I absolutely love sea buckthorn oil, I think it is a must-have. This oil has a lot of vitamins A and C as the plant itself. I use it in masks, creams, just by itself, to heal dry, irritated skin, and to moisturize.
I find this oil very valuable for dry mature skin. It is not heavy or greasy and absorbed well.
I made a facial oil using some of this (5% dilution) and it is beautiful. The colour of this oil is incredible!
Great oil for mature skin.
Love using this as part of my oil cleansing
