## About
Hold the bottle to a window and it glows like a coal, a deep reddish orange. A single percent in your evening oil is all it takes.This extract is Hippophae rhamnoides, CO2 extracted in Germany from the pulp of wildcrafted berries, not the seed. It contains 30% palmitoleic acid, carotenoids with a high level of beta-carotene, tocopherols and alcohols, with vitamins A, C and E, and 1900 IU of provitamin A per gram. Herbalists have used sea buckthorn berry for millennia, and today it appears in many natural skin care products. Its natural vitamin E gives it a shelf life of well over a year.That color is part of its character: unless it is used in a very weak dilution it can tint your skin, and at 10% it will turn a pillowcase orange. If you want a bronzing oil, this is your choice. It also pairs beautifully with Rose Hip Fruit Extract.DetailsBotanical name: Hippophae rhamnoidesOrigin: Germany, from wildcrafted berriesMethod: CO2 extraction of the fruit pulpContains: 30% palmitoleic acid, carotenoids, tocopherols, vitamins A, C and E; 1900 IU provitamin A per gramColor: deep reddish orangeHow to useAdd it at about 1% to the carrier oil of your choice; stronger dilutions can stain skin and fabric.A drop of ember-colored light for your night oil.
