Hemp
Just 4 U Soaps makes soap and hand & body lotion using hempseed oil, which are becoming very popular items. It is not hard to understand why when hemp seed oil balances dry skin, is healing, anti-ageing, absorbed easily into the skin, has anti-oxidant and moisture balancing properties and combats skin irritations.
Hemp seed oil comes from the seed of the Hemp Plant, this plant does not require the use of pesticides and every part of the plant is used when harvested. The hemp seed is pressed to release this wonderful oil rich in omega 3 and omega 6 EFA (essential fatty acids) and GLA (gamma Linolenic Acid). GLA is an essential fatty acid that resembles sebum, a natural lubricant found in the skin. These EFA’s are needed to keep moisture in the body and are what makes hemp oil moisturizing to the skin.
Skin care products containing Hemp seed oil sooth and restore dry and damaged skin relieving discomfort and increasing moisture retention. The GLA (gamma linolenic acid) in Hempseed Oil is why products made with this oil can offer relief of skin conditions such as psoriasis, eczema, and acne. With regular use of skin care products made with hemp seed oil the skin becomes soft and moisturized which can help slow down the aging effect.
