Whisper-light hydrating serum that soothes and energizes with sea buckthorn leaf tea / 1 oz

MyHavtorn Hydrating Nectar is just what we think this beautiful line of skincare products from Sweden needed: a lightweight, hydrating partner for its sea buckthorn-infused oils, balm, and creams.

This plant-based, whisper-light serum features a blend of soothing botanical extracts — aloe, sea buckthorn leaf, neroli, chamomile, and witch hazel — to calm, strengthen, and energize stressed skin, while hyaluronic acid and glycerin plump fine lines and hydrate. It’s everything you’d expect from MyHavtorn, an Ayla favorite for years: brilliant in a subtle, simple way that will make you reach for it regularly.

Extra bonus: its hint of neroli, which is somehow the perfect match for the scent of sea buckthorn you'll get from anything that you use it with — whether it's their Face Oil, Botanical Oil Serum, Face Cream, Guldkorn Cream, or Botanical Recovery Balm.

Robin, MyHavtorn's co-founder, told us, "The main reason we developed the Hydrating Nectar was to complement our existing products with something that really stands out for its ability to deliver hydration and lock in moisture. We saw the need for a super-effective hydrator that provides long-lasting moisture and helps strengthen the skin’s barrier."

He added, "Hydrating Nectar Serum is designed to work perfectly alongside MyHavtorn’s other skincare products, giving your routine an extra boost of hydration. We’ve used natural, plant based ingredients to make sure it’s both gentle and effective. Plus, we kept the Nordic climate in mind—where cold, dry air can be tough on skin—making this serum an ideal solution for healthy skin all year round."

We agree; no matter what time of year it is, this lightweight, concentrated formula absorbs quickly, providing you with a perfectly prepped canvas for your next products; we love the Nectar applied immediately after cleansing and misting with MyHavtorn's Essence, and before any other products.
