Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 1

Himalaya Berry, often referring to the fruit of Sea Buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides), has a long history of use in traditional medicine systems, particularly in parts of Asia and Eastern Europe. In traditional practices, sea buckthorn berries and their oil have been used topically and orally for a variety of skin conditions, including acne, due to their purported anti-inflammatory and skin-healing properties. The berries are rich in vitamins (such as vitamin C and E), flavonoids, and fatty acids, which are believed to support skin health. However, while there are a few preliminary scientific studies suggesting that sea buckthorn oil can help improve skin barrier function and reduce inflammation, there is insufficient high-quality clinical evidence specifically validating its use for acne. Most support for its use comes from traditional knowledge and anecdotal reports rather than robust, well-controlled scientific studies. Thus, its use for acne remains primarily justified by traditional use, with only weak scientific evidence to support these claims at this time.
