We like to think of hemp seed oil as a daycation for your melanin. When the skin is healing from damage, melanin steps up to protect it, but sometimes too much protection leads to hyperpigmentation. Hemp seed oil comes in like a soothing holiday, destresses and rebalances your skin without the excess baggage of dark spots.
How? It contains not one, but TWO glow getters for blemished skin - Chlorophyll and Vitamin F!
Chlorophyll – Green Spa Tonic
Chlorophyll, the green pigment found in plants that allows them to absorb light and convert it into energy, is like a deep healing breath for your skin. It's known for its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. By helping to reduce inflammation and fight off acne-causing bacteria, chlorophyll works to minimize the occurrence of breakouts and promote a clearer complexion.
Vitamin F – Zen for your Skin
Vitamin F, aka linoleic acid, is an essential fatty acid that helps maintain the skin's barrier function, repair the skin, and reduce redness and irritation. For those struggling with acne, vitamin F helps by regulating sebum production and minimize breakouts.
But that’s not all! Both chlorophyll and vitamin F have been shown to assist your skin’s healing process of acne scars and hyperpigmentation. They work together to diminish dark spots and proactively even out the skin tone by curbing excess melanin production.
An ingredient that fights acne flareups AND hyperpigmentation without irritation of sun sensitivity? Yes please!
🌿 How We Source Matters
Now, no shade to your grocery store hemp seed oil, but not all hemp seed oil is equal. We source ours directly from a woman-owned farm in Kentucky that presses the hemp seeds in small batches to maximize its nutrition. It’s dark green color means that it’s richer in chlorophyll than the industrial hemp seed oil that most skincare factories use.
Ready to balance and brighten your complexion without irritating and sun-sensitizing serums? We recommend using the Featherlight SkinNectar by day and the H2Oil at night for that “I took a daycation” complexion.
