Sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides) is a dioecious shrub: there are male and female plants. The plant roots both horizontally and vertically.
In the Netherlands, the plant occurs naturally mainly in open, calcareous dunes (Hippophae rhamnoides subsp. rhamnoides). Buckthorn is a xerophyte; the species is also resistant to salt and sand drift. In Central Asia it grows in desert environments (Hippophae rhamnoides subsp. carpatica), in the Alps in open country and on riverbanks (Hippophae rhamnoides subsp. fluviatilis).
The berries are acidic and rich in vitamin C, vitamin E, carotenoids, flavonoids, plant sterols, lignans and minerals. The berry is rich in oil both in the seeds (seed oil) and in the soft parts of the fruit (pulp oil). The pulp contains between three and five per cent oil. The seeds contain about 10 per cent oil, while the oil content in the soft parts varies over a much wider range (0.5 to 10 per cent), largely depending on the origin and varieties.
Sea buckthorn oil can be extracted from the seeds or from pulp of the buckthorn fruit. Oil from seabuckthorn seeds and pulp differ significantly in fatty acid composition. While linoleic acid and alpha-linolenic acid are the main fatty acids in seed oil, oil from the pulp of sea buckthorn contains a total of about 65% of the monounsaturated fatty acid palmitoleic acid (an omega-7 fatty acid) and the saturated fatty acid palmitic acid combined.
Few other vegetable oils contain a similar amount of these fatty acids. Both seed and pulp oils are rich in tocopherols, tocotrienols and plant sterols. Moreover, pulp oils contain especially high levels of carotene and carotenoids.

Sea buckthorn oil is used for symptom relief in people with dry mucous membranes. The oily oil restores skin and mucous membranes. In Central Europe, the seed oil is used in cosmetic products. Most commonly used in dilution (1-50%) and added to a neutral base oil, such as almond oil, evening primrose or borage extracts or to a neutral base cream.
