Sea Buckthorn
Sea Buckthorn thrives in extreme conditions. It grows high on the Tibetan Plateau and in the deserts of Mongolia where it has evolved a unique set of phytochemicals to protect if from the brightest ultraviolet light we are ever likely to see. And those chemicals can work wonders for our skin.
Sea Buckthorn contains more Omega-7 fatty acid than any other plant source – much more. And omega-7 fatty acid is essential for tissue regeneration and healthy skin. You can get it from salmon (not an oil you would want to put on your face!) and much smaller amounts are available in full-fat milk and macadamia nuts. But for a healthy dose of the super anti-aging benefits of Omega-7, sea buckthorn is the way to go.
It also contains high concentrations of vitamins A, C and E, and other anti-oxidants and anti-inflammatories that keep skin youthful while reducing breakouts and relieving acne and dry skin conditions.

Using Sea Buckthorn
Not surprisingly, sea buckthorn has become a favorite skin care item. Even Russian cosmonauts use it in space to protect against radiation damage. You will find it in moisturizing creams, sun blocks and anti-aging products.
At Gaelle Organic, we use sea buckthorn in the illuminating serum and rejuvenating masque of Treatment Superieure.
