AntioxidantMoisturising
“One of nature's richest sources of skin-protective antioxidants — powerful but use sparingly.”
What it does
Sea buckthorn oil is derived from the berries of the Hippophae rhamnoides shrub. It is one of the most antioxidant-rich plant oils, containing carotenoids (beta-carotene, lycopene), tocopherols, and a rare omega-7 fatty acid (palmitoleic acid). It promotes skin regeneration and wound healing, and is used in concentrated form for eczema, burns, and UV-damaged skin. The deep orange colour can tint the skin at high concentrations.
Benefits
- Extremely high carotenoid and vitamin content protects from oxidative stress
