Hi Klevies! Sea Buckthorn known as The Holy Fruit from The Himalayas has been popular for its health benefits and skincare for thousands of years! So, what is actually Sea Buckthorn?
Sea Buckthorn is a plant often used as a treatment for skin and health issues. Unlike its name, Sea Buckthorn actually grows on land and is often found in Europe and Asia, definitely not some kind of sea plant. Every part of this plant starting from the leaves, flowers and fruits have their own important benefits.
Sea Buckthorn leaves and flowers are believed to be able to treat joint inflammation, gout, several stomach and digestive problems, and skin infections. The leaves of Sea Buckthorn are also consumed as tea since they are rich in vitamins, antioxidants, amino acids, fatty acids, and minerals to lower cholesterol levels, boost immunity, control blood pressure, and prevent high blood pressure.
Not only for health benefits, but Sea Buckthorn is also a rich source of vitamins and antioxidants that provide skin benefits for the skin. If you’re curious what skin benefits Sea Buckthorn has to offer, keep on reading!
Rich In Vitamins
The orange colour of Sea Buckthorn represents oranges and carrots which are undoubtedly rich in vitamin C. Just like the other orange fruits and veggies, Sea Buckthorn also contains vitamin C, and better, the Vitamin C in Sea Buckthorn is 15x higher than oranges!
Known as a Superfruit, the rich amounts of Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and beta carotene in Sea Buckthorn are capable of increasing skin collagen production which supports skin elasticity and makes your skin look healthier, younger, and brighter.
Maintain Skin Moisture
Sea Buckthorn is a packed source of omega 3,6,7 and 9 that is excellent to maintain skin moisture and strengthen the outermost layer of the skin barrier to lock skin hydrations and protect your skin from some kinds of stressors that can potentially cause skin problems such as acne, breakouts, etc. With its pleasing capabilities to hydrate the skin, Sea Buckthorn is highly recommended for anyone with dry and dull skin types.
Boost Skin Regenerations
High in antioxidants, Sea Buckthorn can boost skin collagen production to disguise fine lines and wrinkles. It also contains an adequate amount of Vitamin E which works well to provide an anti-inflammatory effect and fade out acne scars. Fun fact, ancient Tibetans are known to often use Sea Buckthorn to treat severe skin problems from eczema to sunburns.

If you have acne-prone skin or have been struggling with acne for quite some time, this is good news for you because the anti-inflammatory and antibacterial agents of Sea Buckthorn plays a good role to reduce inflammation and preventing new acne from coming to your skin!
