Hemp Face Balms and Body Butters - Everything You Need To Know...

Hemp face balms and body butters are the latest beauty product trend. The reason is clear: they're a natural and effective way to keep your skin feeling soft and smooth.

Hemp face balms contain vitamins A, C, D & E, plus essential fatty acids and proteins that nourish the skin. Whereas, hemp body butters are made with shea butter which nourishes dry skin cells while also providing protection against UV rays that can cause premature ageing of your skin cells.

Furthermore, hemp products also contain minerals such as zinc and magnesium which help fight off free radicals that can damage your skin cells over time. 

Introduction to Hemp Face Balms and Body Butters

Hemp is a plant known for its medicinal and nutritional benefits. It was used for thousands of years as a natural medicine, but only recently has been legalised for use in Australia since 2017. 

The active compounds in hemp help to reduce inflammation, improve skin conditions like eczema, acne, psoriasis and rosacea. Hemp also contains antioxidants that protect against damaging free radicals. Our Hemp Face Balms and Body Butters are made from the seeds of the plant. These oils are rich in omega fatty acids which can help soothe dry skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis.

What are Hemp Face Balms and why should people use them?

Hemp Face Balms are a great way to moisturise your face. In fact, did you know that Hemp Face Balms and Body Butters have been around for hundreds of years? Furthermore, hemp has been used by many different cultures across the world for their skin conditioning properties.

Our Hemp Face Balms and Body Butters use Australian hemp seed oil, which is loaded with omega 3, 6 and 9 fatty acids. The oils are also rich in vitamins A, E and D as well as protein & fibre making the balm perfect for all types of skin types including those suffering from dry or sensitive skin conditions such as eczema or psoriasis!

What are Hemp Body Butters and why should people use them?

Hemp Body Butters are a natural, organic alternative to many skin care products. They're made from the seeds of the hemp plant, which contain the highest concentration of essential fatty acids and proteins found in any plant. This makes Hemp Body Butters great for your skin because they help restore moisture and retain it. 

The most common types of Hemp Body Butters are made from either shea butter or cocoa butter. Shea butter is an extremely moisturising ingredient that's often used in combination with other oils to make even more effective body butters. Cocoa butter is another popular choice for making body butters because it doesn't clog pores like some other ingredients can do when rubbed directly onto your face or body skin areas that need extra moisture (like hands).

What makes Hemp Face Balms and Hemp Body Butters so special?

Hemp is a great moisturiser. It contains essential fatty acids, which are known to help skin retain moisture and keep it soft. Hemp also contains vitamin E and other antioxidants that help fight the damage caused by free radicals in the body, which can accelerate ageing.

Hemp is an anti-inflammatory. Because hemp seed oil contains omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids (the same ones found in fish oil), it has powerful anti-inflammatory properties. These fatty acids also make hemp perfect for soothing dry or irritated skin!

Hemp is naturally antiseptic. In fact, many people have reported that using Hemp Seed Oil on their acne scars not only helps them fade away but also prevents new blemishes from forming.

Hemp Seed Oil has been shown to be effective for treating eczema due to its ability to improve skin hydration by promoting moisture retention within the stratum corneum.
