Alva Sanddorn

The ultimate anti-ageing system with cold-pressed organic sea buckthorn.

The cold-pressed oil of the organic sea buckthorn berry is one of the most valuable vegetable oils. In Tibet for hundreds of years it has been valued as an effective protection against the Sun’s potentially harmful UV rays, as well as being prized for its anti-aging and moisturising skincare qualities. In fact, Sea Buckthorn has a natural intrinsic SPF factor of 4.

Sea buckthorn is rich in provitamin A, vitamin E and non- saturated fatty acids such as olein and the very rare palmitoleic acid. That’s why Sanddorn products are ideal for normal and dry and skin as over the age of 30 our skin continually loses its ability to retain moisture.

Combined with selected active ingredients for optimal harmony, such as jojoba oil, cupuaçu butter, royal jelly, shea butter and hyaluronic acid, Alva has developed a deeply nourishing highly effective premium skincare range for the discerning woman.

The sea buckthorn used by Alva is sourced from the organic sea buckthorn plantation in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. This guarantees the shortest transit route with a low environmental impact whilst ensuring the highest quality.
