A Look at the Benefits of Hempz Sunless Tanning Products

When it comes to sunless tanning products, one of the more popular brands is Hempz. Collectively, the company’s collection contains an array of wonderful ingredients including hemp seed oil. Here’s a quick look at the ingredients benefits and which sunless tanning products deserve a spot in your collection:

Natural and Safe
Hemp seed oil, as you can probably guess, comes from the hemp nut. It is part of the Cannabis sativa L. plant. Although some people may associate it with other items, the company’s sunless tanning products are THC free. Some of their hemp oil products are also vegan approved as well as paraben and gluten free.

Moisture with No Residue
Essentially, the organic oil’s standout features may be traced back to its composition. It contains ingredients that naturally hydrate, smooth, soothe and improve the overall appearance of skin. In addition, its inherent nature causes it to be absorbed into the skin very quickly. Some of the ingredients known to be found in the oil are fatty acids (i.e. omega, linolenic, and amino) and Vitamins (i.e. E, C, B1, B2, B3 and B6).

Now that we’ve briefly addressed hemp seed oil’s best attributes, let’s move on to the noteworthy products. If you are looking to gently exfoliate and moisturize your skin prior to a sunless tanning session, consider trying either the Hempz Body Scrub or Hempz Pomegranate Sugar Body Scrub. Both are hemp oil rich, gluten and paraben free. However, there are obviously distinct differences between the two. The first of the two sunless tanning products relies on the friction generated by crushed hemp seeds to slough off dead skin cells. It also contains sandalwood and apple extracts that add a delicious fragrance into the mix. The other product relies on natural sugar crystals to get the job done. It also contains antioxidant rich and fragrant pomegranate extract too.

When it comes time to hydrate the skin pre or post tan, there are three superb sunless tanning products to consider. They are the Hempz Herbal Moisturizer, Hempz Body Butter and Hempz Touch of Summer Daily Moisturizer. The first two sunless tanning products are suitable for use as a barrier cream and also contain shea butter. The last product is excellent for prolonged, daily use and extending one’s sunless tan. We should also mention that all three moisturizing products contain high amounts of hemp seed oil and no parabens or gluten. For those that are interested, the herbal moisturizer is also considered vegan friendly.
