The many benefits of Hemp Soap

Today we take a look at some of the reasons why a Hemp Soap could be an invaluable asset when it comes to your daily care routine. Hemp seed oil has been used for centuries to treat a variety of skin conditions including eczema psoriasis, and acne, just to mention a few.

Oily, dry, or combination, whatever your skin type is, you can use hemp soap. That’s because the fatty acid profile of a Hemp Oil soap mimics that of our skin. It’s also a wonderful anti-aging product, capable of slowing down oxidation caused by free radicals.

But why should I use Hemp Soap?

If you’re someone who’s never tried any hemp skincare product before, we recommend starting with hemp soap like our Sativa Citrus Soap Bar. It’s a good way to experience all the benefits of hemp, without necessarily changing your daily routine. Continue reading The many benefits of Hemp Soap

Handbalm, a helping hand for your hands

Let’s talk about hand balm. When it comes to skin care, many of us just think about our face, but what about our hands? Our hands age just as quickly as our faces, and what about the heavy use and exposure they endure throughout our lives. That is why we have developed Quincessentials Hand Balm. Taking care of your hands is an essential part of good skin care.

Similar to a salve, a balm is an ointment or preparation used to heal or soothe the skin. Quincessentials hand balm soothes dryness, heals cracks and generally helps tired hands (and flaky elbows). If like us, you garden or work outside regularly,  you know how hard the dirt, sun and sweat can be on your hands. Our hand balm helps your hands to stay healthy.  Continue reading Handbalm, a helping hand for your hands

Natural soap, just naturally better

Even if you don’t break out in a full body rash, the chemicals used to make conventional soap will most surely dry your skin. Unfortunately, many people wait until itchy, dry skin is a problem before making the switch to natural soap. Many people also use additional products to replenish and moisturize the skin after using conventional soap.

What most people don’t know is that soap you buy in stores is made with animal fat and chemicals. These chemicals strip your skin of its natural oils. That’s why many times you take a shower, you do not actually moisturize and your skin feels tight or dry.
