Omega 3 Fatty Oils

Hemp oil is a good source of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which are essential fats which help with healthy cells, nerves and our brain function. Omega-3 has strong anti-inflammatory properties and may calm skin conditions such as rosacea or eczema and minimize redness.  Omega-3s are a crucial part of your skin’s lipid (fat) content and help bolster its barrier function. Using a Hemp Cream will give you the benefits of the omega-3 fatty acids for your skin, which, acts like a seal that keeps moisture in and irritants out.

Vitamins A, E, and C

 

Hemp seeds are a naturally rich source of vitamins A, E, and C making it a great organic moisturizer and skin revitalizer.  The benefits of these vitamins help to improve dry and cracked skin.  Vitamin E, for example, has been found to help promote the growth of healthy skin tissue.  Hemp oil has the ability to reduce inflammation, blotchiness, dryness, and uneven texture without clogging the pores. Vitamin C is one of the building block of collagen which promotes elasticity in the skin and improves skin tone.  Vitamin B helps to keep skin firm with it’s naturally occurring fatty acids. Vitamin E is essential for healthy skin, keeping the skin smooth, and protecting it against cracking. What it truly does is prevents premature aging which wrinkles the skin. Combining these amazing vitamins in hemp creates essential health and beauty aid for your skin.

Anti Aging Properties

In addition to moisturizing and soothing the skin, hemp oil has anti-aging properties. Hemp oil can help reduce fine lines and wrinkles as well as prevent signs of aging from developing. Hemp seed oil improves moisture and elasticity to the skin by lubricating beneath the surface. Unlike other oils that simply coat the skin, hemp seed oil’s penetrative properties dry naturally while locking in moisture and improving skin’s quality. The linoleic acid and oleic acids found in hemp oil can’t be produced by the body but can play a crucial role in skin health and anti-aging, so they’re important nutrients to add to the diet.

Problem Skin

Hemp seed oil has anti-inflammatory properties that are perfect for those with sensitive skin, eczema or rosacea. A 2005 study reported that hemp seed oil used on eczema sufferers gradually improved their skin for dryness and itchiness, thanks to an increase of polyunsaturated fatty acids. The acids also help to reduce redness and irritation associated with acne and rosacea. Hemp seed oil has a comedogenic rating of zero, meaning that it has zero chance of breaking you out or clogging your pores.

Linoleic Acid

• Hemp Seed Oil—Oleic–10.71% Linoleic–56.48%

Linoleic acid is an essential building block for ceramides, one of skin’s main moisturizing elements. Our bodies can’t make this essential fatty acid, so we need to get it from our food or put it on our skin. Linoleic Acid, or Vitamin F, provides moisture and “plumpness” without weighing down the skin; it fortifies and protects the skin’s barrier, thereby helping to fend off UV rays and air pollutants such as smoke, both of which cause free radical activity that can result in wrinkles and signs of aging.

Tightens and Shrinks Pores

Hemp seed oil is a dry oil with its light and thin consistency, it helps tighten, tone and firm skin. Its astringent properties help minimize large pores that secrete excess sebum which causes greasy skin, blackheads, and pimples. If you have large pores, using hemp seed oil can help shrink and tighten them.

Lots of things besides the sun can affect your skin, including your diet, the amount of sleep you get, and stress. If you notice changes in your skin, take a look at any changes in your daily routine to see what might be causing them. Don’t forget that a good night’s sleep and a day without stress (along with some hemp seed oil) will do wonders for your skin.
