Colour: deep grassy green

Here’s why Hemp one of the ultimate super skincare ingredients:

Kind to Skin. Got sensitive skin? Acne-prone? Eczema? Hemp oil is not only gentle but also non-comedogenic, meaning it won’t clog pores. Its effective anti-inflammatory properties work like a charm for both eczema and acne, reducing redness and soothing irritated skin.

Antioxidant Powerhouse. Want to slow down premature aging? You’re going to need free radical-fighting antioxidants. These combatants protect the skin from oxidative stress, shielding the skin from environmental pollutants and UV rays.

It’s Essential! For nourishment and healing. Hemp oil’s omega- 3 + omega- 6 essential fatty acids maintain the skin’s natural lipid barrier, which in turn achieves a soft and supple complexion.

Kind to Planet. If you’re looking to minimise your environmental impact while also touting a stellar skincare routine, then Hemp Oil (and *ahem* The Kind Planet Company) is for you. Hemp plants require less water and fewer pesticides. Hemp is super-efficient at carbon sequestration, absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and acting as a natural carbon sink. It’s deep root system helps prevent soil erosion and its minimally intensive cultivation methods preserve the health of agricultural land. Hemp is less land intensive than comparable crops, produces very little to no waste as nearly every part of the plant is used for something, and is a renewable resource.

Hemp Seed Oil’s nutrient-rich profile and bioactivity make it a top tier skincare ingredient. By incorporating this botanical treasure into your skincare routine, you can harness the potential of nature to achieve healthy, radiant skin.

Our Hemp Seed Oil is Soil Association certified organic and cold-pressed.

You can find it in abundance in both POWER BALM and Golden Body Oil.
