Vitamin C: Sea buckthorn contains one of the highest natural levels of vitamin C—up to 12 times more than oranges. Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that brightens the complexion and protects the skin from free radical damage and environmental stressors.

Vitamin E: Both a vitamin and an antioxidant, vitamin E naturally moisturizes skin, fortifies the skin’s barrier function and helps to prevent the breakdown of collagen and elastin—essential components to maintaining healthy, youthful-looking skin. It has also been shown to promote wound healing, skin repair and cell regeneration.


Omega-3 and Omega-6 Fatty Acids: These essential fatty acids play a vital role in maintaining the skin’s lipid barrier, which helps to lock in moisture and protect the skin from harmful external substances like toxins, bacteria and pollution. They also help with promoting collagen production to help maintain the skin’s elasticity and firmness.

Omega-7 and Omega-9 Fatty Acids: These fatty acids are natural moisturizers that help to keep skin hydrated and supple. They also have anti-inflammatory properties that can help soothe skin from inflammation and skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis and acne.

Minerals: Rich in a variety of minerals including potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron and phosphorus, sea buckthorn helps to keep skin hydrated, promote skin renewal and improve skin tone and texture.

Carotenoids: Sea buckthorn contains carotenoids like beta-carotene, lycopene and zeaxanthin. These compounds provide protection to the skin from sunburn, skin aging, and inflammation. They also support the skin’s natural barrier function to lock in moisture and improve hydration.

Flavonoids: Flavonoids such as quercetin and kaempferol have antioxidant properties that fight free radicals and anti-inflammatory properties that help soothe the skin.

Honey

Honey has been used in skincare for thousands of years, as far back as ancient civilizations in Egypt and Greece. It involves a complex process where bees collect, transform and evaporate nectar from flowers. The resulting honey is nutrient-rich and offers many benefits to the body when consumed directly or applied topically.
