- Hemp oil from cold pressing and organic farming

- Provides soft and smooth skin
The high proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids makes hemp oil a special care oil. Hemp oil is greenish-yellow in color and has a spicy, nutty scent. If you take a closer look at the fatty acid distribution of hemp oil, you will notice that it is similar to the nutritionally optimal ratio of 4:1. Hemp oil is therefore considered a valuable and recommended cooking and care oil. The high content of valuable fatty substances such as phytosterols also deserves special attention. These are elementary building blocks of the skin barrier layer and thus prevent transepidermal water loss (TEWL).
Use of hemp oil in cosmetics
Hemp oil is highly valued for its anti-inflammatory and smoothing properties. In natural cosmetics, hemp oil is often used in combination with base oils such as jojoba oil. Valuable α-linolenic acid makes hemp oil an excellent support for skin that needs regeneration and moisture. In terms of how it feels on the skin, hemp oil is very similar to rosehip seed oil. It absorbs quickly and leaves the skin feeling smooth and soft.
