orange hue, and the only way to use it is by diluting it with carrier oil.
