What is CBD?
CBD (or cannabidiol) is the second-most prevalent cannabinoid found in the Cannabis Sativa plant, just behind its psychoactive cousin THC (or tetrahydrocannabinol). However, unlike THC, CBD does not produce any intoxicating effects or a “high” feeling in users.
For centuries it has been used as a medicine for treating various conditions and is now becoming increasingly popular again, particularly in skin care products. Because of its ability to soothe sensitive skin and its anti-inflammatory properties, its application includes facial creams, lotions, and serums. Due to its lipophilic nature (ability to combine with fatty acids), it can penetrate deep into the epidermis layer of the skin, where it helps nourish cells with essential nutrients such as vitamins A, C & E as minerals like calcium and iron.
Consumed in various ways, it can also reduce stress levels, improve sleep quality, as therapy for pain and inflammation, and even help treat conditions like anxiety and depression.
The Ingredients in a CBD Skin Cream
Manufacturers often add CBD, or cannabidiol, to oils such as hemp seed oil to create a more potent product. This ingredient is then used in many skin care products, such as creams and lotions.
One of the most common forms of CBD used in these creams is broad-spectrum CBD, which contains only trace amounts or no THC at all. This makes it an attractive choice for those looking to avoid any potential psychoactive effects of using a cannabinoid-based product. Broad-spectrum CBD also offers additional benefits due to the variety of other cannabinoids and terpenes within the extract, such as increased potency and enhanced entourage effects.
CBD creams have been designed to be a highly effective moisturizing cream that can also provide additional health benefits. The combination of oils (like coconut or olive oil) and water in these creams creates a protective barrier over the skin that helps keep moisture locked in while still allowing it to breathe. Additionally, the inclusion of terpenes provides antioxidant-free radical protection, and vitamin E aids in healing through faster cell repair.
