Description: Hempseed Carrier Oil is high in Omega fatty acids and proteins. It is a fantastic cosmetic grade oil due to its nutrients, though the illegal Cannabis association tends to reduce its popularity. It is currently being more readily explored by progressive manufacturers.
Color: Pale yellow to golden yellow liquid.
Aromatic Description: Refined Hemp Seed has a distinct aroma. While still relatively mild, it is stronger than most other carrier oils.
Common Uses: Hempseed Carrier Oil is becoming a popular manufacturing oil, though only through pioneers in the cosmetic field. This oil reduces visible signs of aging while replenishing and protecting the skin’s moisture barrier and improving the texture of skin.
Consistency: Typical and Characteristic of Carrier Oils.
Absorption: Absorbs into skin at average speed, slight oil feeling left on skin.
Shelf Life: Users can expect a shelf life of up to 2 years with proper storage conditions (cool, out of direct sunlight). Refrigeration after opening is recommended. Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for current Best Before Date.
Cautions: None Known.
Storage: It is recommended that cold-pressed carrier oils be kept in a cool, dark place to maintain freshness and achieve maximum shelf life. If refrigerated, bring to room temperature before using.

Rating: The quality of the product is good. I don't care for hemp oil. I find that it leaves an oily residue that doesn't go away for a long time. It just doesn't absorb into the skin quickly or effectively. This is a reflection on hemp oil, not the quality of the product NDA is providing. They are providing a great product, this is just the nature of hemp oil. It has healthy therapeutic properties, try blending with other carrier oils or in products like lotions that contain arrowroot powder to help with the oily factor.

Rating: I love this oil in my CP soap recipes! It has a light scent, and doesn't take forever to trace, then, let's say, coconut oil. I was very sad seeing it out of stock when I really needed it, so I'm keeping an eye out. It must be a very popular product! I did order the hempseed unrefined oil - a nice rich darker colour and a more herbaceus hempy scent, using it with stronger scented EO's in my CP soaps and see how that works out. I've been very happy with New Directions Aromatics for their fast delivery and exceptional quality! Thank you!
Rating: This message is for Marissa from Edmonton, Alberta on 08/31/2007 who questioned the batch of hemp oil she got stating that is was fishy smelling. I believe this probably was a bad batch since I used hemp protien as a food sorce and one of the bottles I got of the powerder also had this fishy smell to it. It smelled just like the food you would fed to your gold fish. I still used it and had no problems with it but still think it might have been an issue with the hemp batch.
Rating: Best priced Hempseed Oil we have found to date!! LOVE it in our CP soaps!!!! One of our FAVOURITE carrier oils!!

Rating: I was worried about the smell of this product after some of the reviews, but it's not a heavy scented oil at all. Has a slight nuttiness to it with a hint of fresh cut grass. I do not mind the smell at all. But forget about the smell anyway because the oil is amazing for just about everything. Leaves my skin glowing and petal soft. I personally use this in an OCM mix and as a moisturizer all on its own. I almost feel like tossing everything else i have for my face out the window and just keep this in a bottle by the sink. Even my husband loves this stuff and uses it straight out of the bottle on his dry hands. My new favourite oil hands down.

Rating: I have used this in my bath bombs, and I like it. It's a nice light oil, similar in consistency to grapeseed oil, and doesn't leave a film around the bath tub.
Rating: LOVE this oil... can't make my body butter without it! very smooth

Rating: Wow! Hemp is one of my most popular oils! I keep getting request and great responses about it. I use it in hair oils and to add colour to other clear carrier oils. Unrefined hemp oil has a rich green colour and subtle scent--"5 STARS!"
Rating: Nice light scent and golden colour. Made a great addition to my soaps.

Rating: I\'m not sure if I got a bad batch of this oil, but I found it to have a fishy smell. I thought maybe it was my first massage client, but discovered it was the oil itself. Nothing else is able to mask the scent, even mixing it with other carrier oils to dilute it. I\'m not sure that I would buy this oil again. A huge disappointment.
New Directions Aromatics Response:
Hemp Oil has a distinct scent. However, this is characteristic of the oil and customers knowing this find our quality exceptional. Refined Hemp Oil has a dramatically reduced scent. Nonetheless, it is stronger than many carrier oils.
To date, we have never had the oil smell referred to as fishy. This is a description we would not agree with.

Rating: This oil has a distinctive scent, so I've not found it to be great with added scent, but it is an awesome massage oil. I've also added it to hair conditioner with success.
