INCI Name

Description

Cold pressed and organic. Aromantic has added 0.5% vitamin E Oil to  increase its shelf life from 6 months to 2 years.

Skin Care

A very, very dry oil that is rough by it itself on the skin, but is absorbed easily A good source of essential fatty acids (Omega 3 and 6). Good for normal, large-pored to oily skin. Hemp seed oil contains 2-3% GLA and can be used in the same way as Evening primrose and borage oils.

Hemp seed penetrates down into the skin and helps the skin to become softer. It also has a moisture-retaining effect. The GLA content makes it ideal to use in psoriasis, eczema and acne treatment products.

Because the oil is very, very dry it can be used on people with oily skin and large pores. As it has a very low freezing point, it helps to rebalance oily and large-pored skin types to more normal skin. For this purpose, add the hemp seed oil to face oils or serums. It makes damaged hair more glossy and manageable. Excellent for nail care and nourishment as hemp seed oil contains many minerals such as zinc.

Home remedy

A delicious nutty oil, thin and dry and rich in essential fatty acids, which is vital for our wellbeing but cannot be made by our bodies. Hemp seed oil contains GLA in small quantities. Recommended use for good health: Adults: 1-2 tablespoons per day. Children 2-4 teaspoons.

Cooking

Hemp seed oil should not be used for frying due to its fragility. It can be heated at low temperatures but at higher temperatures it creates unhealthy by products known as trans-fatty acids. It is good as an alternative to olive oil in salad dressings and mayonnaise. It also gives extra flavour to ready-made products such as pasta, baked potatoes and vegetable dishes.
