Umuthi Hemp Seed Oil - Cold Pressed is a 100% pure carrier oil cold pressed from hemp seeds. It is used in body care, skincare, massage oils, and oil-based cosmetic formulations where a lightweight, fast-absorbing botanical oil is preferred. This is a cosmetic oil rather than a certified food-grade oil, so it is intended for external use only. It is a carrier oil, not an essential oil, and is best suited to oil-based applications.
♡ Why we love it: Hemp seed oil is a lovely option when you want a light, nourishing oil that does not leave too much surface residue. It is especially useful in simple body oils and skincare blends where a naturally rich fatty acid profile is wanted without a heavy feel.

I own a pet business and love using quality natural ingredients in my products.
I am satisfied with the quality of this product. The size I needed was sold out, so I had to settle for 2x smaller sizes.
I thought it is was CBD oil. I am disappointed.
Good morning Ziyanda,
Thank you for your feedback — I’m really sorry to hear that the product wasn’t what you were expecting.
We always aim to be as transparent as possible about our products and their ingredients, which is why the product description doesn’t mention CBD, as this is a hemp seed oil and not a CBD oil.
To clarify: hemp is a variety of the Cannabis sativa plant. Hemp seed oil is made by cold-pressing the seeds of the plant, and while it’s rich in nourishing fatty acids, it contains no CBD. CBD, on the other hand, is a compound extracted from the flowers and leaves of the plant — not the seeds.
That said, we do offer a generous 14-day return policy if you're unhappy with your purchase — please feel free to reach out, and we’ll be happy to assist!
Warm regards,
Gabriella
Love this product, just wish that the expiry date or at least a batch number would be added to the bottles.
Thank you for your feedback, Nadia! We understand your feelings fully. Umuthi will gladly provide the COAs (batches are tracked via their invoicing to us), in case that will be of help. I'll forward the hemp oil COA under sperate cover.
