Oil Summary: Virgin Organic Hemp Seed Oil is a green liquid extracted from Cannabis Sativa seed. It’s used in wide array of applications ranging from industrial to cosmetic to nutritional supplements. It contains high levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids and low levels of saturated fatty acids. Organic Hemp seed Oil is a unique oil known for its healthy properties. If you have naturally oily or acne-prone skin, do not shy away from adding hemp seed oil into your beauty regimen. This oil has a composition similar to sebum, thus helping your skin produce an optimal oil level. It also penetrates the skin quickly without clogging the pores, which in turn can trigger acne. The hemp seed oil contains anti-inflammatory properties such as fatty acids and antioxidants that may help treat symptoms of inflammatory skin conditions such as skin itchiness, redness, and dryness. Therefore, hemp seed oil’s topical application may benefit people suffering from eczema, atopic dermatitis, and psoriasis. Simply apply a few drops of hemp seed oil on the face, wait for a few minutes, then rinse it off with warm water.
