CBD is not a new thing in the market. There are a lot of products made from CBD on the shelves. Some of the products made from CBD are oils, gummies, tinctures, topical, and capsules.
CBD topical is among the top CBD products that people use. Some people use these topical as part of their daily routine for skincare. Topical is in different formulations, including creams, lotions, and balms. Lotions have a high moisture content as compared to balms and creams. On the other hand, creams are thick. This means they have very little to no moisture content. Below is a list of some CBD topicals you should consider to make your skin glow during the holiday.
What CBD Does to Your Skin
According to Shovan (2017), the two major causes of aging skin, hyperpigmentation, and acne are inflammation brought about by the endocannabinoid system and radical destruction of the epidermis. The endocannabinoid system is a formation of matrix cell receptors whose function is to balance nearly all skin functions. Battista & Di Tommaso (2012) stated that the endocannabinoid system is important in maintaining homeostasis. Although research is still underway, the available findings pack up the already present findings. Producing sebum in large amounts makes one likely to suffer from acne. According to Jin (2018), CBD has anti-inflammatory effects on melanocytes, which are skin cells responsible for sebum production. Moreover, CBD has a soothing effect that helps one deal with pain and inflammation.
How to Utilize CBD Topicals
CBD topicals are administered on the skin. The application of the topicals varies depending on the product. For instance, if you have a spray, cleanser, mask, or moisturizer, you will apply them just like any regular skincare product. It is wise to follow the guidelines highlighted on the packages that come with the topicals to apply them correctly. According to Ross (2017), too much of a substance on the skin becomes harmful. Therefore, check the amount of CBD in the package and consult your doctor to avoid harming your skin. Below are some of the topicals that will complement your holiday skin.
