Hemp seed oil

10 tips for gently integrating natural oils into your routine

Hemp seed oil is rich in omega‑3 and omega‑6 fatty acids. These strengthen the skin barrier and help the skin retain moisture more effectively. It has proven soothing properties, reduces redness and supports the regeneration of sensitive or irritated skin. At the same time, the natural complex of antioxidants protects against environmental stress and premature skin ageing. Would you like to learn how to best incorporate this versatile oil into your daily care?
  • Choose high-quality, cold-pressed oil

Reach for cold-pressed hemp seed oil in dark glass bottles. This quality contains the most omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids and is particularly effective for skin and body care.

  • Store the oil protected from light and keep it cool

Keep hemp seed oil refrigerated and close the bottle immediately after each use. This prevents oxidation and extends shelf life.

  • Use it daily as a moisture booster

Apply 3–4 drops to cleansed skin. The oil strengthens the skin barrier, reduces feelings of tightness and leaves the skin supple – ideal for dryness and sensitive skin.

  • Combine the oil with your cream

Mix one drop into your day or night cream. This improves absorption and enhances the soothing effect of the fatty acids it contains.

  • Care for the intimate area with extra gentleness

Use pure hemp seed oil for intimate care. It soothes after shaving, reduces irritation and protects delicate skin from dryness.

  • Strengthen hair with a nourishing oil treatment

Massage 10–20 drops into dry lengths and the scalp. The oil promotes softness, reduces dryness and supports a healthy scalp.

  • Use hemp seed oil only in cold cuisine

Dress salads, bowls or dips with a teaspoon of hemp oil. Heat destroys the sensitive nutrients – for health benefits use it exclusively cold.

  • Test tolerance before first use

Apply a small amount to the inner forearm and wait 24 hours. This rules out intolerances and helps avoid skin reactions.

  • Use the oil selectively for redness and irritation

Dab irritated areas spotwise. Hemp seed oil has proven anti-inflammatory effects and supports skin regeneration – a gentle alternative to stronger actives.

  • Discover pharmacy products containing hemp oil

Many medicinal creams, serums or cleansing gels contain hemp seed oil to strengthen the skin barrier and retain moisture. Ask your pharmacy which formulation suits your skin type.

  • Hemp seed oil is a highly concentrated natural product. About 10 kilograms of hemp seeds are required to produce three litres of hemp seed oil. This high concentration explains its valuable nutrient content and underlines the importance of high-quality, gentle production.
  • Hemp is one of the oldest and most sustainable crops. The hemp plant has been used for centuries for food, textiles and even sealing pipes. It grows robustly, requires little fertiliser and is therefore particularly environmentally friendly. Despite its usefulness, its reputation was long affected – mainly due to confusion with THC-containing varieties.
