Escentia Hemp Seed Oil - Cold Pressed is a cold-pressed, unrefined carrier oil used in skincare, haircare, and DIY body-care formulations where a light, easily absorbed plant oil is wanted. It is commonly added to creams, soaps, massage oils, lotions, face oils, body oils, and lip balms, and is especially appreciated for its balanced, conditioning feel on skin and hair. This is a carrier oil, not an essential oil, so it is used as a nourishing base oil rather than for fragrance. Because it is unrefined and free from artificial colourants, the colour can vary noticeably from batch to batch.
♡ Why we love it: Hemp seed oil is one of those wonderfully versatile ingredients that fits beautifully into both simple and more advanced formulations. It feels lighter on the skin than many richer oils, brings a naturally fresh plant character to DIY blends, and is especially lovely for makers who want a cold-pressed oil with a more modern, easy-to-use skin feel.

normal.

hair formulations.
Q: Can I use this in DIY haircare products?
A: Yes, it works well in shampoos, conditioners, and hair oil blends where you want added softness, manageability, and
shine.

This product is beautiful- has no heavy smell and absorbs well, I will defiantly be putting in another order. also my product arrived in no time.
I am sooooo glad I received my hemp after being notified that there is 1 litre left. I clicked, confirmed and voila- my hemp arrived, smiling coyly as it found a new home for its many CP soap adventures!!!
I am so very pleased with this product. It carries the hemp/cannabis smell and flavor ever so slightly. I use it in quite a few of my products, it blends together with everything so well.
