Skincare Ingredients - Cannabis Sativa (Hemp) Seed Oil

Hemp seed oil is one of the most beneficial oils for skincare. It's rich, thick and green (slightly yellowish colour). The thickness of hemp seed oil comes from over 80% essential fatty acids that are quite rare in cosmetics. Hemp seed oil contains all 8-11 essential fatty acids, which makes it a very effective moisturiser for dry skin. Hemp seed oil is also rich in vitamin E (tocopherols), meaning it offers antioxidant effects to the skin.

Hemp seed oil has no smell (like other nut oils), absorbs well into the skin, doesn't leave greasy residue and contains natural SPF factors. It's 100% natural with no additives or chemicals that are used in skin care products.

Organic hemp seed oil is one of the few oils that's rich in gamma linolenic acid (GLA), also found in evening primrose, borage and black currant seed oils. This rare GLA makes it great for psoriasis, eczema, acne.

Hemp seed oil, thanks to its fatty acids content, has anti-ageing effects on the skin. It improves blood circulation and offers regenerating effect to cells that are exposed to UV radiations or other environmental damages.

Organic Hemp seed oil has been used in many natural cosmetics formulations around the world. Hemp seed oil is particularly recommended for anti-wrinkle and / or moisturising eye creams, facial serums and body lotions. Organic hemp seed oil can be used alone on dry skin types (face, hands, feet) to lock the moisture in the skin.

Skincare products that contains hemo are ideal for people with sensitive skins; they have strong repairing properties and protect the skin from environmental damage. Organic hemp seed oil is a perfect ingredient for all types of skincare products: creams, serums, lotions, facial oils.
