Peach and Cypress Facial Serum
Whipping up another easy-peasy facial serum recipe here! This one's got peach kernel oil and Sea Buckthorn oil. Peach kernel oil is like that amiable friend who never overstays their welcome, it gently moisturizes and swiftly vanishes into your skin without a greasy goodbye. Perfect for those 'can't-make-up-their-mind' skin types, you know, the ones throwing both dry and oily parties at the same time...a.k.a. "combination skin".
For this recipe, I've used Mountain Rose Herbs Sea Buckthorn oil.

| Sea Buckthorn Berries |
According to Mountain Rose Herbs, Sea Buckthorn Oil is a useful, highly prized oil typically used to treat damaged skin. It can be applied directly to the skin or included within skin care preparations that are designed to relieve occasional symptoms of problematic skin conditions. This oil contains essential fatty acids, carotenes, tocopherols, and phytosterols. It is a concentrated oil, and they suggest to use sparingly. The sea buckthorn oil offered by Mountain Rose Herbs was processed by the cold press method of the entire berry with seeds.
