## Sea Buckthorn Berry Oil for Skin

Sea buckthorn berry oil is a rich, orange oil from the berry pulp of Hippophae rhamnoides.
Its thick feel and strong natural color make small additions useful in facial oil
and cream blends. This is berry-pulp oil rather than sea buckthorn seed oil; choose
it with the texture and color of your finished product in mind.

## Benefits and uses

 * Rich berry-pulp oil for skin-care blends
 * Naturally orange and thick; use sparingly
 * Different from sea buckthorn seed oil

## Frequently asked questions

### Will it stain?

It can tint skin and fabric orange. Dilute it and let it absorb before dressing.

### Is berry oil the same as seed oil?

No. Berry oil comes from the orange pulp and is deeply coloured. Seed oil is paler
and lighter.

### Why is it expensive?

The berries are small and thorny to pick, and the pulp gives only a few percent 
of oil.

of the fruit and has a different composition and appearance. The orange color can
stain fabrics.
