The balance of essential fatty acids makes hemp seed oil the ideal ingredient for body care products, such as creams and salves that restore and soothe the skin. As a natural emollient, it is perfect in soaps, shampoos, lip balms, lotions, massage oils, conditioners, and shaving products. In addition, hemp oil contains a very rare gamma-linolenic acid, which research has found to be an effective sunscreen.
