Oliver Watts, 26, Fedele D Amico, 25, and Alex Roslaniec, 26, from Melbourne, started their company just 20 months ago and have fast made a name for themselves in the skincare industry.
Australian hemp beauty brand Hey Bud Skincare is hopeful that local regulatory developments will eventually allow it to expand its line-up with CBD skin care products.
The brand began sales in August 2019 with a hemp clay mask and its first batch of over 500 units sold out instantly. Since, the brand has added two more products to its portfolio, a hemp facial oil and a hemp moisturiser.
In the past year, the company has been growing around 20% month-on-month, driven in part by the boost in e-commerce and skin care demand that we witnessed last year following the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Aussie hemp-based skincare brand Hey Bud has raised $2 million in funding as its trio of founders gear up for their next phase of growth, with one eye on overseas markets.

Boston Collegeâs president, the Rev. William P. Leahy, is facing growing criticism that he mishandled student complaints about inappropriate behavior by a priest in the late 1990s who has recently been accused of sexual assault.
A DePaul University postgraduate student has alleged that the Rev. Ted Dziak, the former leader of an international Jesuit service group who worked at BC for eight years, forcefully had sex with him at least four times in Central America when the two had been drinking. The alleged assaults happened in 2004, several years after Dziak had left BC, according to The Times-Picayune/The New Orleans Advocate, which first reported the allegations in mid-April.

Hollie Watts put on six stone in eight months after being prescribed anti-depressants by her GP.
“The choice was to either get my mental health under control or not put weight on,” the 26-year old said. “I had to get my head sorted first.”
The mum-of-three from Walsoken, near Wisbech, joined a gym in February last year, but it was closed by lockdown a few weeks later.
Undeterred, she decided to act. For inspiration, she put pictures of how she used to look all over her house.
