Natural hemp products: multiple uses, multiple benefits

Posted on by
Hemp is one of the oldest industries on the planet, dating back more than 10,000 years from the start of pottery. Hemp is cannabis grown specifically for industrial use, and therefore contains very low levels of cannabinoids (THC). Used worldwide in clothing and increasingly in cosmetics, it is also used to make paper, textiles, building materials, food, medicine, paints, detergents, varnishes, oils, inks, and fuels.
Hemp oil is rich in Omega 3 and 6, and is absorbed directly into the skin, providing all kinds of benefits. Research has shown that Smokeable Hemp, rich in fatty acids and essential nutrients, helps the body’s natural ability to heal. Due to its ability to restore and moisturize the skin, the oil has become increasingly popular for cosmetics and body care products.
Increasingly, hemp is becoming the best-selling natural cosmetic product in the UK. Below is a review of the UK’s best-selling hemp products:
Hemp Hand Protector – This product is non-intoxicating and safe to use, and comes in an ultra stylish tube. This product sinks into the skin almost immediately and also forms a barrier to protect your hands. Used even on the driest hand (mine!), The positive effects are visible within hours. I have had my hands clear at the end of the day after using this cream. Intense therapy for skin hungry for moisture, hands down. With hemp seed oil and glycerin to smooth and reverse dryness, plus lanolin to help block everything.
Hemp Body Butter: Hemp contains the necessary fatty acids that provide moisture, with this in the body butter, helps to remove dead skin cells and replace it with good cells that will help retain moisture. It also contains shea butter and cocoa butter, which is great for smoothing skin and also helps with scars or stretch marks that may have to fade faster.
Hemp Lip Conditioner: Hemp Lip Conditioner is a very useful and relaxing product for dry lips in any season. With beeswax and enriched with hemp seed oil, this balm aims to calm and hydrate very dry skin. An added benefit is that you can apply this product, have a cup of coffee and still feel the protective film on your lips, unlike other lip balms that end at the rim of the cup, this one stays firmly in place. The product will last a long time, even when applied twice a day.
