Hemp cosmetics: types of products and how they fit a personal-care routine

Table of Contents

In short: Hemp appears in many cosmetic products, from oils to balms and gels. Here we look at the different types of hemp cosmetics and how they fit into a personal-care routine – as general information.

Types of hemp cosmetics

Hemp-derived ingredients feature in a growing range of cosmetics. The two most common are hemp seed oil, valued for its fatty-acid profile, and hemp extract containing CBD, used as a botanical ingredient in creams, balms and gels.

Where hemp cosmetics fit

Facial oils and creams as part of a moisturising step.
Balms and ointments for targeted skin care.
Massage gels with a warming and cooling sensation.
Lip and hand care products.

Choosing a hemp cosmetic

Look for clear ingredient lists, the stated CBD content where relevant, and transparent labelling. As with any cosmetic, patch-test a new product and keep it away from the eyes and mucous membranes.

I had problems sleeping, constant stress...

I still remember the first morning after I tried the drops for the first time, the first time I stood up I had a big smile, there was not a bit of fatigue!

After a long stressful period, I tried drops for relaxation and sleep for the first time. The stress gradually decreased, I felt more calm, and my sleep improved drastically. Now I wake up in the morning satisfied and sleepy.
