Why Hemp Seed Oil?
Natural oils in all their forms have been used for centuries, from Ancient Egypt, Israel, Sumeria and China to Rome. Cleopatra was known for using essential oils in her beauty routine, and healers from every culture around the world have looked for the medicinal properties in plants. And today we still look to plants and the oils that they produce to nourish and protect our skin.
There is a huge global shift towards natural, organic and environmentally friendly treatments.
Oils are becoming very popular, not only for their nutritional benefits, but also for the way they make your skin feel – luxurious and pampered – not to mention the wonderful aroma’s they produce.
One of the oils that really stand out, and is becoming very sought after these days, is Hemp Seed Oil. It is a beautiful warm green oil with a nutty fragrance. This oil is extracted from the seeds of the hemp/cannabis plant. Because of the many benefits of Hemp Seed Oil, it is regarded as a super-food for the skin.
The benefits of Hemp Seed Oil speak for themselves…
BALANCES THE SKIN AND HELPS FIGHT ACNE: Hemp Seed Oil is loaded with vitamins, minerals and Omega 6 and 3 fatty acids. It is non-comedogenic which means it does not clog your pores and because it is rich in fatty acids it helps to moderate sebum and excess oil production, thus balancing your skin and preventing it from being dry or too oily. It is perfect for both young and mature skin.
ANTI-INFLAMMATORY: The fatty acids have anti-inflammatory qualities which calms inflamed skin caused by acne. Fatty acids also help to produce the skin’s natural oil barrier which protects against the natural elements.
ANTI-AGING AND SKIN REGENERATION: Our bodies do not have the ability to produce Linoleic and Oleic Acids (Omega 9). it is therefore important that we include these acids into our daily diet, as well as into our skincare routine, as they help to fight the signs of aging.
Hemp also contains Magnesium, Potassium, Vitamins B1, B2, Vitamin E and Lipids, these stimulate Collagen production which helps to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. The omega 6 contains Gamma-Lonolenic Acid (GLA) which encourages skin growth and new cell generation. GLA is also known to nourish and repair the skin.
HEALING QUALITIES: There has been reviews that claim that Hemp Seed Oil has been used to assist in the treatment of Eczema, Dermatitis and inflammatory skin conditions. It is said that Hemp Seed Oil also strengthens the skin and enables it to fight infection. This may be as a result of the nutritional elements, vitamins and fats in the oils.
Hemp Seed Oil is nourishing, moisturizing, calming and rejuvenating. It plumps the skin and works to produce a younger looking complexion.
