Sea Buckthorn Seed Oil is a secret powerhouse in the prestige skincare and cosmetic world. This is 100% food-grade, organic oil. Sea buckthorn is nutrient-packed shrub that grows throughout the world. Sea buckthorn offers a unique mixture of active compounds, including a variety of carotenoids (such as lycopene and zeaxanthin); tocopherols; sterols; vitamins C, B1, B2, B5, B6, and folate; and flavonoids (such as quercetin and kaempferol). It's also one of the very few botanicals that provides a wealth of essential fatty acids, including omega-3s, -6s, -7s, and -9s. It's hard to find pure, unadulterated sea buckthorn oil. The majority of oil found for sale on the internet today is adulterated. Desert Alpine prides itself on providing only the highest-quality, potent and pure botanical extracts in the world!
