1 of 5 products in this brand
HEDI® Hemp Seed Oil (R10116) is an elegant water-based microdispersion carrying more than 30% hemp seed oil that is rich in proteins, lecithin, vitamins, minerals, and essential fatty acids: linoleic acid (omega-6) and alpha-linolenic acid (omega-3). Applications for HEDI® Hemp Seed Oil include skin, scalp, and hair softening and moisturizing regimens, as well as skin barrier repair and microbiome-modulating products. Hemp seed oil is an excellent emollient that promotes a youthful appearance by reducing fine lines and wrinkles, plumping the skin, and increasing skin elasticity. HEDI® Hemp Seed Oil is a natural, plant-derived silicone alternative.HEDI® products are stable ingredient blends of aqueous and oil-based materials made using a unique manufacturing process. HEDI® products are ultra-concentrated homogeneous constructs that are infinitely dilutable in aqueous systems. HEDI® products have superior aesthetics while simplifying formulation and manufacturing processes and enhancing the delivery of active ingredients in the formula. HEDI® products can be adjusted to achieve a consistency that is milk-like (pourable and even sprayable), creamy, or paste-like. Tactile properties can be light and silky or velvety and more occlusive. HEDI® products streamline manufacturing processes for time, energy, and cost savings by avoiding additional heating, melting, and mixing steps. HEDI® products are amenable to cold processes and do not require surfactants or emulsifiers.HEDI® products have properties similar to the skin barrier, promoting skin permeability and facilitating delivery through the lipid-rich, waterproof stratum corneum. Finished products have a better feel and provide superior surface coverage when compared to traditionally formulated butters and oils.
