Could indoor tanning lotions that contain hemp make you test postive for THC on a drug test?
I know this probably sounds really stupid, but I was looking online for a new tanning lotion and there are some that say THC free. And I know alot of the lotions contain hemp. So I was wondering if there is a reason people may need something THC free. I am just wondering because I tan everyday and I am going to be looking for a new job soon. And if I have to take a drug test, I dont want to look like I smoke weed because of my tanning lotion.

Hemp and pot are not the same thing. Hemp is the common term for the fibrous part of the plant, i.e. the stem. Pot on the other hand is usually the flower buds of the plant, unless someone sold you a bag of schwag! Hehe. THC levels in hemp are very, very low, because THC is concentrated in crystals on the bud, not the stems, and during processing, any crystals that might be on the stem are usually cleaned/fall off. Residual amounts in the vascular tissues (of the plant) is minimal, and not enough to be absorbed through your skin and show up on a drug test.

No, lotions containing higher amounts of THC probably wouldn't anyway. Your body wouldn't absorb very much through the skin.
The oil used in those lotions from hemp contains very tiny amounts of THC. When consumed directly it rarely produces a positive test. For consumption most countries have testing programs to ensure that you can't get that much drug into yourself to set one of those tests off.
After all here, we are talking about industrial hemp which is bred to contain almost no THC in the first place.

Those lotions are THC Free! So, it will NOT make drugs show up in your system.
The great thing about Hemp Seed Oil being a main ingredient is that because it is all natural, not a man-made product, it can be absorbed into the skin more easily-Ending in a better quality product.

hemp its self contains no thc, something to do with the fact hemp is female and marijuana is male or something like that, but no, it would contain no thc, therefore you would not test positive

No, there is no THC in hemp. However, you may test positive for being overly vain. Be yourself, don't use chemicals to change your color
