Hemp Seed Oil Nourishing Face Serum

Omega Rich Moisterising Face Serum

Formulated with naturally omega-rich oils, this serum helps support the skin’s lipid barrier—key to maintaining hydration and skin integrity. Lightweight, easily absorbed, and designed for daily use.

Why this formula works

 

Kukui Nut Oil
Kukui nut oil is naturally rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids, with over 50% made up of linoleic and linolenic acids. Traditionally used by Hawaiians, the roasted kernels were pressed to produce a clear, lightweight oil known for its excellent skin penetration. When applied topically, it helps soften the skin and soothe sunburn and irritation. Today, it is widely regarded as a premium oil for both skin and hair care, valued for its moisturising and emollient properties.

Sacha Inchi Oil
Sacha Inchi oil supports skin health by helping to maintain the lipid balance of the epidermis. Rich in essential fatty acids, it contributes to the formation of the skin’s protective barrier, improving texture, softening the skin, and supporting anti-ageing care.

Omega-6 (Linoleic Acid)
Linoleic acid is an essential omega-6 fatty acid required for overall health. When applied to the skin, it helps support the skin barrier, improves moisture retention, and may assist in reducing inflammation and acne.

Hemp Seed Oil
Hemp seed oil is naturally free from cannabinoids and is exceptionally rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids, including linoleic and alpha-linolenic acid. Its composition makes it highly compatible with the skin, supporting barrier function and helping to protect against moisture loss—an ideal choice for maintaining healthy, resilient skin.

Usage note

 

Because this formula is fully anhydrous (contains no water), no preservative is required. Store in a cool, dark place to maintain freshness.

Oils rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids can oxidise more readily, so vitamin E is included to help support stability.

As with any new skincare product, a patch test is recommended prior to use
