Hemp has become quite popular in recent times as people are realising it’s benefits of which they were unaware due to the stigma that hemp causes intoxication as it comes from the family of the Cannabis (marijuana) plant. Hemp seeds as well have a lot of health benefits and can help improve skin and hair condition.

So the only ‘high’ you’ll experience with its use in your skincare is the high quality results of your skin. Growing hemp is also proven to be very sustainable since it is very persistent, consumes way less water than the other crops and can be used in a number of products like clothing, soaps, cosmetics, printer’s ink, etc.
