Sea Buckthorn Seed Oil by Leven Rose - 100% Pure Organic Unrefined Cold Pressed Anti Aging Acne Treatment for Hair Skin and Nails - 1 oz

For the price, this stuff is absolutely lovely. In just a few weeks I've noticed the difference in my skin. Not saying it's made me look years younger, but it's definitely doing something to make me look more youthful. I'm setting up a subscription as this is my new go to for face, dark spots, lips, hair and nails! Fabulous stuff and it's natural and cruelty free. Perfect!

I love it. I am at the second batch now, and I cannot express how pleased I am with the quality. I use both mornings and evenings and it made such a difference so far.Appreciate the reasonable price too. Highly recommend it. Both service and quality are excellent. Thank you.

I used this oil on my face at nightIt made me look 20 years youngerIt removed wrinkles and puffinessWill buy again

I love this oil. Was recommended by an article online for hair loss so thought I would try it. Its not too greasy doesn't smell of anything and I like using it on my hair. Still waiting to see if it will help with my hair loss.

Unlike most of the reviews her, I don't use this for my face.I'm menopausal and have experienced uncomfortable symptoms like feminine itching caused by declining levels of oestrogen in the body. While doing my research on how to alleviate it, I came across a video in which the presenter recommended using sea buckthorn oil on your lady parts to ease the itching. I must say, since using it it has made a positive difference to my comfort.

This is a beautiful oil thank you very much just wanted to say please be aware there are three types of sea buckthorn oils the fruit one the seed one (which this one is ) and the whole one utilising the fruit and the seed as I’ve read many reviews complaining about oils being wrong or horrible please choose the oil best suited to you

Good

I had amazing results 😍

I bought this oil on a whim because I was looking for a hydrating oil for a facial serum and to help with anti-aging. I began taking more precautions for my skincare as I got a little older and started seeing more fine lines near my eyes and some hyper pigmentation. I browsed Amazon and came across this sea buckhorn oil & decided to try it after reading the great reviews and doing a little research. It arrived quickly and was packaged in bubble wrap to ensure it didn't break. The dropper top is high quality and glass and the bottle is very solid. The oil itself doesn't have much of a smell & is a beautiful reddish-amber color. It isn't too thick & is a thinner oil. I've tried it mixed with other oils & eye cream and it left my skin very soft and moisturized. It didn't feel or look overly greasy. I also added a little on my hair & a burn that is healing on my arm. I accidently burned it while cooking and this oil has helped stop the itching sensation and has helped it fade away more quickly. It is not entirely gone which is expected but it has helped so far. The customer service has also been great. I received a coupon code for a future purchase in my package and a representative from Leven Rose emailed to see if I had any questions or concerns about the oil. They really care about the quality which is important. Overall, I couldn't be happier with my purchase and will tell others about how great this oil is. I recently bought other oils but when it is time to buy more, I will definitely be choosing this company in the future. Thank you for your high quality products!** These opinions are all my own, and I was not influenced in any way to review this product. I am happy to stand by this brand on my own accord!

Updated review, Nov 2nd: I've been using this plus a Vitamin C cream exclusively for over a month now. After about a week, the slight burning I was experiencing stopped. My face is completely normal. Skin is soft, zero redness, no breaking out, no product sensitivity. I've used it under liquid foundation a few times and my makeup looked fantastic and lasted all day. This product is pure gold.Original review from Oct 20th: I've been having a pretty severe issue with redness and pain on the lower half of my face, thanks to having to wear masks all the time and probably because I'm in my 40's. I have purchased so many oils and lotions trying to find a product that did something to help it, but nothing has. Stumbled on this product and decided to buy it. It arrived the next day, so I decided to apply it before bed since I had read another reviewer used it at night exclusively.It absorbed pretty immediately and didn't leave an orange tone even though it's really dark (it also didn't stain my white pillowcase). I felt a very slight burning sensation where my face is predominantly red as I was trying to go to sleep, but nothing major. Woke up the next day, and my face looked absolutely normal for the first time in two years!! It was soft, the redness was gone, and my face didn't hurt! I wore a mask for a decent part of the day and my face still didn't turn red or hurt!The second day I decided to apply it a few hours before bed. I got the slight burning sensation again and saw that my face was reddish in those specific areas (mainly around the pores next to my nose/under my eyes). But that went away after about an hour, went to bed, and once again woke up looking and feeling completely normal.I cannot properly express how incredible it is for my skin to not be in constant pain. It's only been two days, but I hope this continues to work long term.

I have extreamly sensitive skin. I have used countless oils and other natural products on my face to help, or heck, just not hurt my already severe cystic acne. Nothing worked. Castor oil, coconut oil, shea oil, charcoal, vitamin E oil... so many cleansers and crap that dried my face out while causing more deep and painful pimples. Originally I had purchased this for my hair knowing how good it can be for it. In the summer I wear my hair wavy so I was looking for something to slightly define and defrizz. It works great in combination of my spf Beauty Protector detangle spray that I have an addiction too. I get that on Birchbox. I add a few drops to my spray in my palm, rub together and use from ends up. Lovely. So much moisture and softness but without that super oily feel and look that coconut oil gives. I decided about 2 weeks ago to test this on my face and body. I was worried, but hey, quarantine is a good time to try new stuff. I use CereVe sensative face wash, followed by CereVe Sensative multipurpose lotion. This has been the surprising addition it was missing. After washing my face, I pat dry, and then let it fully air dry. After its totally dry, I add 1/2 pump of my lotion and 1 or 2 drops of this oil to it, rub together and spread evenly on my face and neck. ITS HAS TOTALLY CHANGED the texture of my skin, as well as nearly eliminated my cystic acne. I cant believe I can say that. I never thought I'd find the answer to that especially not in an oil form. I still get a few teeny tiny white heads but they go away within hours. This specific brand is touted by many beauty blogs that i've read as well so that is awesome. I also add 4 to 6 drops or this, 4 drops of lemon oil and 4 drops of vanilla oil to 5 or 6 pumps of my CereVe lotion, mix that into my palm spread it all over. I get such soft, supple skin that smells like a lemon meringue pie! It also lasts all day and makes me feels fresh even in the heat. Ill be a lifetime buyer of this oil now.

**Update** 11/6/18I decided to update my review to 5 stars for two reasons: 1) I forgot to mention that the seller packed the bottle thoughtfully with a coupon for a free bottle and it arrived with not a single impairment and 2) I decided after a couple more weeks of consistent use that my own solutions posed below (for mild acne sufferers) work out just fine with this oil and my skin is feeling soft and smooth again. As stated below, after using Rosehip Seed oil, I then use the Sea Buckthorn oil on top, lightly, and then follow up with a bit of spot or pre-spot treatment using either my EpiDuo or Grease Lightning from Lush. My skin really looks great and again, a little risk of acne is so worth what this product does for my rosacea. (FYI Herbalism from Lush is also my one true holy grail facial cleanser and helps tremendously with combating acne, so that plays a part too.)**Original Review**This product works sooo well for my mild rosacea, and for the overall softness and smoothness of my skin. After a couple of weeks of use, I noticed an amazing smoothness to my skin! However, I also noticed quite a few more breakouts than normal, especially on my cheeks, where I rarely get breakouts. After a bit of research, I found that sea buckthorn oil doesn't necessarily have any components that cause acne, but it has a very low concentration of linoleic acid, which helps prevent acne. I'd call my skin somewhat acne-prone. (When I take care of my skin, I have very little acne. When I get lax on my skincare routine, I get lots of breakouts.) .Anyway, I found a couple of sites that suggested using an oil with high amounts of linoleic acid first, to balance out Sea Buckthorn Oil's lack of linoleic acid. This has helped me greatly. I layer it lightly on top of Trilogy's Rosehip Oil (also amazing for rosacea, acne, skin tone,) and avoid areas that I tend to get acne. For me, this is the center of my forehead, and the sides of my chin. I do still use the Sea Buckthorn on my cheeks, where I was getting random breakouts, but in conjunction with the Rosehip Oil, I have not had any more problems with acne in that spot. I was already using Rosehip Oil in the mornings, and I used Sea Buckthorn at night. Now I simply use Rosehip both in the morning and at night, and use Sea Buckthorn only at night.For those of you wanting smoother, softer, more supple skin, this product is amazing. And again I have to stress how much it helps with my rosacea, which is the first component I'm concerned with when checking out skincare products. That's actually what initially drew me to trying out sea buckthorn oil. Just be warned about its possible tendency to cause minor breakouts.

So let me start by saying I had not had any real problems with my skin until around April this year. Out of nowhere I developed painful, deep, never-healing acne around my jawline and pores clogged everywhere else. It was a huge hit to my self esteem and my social life and anyone who has bad skin will understand what I am saying. No matter what I did or how much makeup I had I never felt comfortable leaving my house.I had typical hormonal acne every month that I would combat with daily Acne Free face wash and a little spot treatment that worked well UNTIL the summer from hell. I read about what type of acne I had developed and started drowning in water, witch hazel, turmeric masks, ACV, tanning, anti inflammatories... you name it, I tried it. Nothing helped. So I cried a lot and continued to obsess about how to get “my” skin back.I read an article (who knows how credible it was, but I was desperate to find an answer) written by a dermatologist (again questionable) who discussed using different combinations of oils and vitamins to clear skin up without causing any permanent damage such as acne scars and wrinkles (from over-drying or drying out a pimple too fast). He talked about how oils work with the skin. One of his must try’s was the sea buckthorn so I ordered it along with primrose vitamins and castor oil. I started with castor and sea buckthorn mix on the left side of my face and just he sea buckthorn on the right. Other than the amount of oil that sat on the top of my skin I did not see any huge difference. The castor oils is very thick and didn’t absorb well but also did not break me out so I still use it at night occasionally.The sea buckthorn oil is very moisturizing, to the point where my scars and scabs would heal in a day or two (compared to the weeks it was taking prior to the oils). I am still getting clogged pores and occasionally pimples but nothing compared to what I was a month ago. I have a few small pimples pop up compared to the deep huge ones from before. I will say, be prepared to be oily. Be prepared not to wear makeup after applying it and be patient. I have been using it twice a day for a month and will keep using it forever. My skin feels healthier that it ever has despite the pimples. It is soft and glowing and recovers quickly.
