Seabuckthorn is rich in Vitamins & Omega's
A rich source of vitamins A, C, E and beta carotene, as well as carotenoids and phenolics, such as catechins, gallocatechins and epigallocatechins.
Seabuckthorn oil is also a source of Omega 3, 6, and 9, as well as the lesser known omega 7 fatty acids (40% of Seabuckthorn oil is omega 7 fatty acids), vital to collagen production. Palmetoleic acid, (Omega 7), is a common constituent of adipose tissue as well as a component of skin. It is considered a monounsaturated fat, thought to be high in antioxidants. Having an affinity for the skin, as well as an antioxidant component, it can provide some protection from sun damage, and when applied topically has been shown to increase triglyceride concentration in the lipid barrier of the skin, effectively increasing the protective nature of the stratum corneum. It is said to decrease as we age, potentially making both internal and topical use more important the older we get. It can be used for a variety of skin related issues, including eczema (atopic dermatitis), for the treatment of burns, ulcerations and infections and/or simply everyday use.
Omega 7
Due to the effects that Omega 7 fatty acid has on the stratum cornea of the skin, it have been reported to be beneficial in the prevention of fine lines and wrinkles, often called an anti-ageing agent. There is some research to suggest this fatty acid may have anti-bacterial properties, as well, explaining why individuals use it both internally and topically for the treatment of acne. Omega 7 oils also have an affinity for the mucous membranes of the body, particularly those lining the urogenital and digestive tracts. This is one way in which the juice of the Seabuckthorn berries are said to aid in the prevention and treatment of constipation. They keep the intestinal tract healthy by keeping it moist and mucous secreting, allowing for better absorption of nutrients and healthy flow of wastes.

TESTIMONIALS
Best Acne Solution by Mychelle
Out of all the acne treatments offered by mychelle, this lotion gave me the most noticeable results. I used to have very severe pustules that would rupture all over my face. I still have terrible acne, but the inflammation and amount of pustules have reduced.

Oil Free Grapefruit Cream
I love this stuff. Gets my skin nice and moisturized without making my acne flare up. Unlike other lotions, when I use this at night I don't wake up feeling super oily. And it just smells like grapefruits, which is nice.

LOVE love this!
This cream has worked wonders on both my back and my face. It is very soothing which seems to be the best way for me to combat breakouts (as opposed to drying them out). I agree with the other reviewer that using along with the serum could be more than needed but I prefer the cream to the serum and actually love the smell of the cream and do NOT like the smell of the serum (which reminds me of patchouli or something). This cream has been a part of my regimen for 18 months now and I plan to use it forever!

Very Effective
My oily skin definitely benefits from using both the serum and the moisturizer. The moisturizer feels like it locks in the healing benefits of the serums and my skin stays protected without any heaviness that other moisturizers have me fearing!

Oil Free Grapefruit Cream
I like this cream, although it is somewhat of an overkill if you're using the serum's as well. In addition the scent bothers me. Any chance of coming up with an unscented version? Also, if your skin is already oily, you have to wear make up, it makes your skin too oily. Sometimes I skip this for that reason, especially if my skin is going through a breakout and I'm already using the c-serum and clear skin serum. I truly do love your products and find them very effective but sometimes less is more.
