Topological Vector Spaces, II, p. 39, § 5. Separation of convex sets

In a locally convex space EE, the closure of each convex cone CC of vertex 00 is the intersection of closed half-spaces containing CC determined by closed hyperplanes that pass through 00.

For C‾\overline{C} is a convex cone of vertex 00 (II, p. 13, prop. 14). For x∉C‾x \notin \overline{C}, there exists a closed hyperplane HH that separates xx strictly from C‾\overline{C}(prop. 4). It is now just necessary to apply the following lemma :

Bourbaki puts the proof directly after the statement, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
