ingredient highlight: sea buckthorn oil
When it comes to powerhouse skincare ingredients, few are as vibrant, nutrient-rich, and downright glow-worthy as Sea Buckthorn Oil. This vivid orange oil, pressed from the berries of the sea buckthorn shrub, is a skin-loving multitasker that’s been used for centuries in traditional medicine. And it’s no surprise—it’s loaded with skin-repairing nutrients like omega fatty acids, antioxidants, and vitamins that promote radiant, healthy skin.
At Ästhetik Skincare, we incorporate organic Sea Buckthorn Oil into some of our most nourishing products, including our Reset Cleansing Oil and our bestselling Organic Tinted Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50. Here’s why this botanical deserves a permanent place in your routine.
What Is Sea Buckthorn Oil?
Despite its name, sea buckthorn isn’t from the sea—it’s a thorny shrub that grows in the Himalayas, northern Europe, and coastal regions. The oil is extracted from the berry pulp and seeds, making it one of the only plant sources to contain all four omega fatty acids: omega-3, -6, -7, and -9.
Its rich orange hue comes from a high concentration of beta-carotene, a skin-brightening antioxidant that converts to vitamin A (retinol) in the body—known for smoothing skin tone and boosting collagen production.
Benefits of Sea Buckthorn Oil for Skin
🌿 Deep Hydration Without Clogging Pores
