Sea Buckthorn Oil
Sea Buckthorn Oil is a vibrant, nutrient-rich botanical oil, cold-pressed from the berries of the Hippophae rhamnoides plant, prized for its deeply nourishing properties for both skin and hair.
Naturally rich in essential fatty acids — including the distinctive Omega-7 (palmitoleic acid), alongside Omega-3, 6 and 9 — this oil also contains naturally occurring vitamin E (tocopherols), carotenoids (including beta-carotene and lycopene) and plant sterols. This combination gives the oil its characteristic golden-orange colour and may help support the skin's natural barrier and a healthy-looking, radiant complexion. Exact fatty acid ratios vary depending on whether an oil is pressed predominantly from the berry pulp or the seed.
Sea Buckthorn Oil's lightweight consistency absorbs readily into the skin and is a popular addition to facial oils, serums, creams, balms, hair treatments, soaps and body products, particularly for dry, mature or environmentally stressed skin. In hair care applications, it may help add softness, shine and manageability to dry or damaged hair.
A note on staining: due to its natural carotenoid pigment, Sea Buckthorn Oil may temporarily stain skin, clothing or light-coloured fabric and surfaces. It is commonly used at lower percentages within blends for this reason.
Common Uses: facial oils and serums, moisturisers and creams, hair oils and scalp treatments, soap and body care formulations, lip balms and salves, massage and wellness blends.
Botanical Name: Hippophae rhamnoides (Sea Buckthorn) Oil.
Safety information: for external use only. Generally well tolerated on all skin types; individual sensitivity is uncommon but possible. A patch test is recommended before first use — see the Safety Data Sheet and Ingredient & Allergen Statement in the Product Documents section below for full detail.
