Hemp oil in homemade soapmaking offers intense hydration thanks to its essential fatty acid content. Its lightness and ability to penetrate the skin quickly make it an ideal ingredient for cold-saponified soaps, preserving the beneficial properties of the oil. What's more, its anti-inflammatory and regenerative properties help soothe and revitalize the skin, providing a luxurious skincare experience.

Unsaponifiables:

  • Vitamin E (tocopherols): A natural antioxidant that helps protect skin from oxidative damage and improves the longevity of skincare products by preventing oils from going rancid.
  • Phytosterols:
    • Beta-sitosterol: Offers anti-inflammatory and soothing properties, making it ideal for treating sensitive, irritated skin.
    • Campesterol: Helps reduce skin inflammation and supports a healthy skin barrier.
  • Carotenoids: Although present in small quantities, they provide antioxidant properties and can help protect the skin against UV damage.
  • Terpenes:
    • Myrcene, Limonene, and Pinene: These compounds offer various therapeutic properties, including anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects that can be beneficial in soap formulations for problem skin.
  • Chlorophyll: Gives hemp oil its characteristic green color and offers detoxifying and skin-repairing properties.


Its saponification value
:

The saponification value of hemp oil is 135, which means that it will take 0.135 g of NAOH l ye to saponify 1 g of hemp oil. This information will help you calculate your own recipe.

In your calculator, choose "Hemp Oil" or "huile de chanvre".

This oil is sensitive to oxidation, so its content in your recipe should be between 3% and 15% maximum.

Tips :

  • Add 3-15% hemp oil to your soap recipes to benefit from its moisturizing and nourishing properties. For my part, I don't go beyond 10%. Being an unstable oil, I prefer to complete my recipe with Jojoba oil, olive oil, coconut butter.
  • Add it to the fine trace of soap to preserve its benefits for the skin.

The trace :

  • When adding hemp oil to the trace, be sure to do so gently and meticulously to avoid any separation or lumps in your mixture.
  • Hemp oil tends to be light and quickly absorbed, so incorporate it gradually to ensure even distribution in your soap mixture.
  • Being an unstable oil, even a small quantity in your recipe will trace quickly. So be careful when choosing the oils for your recipe.
  • Use in natural coloring: Can be used to add natural color to soaps, giving a soft hue without the use of artificial colorants, making it an ideal choice for those practicing eco-friendly soapmaking.


Additions
:

  • Combining Hemp oil with other oils can balance the soap. Coconut oil for hardness, olive oil for hydration, and shea butter for its nourishing effect are ideal complements.
  • Saponification temperature: Maintain a moderate temperature during the process, between 35°C and 40°C, to promote a good reaction without accelerating the trace.

Mussels :

Our molds are flexible, making them easy to remove from the mold once the soap has hardened. What's more, they enable better heat retention during the saponification process, promoting optimal soap setting.

Be aware that the reaction between soda and oils can generate heat. Use our special molds and monitor the temperature throughout the process to avoid freezing your soaps.

Tips and Usage for Solid Shampoo and Conditioner:

Add 10 ml of Hemp oil to your solid shampoo or conditioner recipe. Works perfectly with castor oil.

Be sure to mix well so that the oil is evenly distributed throughout the solid shampoo.

  • For curly or wavy hair, light Hemp oil nourishes the hair fiber without weighing down curls, preserving their natural volume and leaving them supple and plump. Use daily to maintain moisture and prevent dehydration.
  • Frizzy or afro hair benefits from Hemp oil as a mask or oil bath to combat dryness, bringing shine and vitality to strands. The oil's essential fatty acids help compensate for sebum deficiency, facilitate detangling and reduce hair breakage.
  • For fine hair, Hemp oil, rich in vitamins and proteins, offers fortifying properties, revitalizing hair and improving its density. Use it regularly for apparently stronger, fuller hair and to prevent split ends.
