Sea buckthorn fruit oil

Description

Sea Buckthorn Fruit Oil is a luxurious, nutrient-dense oil cold-pressed from the pulp of the orange-red berries of the Hippophae rhamnoides shrub. This oil is rich in palmitoleic acid (Omega 7)—a rare fatty acid that supports wound healing, skin regeneration, and anti-aging. It is also high in beta-carotene, giving it its deep reddish-orange color, and is prized for its ability to restore vitality to dull, irritated, or aging skin.
