Hemp skincare – the plant kingdom's best-kept secret

The confusion around hemp is enormous and entirely understandable. Hemp and marijuana come from the same plant species – Cannabis sativa – but they're as different as a chihuahua and a wolf. Industrial hemp contains under 0.2 percent THC and cannot produce any intoxication. Marijuana is cultivated for high THC levels. That's a crucial distinction that still creates unnecessary stigma around hemp-based skincare.

Hemp seed oil – pressed from hemp seeds – has a unique fatty acid profile with omega-3, omega-6, and gamma-linolenic acid in a ratio that nearly perfectly matches the skin's own lipids. That makes it one of the most skin-friendly oils in existence. Hemp extract from flowers and leaves also contains cannabinoids like CBD and CBG.

The stigma around hemp has been fueled by decades of misdirected legislation and cultural prejudice. While some countries have embraced hemp's potential, many markets have kept it at arm's length – despite it neither intoxicating nor harming anyone. That's finally changing, and the skincare industry is one of the most exciting arenas for this shift.

Hemp is the foundation of everything we do. Our products use organic hemp grown in Europe – both hemp seed oil as a base and full-spectrum CBD and CBG extracted from the plant's flowers and leaves.

The DUO-kit with The ONE and I LOVE builds on hemp seed oil's unique fatty acid profile enriched with high concentrations of CBD and CBG. The result is face oils that give skin exactly the lipids and cannabinoids it needs to function optimally.

Au Naturel Makeup Remover combines MCT oil with CBD from hemp for cleansing that respects the skin barrier. TA-DA Serum delivers concentrated CBG from the same hemp source. From seed to bottle – hemp isn't just an ingredient in our products, it's the entire philosophy.
