We don’t often hear much about the sea buckthorn berry in New Zealand, probably because this bright orange berry does not grow well in our climate, and is not imported as a food.
But did you know the juice from these little wee berries contains among the highest amounts of beta-carotene and vitamins C and E, of any fruit or vegetable in the world.
The clever people at Weleda have harnessed the unique properties of sea buckthorn berries, to produce this amazing, fresh and fruity body lotion which provides intensive care and replenishment for skin, particularly in during summer.
Sea buckthorn berries are very rich in unsaturated fatty acids, carotenoids (pro-vitamin A) and vitamin E, which naturally help protect the skin from UV radiation and free-radical damage associated with signs of ageing. It’s also scientifically reputed to have a super-rich cocktail of antioxidants and human health benefits.
This results in a healthy balance of skin oils and moisture in the skin, leaving it smooth and soft to touch.
The natural fragrance of the sea buckthorn essential oils revitalises the senses and leaves skin laced in a sweet summer fruity scent. RRP $29.90
It’s a definite ‘Product Love’
