Sibu Beauty- Review & Giveaway


A fairly new company, Sibu, was created by Bruce McMullin. After a series of events that had him cross paths with an ayurvedic specialist in Chinese plants & herbs, he wound up experimenting with the seabuckthorn berry, a powerful holy fruit. Searching some of the most desolate locations, he found this holy fruit, and created a line of beauty products, called Sibu, created in 2009. Sibu's exclusive harvesting and manufacturing process produces more potent and hardy nutrient dense sea buckthorn raw materials than currently available on the market today!



What exactly is Sea Buckthorn? 

A powerful and distinctive whole food source.
This super fruit is backed by more than 130 scientific studies demonstrating its success at addressing a variety of consumer needs including improved skin tone and texture, healthy aging and digestive health! Backed by 1300 years of traditional uses, this old age remedy is now available for all of us thru Sibu!



Sibu's premium Himalayan sea buckthorn products are-

100% natural
contain no preservatives, dairy, wheat, gluten, sodium or yeast.
Paraben free
Cruelty free
Fair Trade




Sibu Beauty offers a wide range of products, from dietary supplements to renewing your skin. The product I want to tell you about now is the Sea Buckthorn Hydrating Serum! I recently had the opportunity to review this little jar of heaven! 


I was sketchy about this hydrating serum, because I have very sensitive skin, and typically when a product says anything about "hydration," it usually breaks my face out! However, after using this product daily for over 2 weeks now, I have nothing but fabulous thoughts about this product! 


This is a lightweight, non-oily serum that literally feels like someone took a fresh berry, squished it in your hand with a little water. It feels that natural, and guess what? It really is! To use, just gently massage on your face and neck and you will immediately get rid of that tight, dry feeling in your skin! It not only feels incredible, but the lasting benefits are amazing! 


Natural Sea Buckthorn oils have proven to improve skin tone and texture, and help brighten complexion, stimulating cell renewal. Infused with vitamins and high in antioxidants, this serum fortifies the skin against the aging process and repairs damage at a cellular level. (now who could NOT use some of that??) Plus, it smells fabulous!


-My Thoughts-

This serum is heavenly!

Great for all skin types!

Simple, Pure, Gentle, and lightweight! Exactly what I was looking for!

Free of nasty chemicals and products. Everything is natural.

Repairs and protects.



-Win It-

One reader will win a bottle of Sibu Sea Buckthorn Hydrating Serum!

I went to their website and I love that they practice fair trade and harvesting practices. Also being free from harsh chemicals has been a goal for me this year. This is a great product!!

I would really like to try the facial cleanser. I don't know why it's so hard for me to find good cleansers...

One thing not mentioned was about the fair trade and harvesting practices that they have. Very important to me.
