Hemp Seed Oil Virgin
Hemp Seed Oil-Virgin is a characteristic green liquid used in applications including nutritional supplement, food, cosmetic and industrial. This Virgin (Unrefined) oil has a characteristic odor and taste. With high levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids and low levels of saturated fatty acids, Hemp Seed Oil-Virgin is a unique oil known for its healthy properties. As a result of the oil’s high polyunsaturated fatty acid content, heat exposure should be limited
Hemp Seed Oil Benefits
One classic use is in soaps. Hemp oil is also used in paints and lubricants, and as a body care product. It may be rubbed directly onto the skin to treat cracked, dry skin, or it can be blended into body oils, body creams, and other personal care products. Some people also use it as a dietary supplement, taking advantage of the high concentrations of essential fatty acids in unrefined hemp oil and using the oil as a dressing or garnish to improve nutrition.
Unrefined hemp seed oil does not have a very long shelf life. The oil quickly goes rancid, unless it is stored in dark containers in a refrigerated environment. People who use unrefined hemp oil generally purchase it in small amounts so that it will not become rancid. The oil is also not suitable for cooking, because it has a very low smoking point. Refined hemp oil is much more shelf stable, although many of the benefits of it are not present after refining.
Hemp Oil Benefits for Skin
The hemp seed oil contains a number of fatty acids which are very healthy for your skin. These fatty acids nourish and moisturize your skin in the right manner and sufficient amount. There are many skin products like face creams and body creams which have hemp oil as the main ingredients. This is because it is herbal and has almost no side effects. A skin massage of only hemp oil, would give you healthy and rich skin which looks very young and held. If you are a regular user of hemp oil products for the natural skin care, it acts as an anti-aging benefit too. Hemp oil prevents skin disorders like psoriasis, eczema, acne and dry skin.
Hemp Oil Benefits for Hair
There are many hair health benefits of hemp seed oil as well. Many non-commercial and herbal hair products like shampoos, hair oils, conditioners, etc. are made by using hemp oil. Like the skin care, massages with hemp seed oil products can improve blood circulation in the head and the brain. Washing hair with hemp oil shampoos and conditioners, can thicken the hair texture and keep the scalp away from dandruff. Thus hemp seed oil is very beneficial for your hair care as well. Loss of hair is also reduced by using them and scalp infections and problems are kept away.
“Super” Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids
Hemp seed oil is also rich in “super” polyunsaturated fatty acids, most notably gamma-linolenic acid and stearidonic acid. Although these are not essential fatty acids, they may help reduce the symptoms of atopic dermatitis and other skin conditions. However, the amount of these non-essential fatty acids varies according to the quality of the hemp plant the acids were derived from.

The oil is not heavy when applied. I mix it with aloe vera gel for moisturizer.
