Are you aware of the many benefits of hemp seed oil for your skin? If not, review this guide detailing the top ways hemp seed oil can boost skin health.

7 Benefits of Hemp Seed Oil for Your Skin

Hemp seed oil comes from the seeds of the hemp plant (similarly to how olive oil is made from whole olives). Commonly found in dietary supplements, this natural ingredient is valued for its many dietary benefits. But it is also a valuable ingredient in skin care products because of its many nourishing advantages. If you are curious about the benefits of hemp seed oil, here are some of the top ways this product can improve the health and appearance of your skin.

Discover These Benefits of Hemp Seed Oil

Not all beauty products are created equal. Some contain synthetic fragrances and colourings to make them more appealing. But these types of ingredients can ultimately harm your skin. If you want to use creams and moisturisers that are supportive and strengthening, look for organic products containing hemp seed oil. Here is what you should know about seven specific benefits of hemp seed oil for your skin.

1. Supplies More Oxygen to the Skin

Hemp seed oil contains vitamin E, which can support the body’s production of red blood cells. These cells transport oxygen throughout your body, which is an essential component of skin health. Hemp seed oil also promotes blood vessel dilation, allowing more blood to reach different areas of the body (including the skin). As the flow increases, oxygen and other nutrients are carried to the skin more effectively.

2. Lowers Inflammation

One of the benefits of hemp seed oil is that it has anti-inflammatory properties and can help soothe inflamed areas. It also contains antimicrobial compounds that kill the fungi, bacteria and viruses associated with skin irritants.

Skin inflammation can occur for a variety of reasons. Here are some common conditions:

• Eczema or atopic dermatitis (identified by red and itchy skin)

• Acne (leads to the development of whiteheads, blackheads or cysts)

• Psoriasis (marked by the development of flaky, red and patchy scales)

• Lichen planus (leads to rashes)

Your skin could also become inflamed due to excess sun exposure, overuse of harsh exfoliants and poor diet.

3. Maintains Homeostasis

When the skin cannot maintain homeostasis (a term that refers to proper pH balance), it can become excessively oily or dry. Hemp seed oil helps your body maintain a proper skin pH so it stays supple and soft without drying out or becoming too oily.

Hemp seed oil contains vitamins A and E, which are known antioxidants. These help protect you from premature aging and balances sebum production. Skin care products that contain hemp seed oil often leave you feeling luxuriously smooth and hydrated.

4. Slows Aging

Unstable atoms called free radicals circulate in our bodies and contribute to the aging process. Free radicals have an unpaired electron. To obtain balance, they steal electrons from healthy molecules in the body. If this process occurs quickly, it can lead to premature aging and cause the skin to look saggy and worn.

One of the benefits of hemp seed oil is that it contains antioxidants that neutralise free radicals by giving up some of their own electrons. When an antioxidant gives an electron to a free radical, it effectively turns the free radical off so that it can no longer damage healthy cells in the body. Through this process, antioxidants help slow down the aging process and give you a more youthful and vibrant appearance. There is no need to look for a mysterious Fountain of Youth when you can simply apply hemp seed oil products to your skin for the same result.

5. Works on All Skin Types

Hemp seed oil is gentle and can be used on all skin types. It is noncomedogenic, which means it can even be applied to blemish-prone areas without causing any problems. You can feel free to use beauty products with hemp seed oil for your oily, dry, combination, sensitive or normal skin.

There are not many products that are gentle enough for everyone to use. Fortunately, Gushiv creates creams, cleansers and toners that are all formulated with organic natural ingredients. Many of the items in the Gushiv line contain hemp seed oil to help bring balance to all skin types.

6. Soothes Rashes

Thanks to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, hemp seed oil is very good for easing rashes. If you are experiencing skin rashes, itchiness or redness, try applying a care product that contains hemp seed oil. You will notice a decrease in the problem area’s itchiness and inflammation in minimal time.

If you still experience skin redness and irritation after applying hemp seed oil to the affected area, you may want to schedule an appointment with a dermatologist. You could have a condition that requires more specialised treatment or prescription medication.

7. Helps Produce Collagen

As you age, your body begins to produce less collagen, which is the component of your skin that helps it remain elastic and tight. When collagen production declines, the skin tends to become saggy and loose. This is a natural part of the aging process, but that does not mean you cannot take steps to slow it down so you can look youthful for as long as possible.

One of the benefits of hemp seed oil is that it boosts collagen synthesis. It contains vitamin C, which is essential for collagen production in the body and reduces wrinkles and fine lines. If you are concerned about your crow’s feet or other facial blemishes, try applying a moisturiser containing hemp seed oil to your face every day. You are sure to notice a difference within a matter of weeks.
