SeabuckWonders Sea Buckthorn Seed Oil, Certified 100% Organic, 0.45 FL OZ

Just a disclaimer: I bought and use this for the purpose of skincare use.I bought this product a month or so ago and have been using it religiously every day, morning and night, in my skincare routine. I heard about it from a YouTube beauty guru who said it was good for those who are acne-prone or who have active breakouts because it calms the skin. She uses the oil from the Sibu Beauty brand but decided to go for this one because of the better reviews. I don't regret my decision. I absolutely love this product as of late for multiple reasons. The oil is moisturizing for the face but doesn't leave my combination oily skin greasy. The skin can get greasy if I use any more than 2 small drops (placed in the palm of my hand and rubbed together with the other to warm up) just as with every other oil I've tried (or in general). I also found that it definitely calms down any active breakouts. Every natural product has a pungent smell to it, and this product is not an exception. Even though I never mind stinky products, I had to get used to the smell of this one because I use Shiseido's Ibuki skincare line and Shiseido is a highly perfumed brand, and the mix of scents was overpowering. However, the scent of this oil dissipates as soon as it's absorbed into the skin, and that takes about a minute or so which I spend gently patting the oil into my skin. It does not leave an orange tint to the skin. I will mention that the dropper doesn't screw onto the bottle correctly anymore, but I believe that was my fault because I may have accidentally screwed it on too aggressively and it bent the dropper slightly to the side. All in all, this is a fantastic oil that I'll be using all year round.

I am reviewing this product because it changed everything for me. I have never written a review before but I think it's worth it if I can help other people who have Rosacea. I am 28 years old and have been suffering from mild to severe Rosacea for the past 3 years. I have taken anti-biotics, over the counter vitamins, watched hours of videos, seen about 10 different doctors, bought cookbooks in attempt to change my diet and nothing has shown results like Seabuck Thorn Seed Oil. My biggest problem has been the cysts that form and stay for months, the dry patches of skin that just keep flaking and the raw red look to my cheeks that many people have mistaken for birth marks. It's embarrassing to have skin problems as an adult and I have tried everything to figure out why this has been happening. After receiving it in the mail I started using it every day twice a day. Within days I noticed a dramatic different. The cysts disappeared and my skin was no longer flaking. I have been using it for about 4 months now and my skin has almost completely cleared up. It does take time and if I skip a night I will get pustules the next day. I have started using it only at night now because it is very noticeable when you use it since it's so oily and I'd prefer not to walk around in public looking like I have olive oil all over my face. Some people complain about the smell and that it doesn't absorb well but if you have been suffering from Rosacea like me, those things won't matter to you when it starts working.

This works really well for skin and hair. I think I had mites in my hair because of constant itching but now it's gone when I put a few drops in my hand with shampoo. It also adds a nice texture and thickness to my hair when mixing a few drops in conditioner. The scent isn't too pleasant but it's manageable. I also use a few drops in with my moisturizer day and night and I really can see a difference in my skin. I can't put my finger on what is different but my complexion seems to be more even toned and smooth and I think I can even see that it made these creases on cheek pads diminish considerably, which I am thrilled because I thought perhaps the creases were here to stay due to 25+ years of pulling and pressing cheeks when putting in contacts all these years. Now I'm starting to wonder if other people's reviews are correct, that rosacea and or acne is caused by the demodex mites and the subsequent bacteria and other residues...they leaves behind. The oil is very orange but I have olive skin and am very tan so the oil doesn't appear to make my face orange. I'm also taking biotin supplements so that could also be a contributing factor. I will continue to use the oil once I stop the biotin to see if I get continued results. Nonetheless the oil does stop the scalp itching and or kill demodex mites.

I've been using it at least twice per day. I stopped using some other products since sea buckthorn oil has so many good things for skin. It's helped me to have a more simple, natural skincare.What I like about this seed oil: The consistency, the feel of it, the light scent. It is only slightly tinted. My skin is softer and looks more even toned.

I have problem skin. A touch of rosacea, a touch of regular outbreaks and combination skin. Whatever this stuff is, it worked on an area of patchy under the skin breakouts and redness on my chin that would NOT go away with my usual methods. Trust me when I say I was desperate, so I rubbed a thin layer of this on and the next morning it was just about completely GONE. Thinking this might be a fluke, I tried it later on some other areas with similar results. It seems to work best on things that are already bad. I am still experimenting with using it preventively. I would recommend this pricier organic version because its going on your face and you probably already put enough stuff on your body that is not great for you. It does seem to be a good product. It comes with a glass dropper and a drop or two is all you need, meaning one bottle will last a long time.I had NEVER heard of this oil before, and in fact read about it here for the frist time, and given how well it worked on that troublesome area on my odd skin, I think anyone with rosacea should absolutely try this. I also recommend trying it on different areas of the face for different kinds of breakouts. You might find it works better for some things than others.
