What is sea buckthorn?

The seabuckthorns (Hippophae L.) are deciduous shrubs in the genus Hippophae, family Elaeagnaceae. It is also referred to as “sea buckthorn”, seabuckthorn, sandthorn, seaberry, “sacred fruit”, or “liquid gold” when referring to its oil and juice).

What is the rare Omega-7?

Omega-7, also known as Palmitoleic acid, is a monounsaturated fatty acid found in some animal, vegetable, and marine oils. It is a rather rare omega fatty acid that only recently has gained global exposure for its benefits and unique qualities. Omega-7 is present in all body tissues and more particularly in skin and fat tissue. Sea buckthorn berries offer the most potent botanical source of Omega-7 currently known and are garnering wide-spread attention as a “Miracle Berry” with many health advantages.

Omega-7 fatty acid promotes healthy and moisturized skin, hair, and nails at a cellular level. Our tissue actually contains Omega-7 and its restoration, whether topical or internally, nourishes and balances these tissues for a youthful and shiny glow.

After reading the above info, and more, on the SeabuckWonders site I was interested in trying out the products when the offer was put forth.  I received the Natural Skin Care Program Kit above (ARV $73.84) earlier this summer and have been using it consistently these past few weeks in lieu of my usual regimen.

The kit contains:

  • Sea Buckthorn Body Lotion
  • Sea Buckthorn Facial Cream
  • Sea Buckthorn Facial Cleanser
  • Sea Buckthorn Hydrating Serum

My favorite of the products is probably the Sea Buckthorn Facial Cream – it has Omega 3, 6, 9 and of course 7 in it.  I don’t know how the product would perform without all that omega richness in it but I like that there is – it makes me feel like I’m doing something pretty powerful for my skin (and I am!)  The Sea Buckthorn Hydrating Serum is awesome, though I feel like when I use it with the Facial Cream combined it’s too much on my skin – so sometimes I’ll use the Hydrating Serum on it’s own at night (it’s amazing for overnight!)

You can use the Store Locator link on the site to find a location near you, or you can shop online for Sea Buckthorn products from SeabuckWonders on their site.
