How can CBD be used in skincare?

Firstly we need to know how the human body absorbs CBD.

There are a number of ways that CBD can enter the body. For example, when consuming CBD orally, drops will be placed under the tongue which is probably the most efficient and consistent method in order to enrich & maintain a balanced Endocannabinoid System.

As well as our internal Endocannabinoid System, our skin cells contain cannabinoid receptors and applying CBD topically can provide great benefits.

CBD works in skincare by interacting with our Endocannabinoid system (ECS).

The ECS is responsible for regulating a variety of bodily functions, including our skin’s health.

CBD is known to calm irritated skin and reduce redness. When we apply CBD to our skin, it can help to regulate oil production, reduce inflammation, and promote healthy skin cell growth. One of the most significant benefits of using CBD in skincare is its ability to reduce inflammation which is a leading cause of skin issues, such as acne, rosacea, and eczema.

When it comes to anti-ageing, CBD has been shown to be highly effective. It can assist to stimulate collagen production, which reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Additionally, CBD has been shown to have moisturising properties, which can help to keep the skin looking plump and hydrated.

In conclusion, CBD is a fantastic multi-purpose ingredient for skincare products. Its ability to reduce inflammation, regulate oil production, and promote healthy skin cell growth make it an excellent choice for those with a variety of skin concerns.

Whether you’re looking to calm irritated skin or reduce the signs of ageing, CBD may be the perfect addition to your skincare routine.
