The details

Hippophae Rhamnoides Seed Oil comes from the seeds of the seabuckthorn plant. Seabuckthorn is rich in phytosterols, carotenoids, Vitamins A, C, and E. This gives it strong antioxidant properties that can help soothe and protect your skin from oxidative damage. The seeds of seabuckthorn are rich in fatty acids. These include linoleic acid (~30-34%), oleic acid (17%), and palmiteic acid (35%). Palmitoleic acid has been shown to help soothe inflammation and promote wound healing. It is also naturally found in the fat of our skin.
