Celebrating the Best Hemp Beauty Products: 2025 Global Green Beauty Awards Winners

The 2025 Global Green Beauty Awards have once again set the benchmark for excellence in sustainable, clean, and green beauty. This year, with over 700 product entries across a wide range of categories, we’ve seen incredible innovation from both household names and passionate indie labels. One standout category that continues to grow in relevance and sophistication is Best Hemp Product — a true reflection of the industry’s shift toward holistic, plant-based skincare.

Whether you're a beauty buyer, brand founder, journalist, or a conscious consumer, these UK-based beauty awards — open globally — offer valuable insights into which hemp-based products are really making an impact. And as we look ahead to the 2026 beauty awards, this spotlight on the top-performing hemp entries provides inspiration for brands considering taking part next year.

Gold Winner – LUMI TUNDRA Pimple Stopper

Leading the category is Estonian brand LUMI, who secured gold with their TUNDRA Pimple Stopper. This targeted treatment impressed judges with its lightweight texture, fast-acting results, and gentle yet effective approach to acne-prone skin. Packed with hemp extract and other botanicals sourced from the Nordic tundra, this product was praised not just for its efficacy but also for its clean formulation.

The Global Green Beauty Awards judging process involves independent testing, with all products trialled by real people over a number of weeks. The LUMI TUNDRA Pimple Stopper consistently received positive feedback for its ability to reduce inflammation and blemishes without over-drying — a common issue with harsher treatments. It’s a winning example of how hemp can be leveraged in high-performance, natural skincare.

Silver Winner – Mamas Medicinals Revitalizer

Taking silver is Mamas Medicinals Revitalizer, an American-made hemp balm with

multifunctional benefits. This all-purpose revitaliser combines full-spectrum hemp extract with a blend of skin-loving essential oils, creating a deeply nourishing treatment for tired, dry, or irritated skin.

Mamas Medicinals may be a small brand, but their ethos and quality made a big impression. Their entry stood out for its focus on whole-body wellness, linking skincare with self-care — a theme that continues to resonate strongly in the global beauty awards circuit.

Bronze Winner – LUMI Moisturising Cleansing Milk

Another big win for LUMI, their Moisturising Cleansing Milk took bronze in the category. Formulated with hemp seed oil, this gentle cleanser is ideal for sensitive skin and offers a soft, non-stripping clean. Its dual ability to remove daily impurities while nourishing the skin barrier earned it high marks from the judges.

LUMI’s dual wins this year underline the strength of their green chemistry and Nordic botanical research — something we’ve seen resonate not only in the hemp category but across several of their product lines.

Highly Commended – Mindful Extracts Mind, Body, Soul Bath Salts

Rounding off the category is a Highly Commended award for Mindful Extracts, whose Mind, Body, Soul Bath Salts provide a calming soak infused with hemp and other wellness botanicals. The sensory experience, soothing scent, and skin-softening qualities made this a favourite among testers.

Hemp’s role here isn’t just skincare — it’s about delivering a spa-like moment of rest and relaxation. With stress management becoming a key concern for beauty and wellness consumers, Mindful Extracts’ bath salts hit the mark for today’s holistic beauty values.

Why Hemp is Trending in Beauty

Hemp has rapidly transitioned from a niche ingredient to a mainstream favourite in natural beauty. Hemp seed oil is rich in omega 3 and 6 fatty acids, antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory compounds. It helps to regulate oil production, soothe irritation, hydrate dry skin, and protect the skin barrier — making it suitable for a wide range of skin types and concerns.

Importantly, hemp is also highly sustainable to grow, requiring minimal water and no pesticides. Its environmental credentials make it a perfect fit for green beauty brands looking to align performance with planet-conscious values. The winners in this category demonstrate just how versatile hemp can be, whether used in targeted treatments, cleansers, balms or body care.

Why These Awards Matter

The Global Green Beauty Awards are judged independently, with no influence from sponsorships or advertising. Each product is tried and tested by a panel of real testers, and results are based on honest, real-world performance. The judging process runs over several weeks to allow adequate time for full product trials.

This integrity has made the Global Green Beauty Awards one of the most respected UK beauty awards on the calendar — with a growing global reach. Big-name brands such as Tata Harper, Rituals, AVON, Floral Street, INIKA Organic, and Paul Mitchell have all taken part. The awards offer credibility, visibility, and a powerful platform for both established and emerging beauty brands.

Thinking About Entering the 2026 Beauty Awards?

If you’re a brand formulating hemp-based skincare or haircare, now is the perfect time to start preparing for the 2026 beauty awards. This year’s winners show that judges are looking for products that balance effectiveness with thoughtful formulation — and that tell a story rooted in authenticity and innovation.

In addition to international recognition, winners receive a digital winners badge, a backlink from the official website (a boost for your SEO), and the option to order a professional perspex trophy. With no hidden fees for logo use and the chance to stand among some of the biggest names in beauty, the Global Green Beauty Awards offer value that lasts far beyond the awards announcement.

Final Thoughts

The hemp category at the 2025 Global Green Beauty Awards highlighted the growing power of plants in skincare. From the clinical precision of LUMI to the wellness-driven approach of Mindful Extracts and Mamas Medicinals, these winning products showcase the future of green beauty — effective, ethical, and beautifully formulated.
