The beauty industry has been steadily moving towards clean beauty products, with hemp-infused skincare leading the pack. Hemp is a powerful but gentle ingredient that helps to keep skin moisturized and healthy. Here, we take a look at the must-have hemp-infused skincare products for 2023.

Cleanser

A good cleanser is essential for keeping your skin looking and feeling its best. A hemp-infused cleanser will gently remove dirt, oil, and makeup while also hydrating the skin. Thanks to its anti-inflammatory properties, it can help to reduce redness and irritation as well.

Serum

The key to having glowing, healthy skin is to use a serum on a daily basis. Hemp serums are rich in antioxidants such as vitamin E and fatty acids which help to protect the skin from free radical damage and keep it hydrated all day long. They can also help reduce wrinkles and fine lines, giving you an even more youthful complexion.

Hemp moisturizers are lightweight yet deeply nourishing, helping to lock in moisture while calming any inflammation or redness caused by dryness or irritation.

Hemp Cultivation in the US

 

Hemp cultivation in the United States has seen a resurgence in recent years, thanks to changes in legislation and a growing demand for products made from the plant. In 2018, When the Hemp Bill passed in America, we at Dr. Milo got straight to work experimenting with hemp oil in our home kitchen.

Hemp, a variety of the Cannabis sativa plant species, is grown for its seeds, fiber, and oils. It has been used for centuries in various industries, including textiles, construction, and food. Unlike its cousin marijuana, hemp contains very low levels of the psychoactive compound THC, making it legal to grow and use in the United States.

The 2018 Farm Bill, removed hemp from the list of controlled substances and classified it as an agricultural commodity. This change in legislation has opened the door for farmers to grow hemp and for companies to produce and sell hemp-derived products, such as Cannabidiol.

So how did this bill affect our land?

As a result, the number of acres dedicated to hemp cultivation in the US has risen dramatically in recent years. In 2019, there were 78,176 acres of hemp under cultivation in the United States, a nearly 200% increase from the previous year. As of 2021, more than half a million acres were being cultivated. This number continues to grow as the demand for hemp-based products increases.

Hemp is a versatile crop that can be grown for a variety of purposes, including food, fiber, and Hemp Oil. The seeds are a rich source of protein and healthy fats, making them popular in the food industry. The fibers can be used to make textiles, paper, and construction materials, while the oils can be used in personal care products, supplements, and even fuel.

Farming Hemp

Despite the growing popularity of hemp cultivation in the US, there are still challenges that farmers face. One of the biggest challenges is the lack of a consistent market for hemp products. This lack of a consistent market makes it difficult for farmers to plan and invest in their crops. Additionally, there is still a lack of research and information on the best practices for growing hemp, making it difficult for farmers to optimize their yields.

The Future of Hemp

The legalization of hemp cultivation in the United States has opened up many opportunities for farmers and businesses. The demand for hemp-based products is increasing, and the crop has the potential to be a valuable addition to the agricultural industry. However, farmers still face challenges, such as a lack of consistent market and a lack of research on best practices. With continued support and investment, the hemp industry in the US has the potential to continue to grow and thrive.

Dr. Milo Hemp Packaging Adds Some Playfulness To The Pain Relief Aisle -DIELINE ARTICLE

by Chloe Gordon on 06/09/2022 | 3 Minute Read

Dr. Milo is a pain relief serum with packaging that’s much more lighthearted than the purpose behind the brand. Through bright red, lively typography, and an aluminum tube, the brand’s packaging beautifully balances an approachable attitude that’s also highly trustworthy and restorative. While the design is simple, it certainly has a playful side creating standout packaging in a sea of dull medical designs.

Our target was to create a more fun pain relief tube with a 70’s vibe for the older generation while staying poppy and fun. Our primary stacked logo is a custom font, our wave design was inspired by an australian psychedelic rock band and the bright red poppy brand color was inspired by the red cross to convey healing. We’re apart of 1% for the planet, and give back to Regeneration International to promote regenerative farming practices which is great for hemp farmers in America. We’re a Woman owned, family operated, hemp business.

Created by a team of sister, brother, and dad; Joan, David, and Milo. We initially shared Dr. Milo with friends and family seeking an all-natural, safer solution to curing everyday aches and pains and helping loved ones cope with chronic pain. We now get to share this product with the world, and we’re pretty excited about that. Several years ago, our Mom, and wife respectively, was diagnosed with an auto-immune disease, making her live with chronic debilitating pain.

We sourced our top to bottom sustainable packaging in Germany where we found one of the very few companies in the world using a lined aluminum tube. Aluminum is one of the most recyclable materials. Our box is made of recycled cardboard boxes. We then worked with Mac & Roni Creative out of NY to fully design our tube, logo and secondary patterns. Our flower pattern is actually the ARNICA MONTANA flower- a main ingredient in our Relief Lotion.

We wanted to create a product and be a part of her healing journey to find less toxic solutions for pain management. We started with the idea that we could offer something as an alternative solution to pain management. We combined our background in holistic, herbal healing with the advent of the legalization of hemp. Dr. Milo began in our home kitchen; with lots of messy potion experimentation and after its initial success, we decided to form a company. Our company standard was to distribute a product for others seeking a more pain-free life while using the whole plant, all-natural ingredients.

Dr. Milo has since grown and is produced in California, and you can now find us in multiple U.S. locations. We’ve also continued experimenting and are seeking to make more products that offer some peace for your aches and love for your pains.

The History of 4:20 and How to Celebrate with Hemp

 

4:20 has been celebrated by cannabis enthusiasts around the world for decades. But what exactly is 4:20 and how can you celebrate it? This blog post will explore the history of 4:20 and explain how you can use hemp products to commemorate this special day.

The Origins of 4:20

The exact origins of 4/20 are a bit hazy, but some theories have more credence than others. One popular theory suggests that the term originated in 1971 in San Rafael, California at a high school called San Rafael High School. The story goes that a group of five friends known as the “Waldos” coined the phrase after meeting up every day at 4:20 PM near a sculpture of Louis Pasteur on campus to search for an abandoned cannabis crop. Although they never found the crop, they adopted “420” as their code word for smoking pot.

Another theory…

This theory claims that 420 was first used by police officers in California as code for marijuana-related activities. However, there’s no way to confirm this story since it’s mainly based on hearsay and anecdotal evidence.

Celebrating With Hemp Products

4/20 is now widely celebrated around the world by cannabis enthusiasts who use this day to gather with friends and indulge in their favorite pastime. To make your celebration extra special, why not add some hemp products into the mix? Such as… our Dr. Milo Topical Relief Lotion. Hemp products are becoming increasingly popular due to their many beneficial properties—they’re non-intoxicating, vegan-friendly, eco-friendly, and contain essential fatty acids and proteins that can help with joint pain relief, skin health, digestion, stress relief, and so much more. Our Customers reach out daily to tell us all the new way’s their Relief Lotion has helped them.

Games to play on 420 🙂
