Where does it come from?
Hemp extract is derived from the seeds of the Cannabis sativa plant, which is cultivated in various parts of the world, including Europe, Canada, and the United States. The seeds are cold-pressed to extract the oil, ensuring that the nutritional content is preserved. Hemp has been cultivated for thousands of years for its fibers, seeds, and oil, and today, hemp seed oil is a popular ingredient in skincare products due to its rich nutrient profile.
Moisturizing: Hemp seed oil is an excellent emollient that helps to hydrate and lock in moisture, making the skin soft and supple.
Rich in Essential Fatty Acids: It contains a balanced ratio of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which are essential for maintaining healthy skin and improving its barrier function.
Anti-Inflammatory: The oil has natural anti-inflammatory properties, which can help soothe irritated or inflamed skin, making it ideal for conditions like eczema, psoriasis, and acne.
Antioxidant Protection: Hemp seed oil is rich in antioxidants, including Vitamin E, which help protect the skin from free radical damage and promote a youthful appearance.
Non-Comedogenic: Despite its richness, hemp seed oil is lightweight and non-comedogenic, meaning it won’t clog pores and is suitable for all skin types, including oily and acne-prone skin.
How is it used in our products?
Hemp extract is used, for example, in 007 Lifting Up Eye Elixir and 008 Shining Dope Eye Cream from LA DOPE. It is included for its ability to deeply moisturize and restore the skin's natural barrier, protecting it from environmental stressors and keeping it hydrated.
