Let’s Talk about Hemp Oil and it’s benefits!

Yep! Hemp (not the stuff you smoke though). We’re actually talking hemp seed oil (obtained from the seeds of the Cannabis Sativa plant), and not to be confused with oil made from the cannabis flower which contains tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the chemical that gets people “high”! Hemp seed oil contains little to no THC, instead it contains cannabidiol (CBD).

Hemp seed oil (Hemp oil) actually provides some outstanding benefits and is becoming increasingly popular in treating a range of physical conditions – and that’s why it’s a key ingredient in quite a number of our products.

Hemp oil contains large amounts of omega-6 and omega-3 fats (unsaturated “good fats”), and all nine essential amino acids, which your body uses to make protein. There have been studies that suggest that hemp oil can help in reducing symptoms and providing relief for several types of skin disorders and contribute to better skin health ^WebMD. There have also been studies that indicate the omega-3s and omega-6s in hemp oil may be effective in treating a number of skin conditions, including acne, eczema, dermatitis, lichen planus, acne rosacea and psoriasis.

Making hemp seed oil part of your skincare routine can provide so many benefits. It can reduce inflammation, aid in pain relief, provide relief for several types of skin disorders and provide nutrition for your skin

• non-greasy, so it’s great in moisturising oils/serums/creams
• a natural analgesic (pain reliever) – therefore good for muscle & joint pain
