The growing market for natural and organic products is leading to new and innovative uses for various plants and their extracts.

Although used for years in cosmetics and personal care items, hemp and its extract are being increasingly mentioned as being ingredients.

Hemp’s popularity is also being driven by its known moisturizing properties.

The natural and organic market in Europe is expected to reach and even pass the €1 billion mark according to market research company,
Organic Monitor.

Companies in the USA, the UK and Canada have all launched new products during May which contain hemp seed oil.

Surprisingly, despite having restrictions barring the growing of hemp, the US is a major producer of hemp-based cosmetics.
