Want to improve the appearance of blemishes? Perhaps you’re seeking a more youthful complexion? Or maybe you’re looking to add moisture to particularly dry patches of skin?
Whatever it may be, it might be worth adding CBD (cannabidiol) to your daily beauty regime. After all, this cannabinoid has healing properties and is believed to reduce inflammation.
Many people question whether CBD oil is legal in the UK and how safe it is to incorporate into their skincare ritual. However, CBD doesn’t contain the psychoactive compound found in the Cannabis sativa plant (tetrahydrocannabinol or THC for short). That means, when you use CBD products, you won’t get ‘high’.
In recent years, CBD has taken the beauty industry by storm – with some of the most renowned brands pushing the benefits of this natural remedy for everything from acne to eczema and psoriasis.
Whilst there are a plethora of CBD skincare products on the market today – all of which are super simple to incorporate into your morning and night beauty routine – we’ve listed our top 4 picks below.
CBD oil
There are several ways CBD oil can be taken.
You can either take it sublingually by placing a few drops under your tongue and waiting 30-60 seconds before swallowing, or you can mix it with your food and drink.
Sometimes, depending on the product, you may wish to apply the oil directly to the skin – targeting any areas of redness, dryness or inflammation.
Most people opt to use CBD oil as part of their evening skincare routine, helping to calm the mind in preparation for a blissful night’s sleep. However, depending on the dose of your oil, you could also use it in the morning to brighten your complexion.
CBD cream
Add CBD lotion to your daily skincare routine – ideally after exfoliating – to give your skin a radiant glow.
This vegan-friendly formula is enriched with vitamins and kind to sensitive skin. Its detoxing properties help to protect the skin from everyday impurities, allowing the pores to breathe.
If you’re prone to breakouts or redness, our CBD skincare range has calming effects that reduce blotchiness and inflammation too.
To target troublesome areas and wake up with a glowing complexion, we recommend using CBD sports balms and rubs before bedtime. This way, you can get your beauty sleep while the formula works its magic!
CBD gummies
If you want to reap the benefits of CBD, but don’t fancy adding any more lotions and potions to your beauty routine, our CBD edibles are ideal.
Not only are they super easy to incorporate into your routine, but they’re super fun and tasty! Ours are even gluten-free and vegan-friendly!
CBD gummies and edibles are best taken in the morning or during the day when you need your daily dose of CBD. Taking them late at night could keep you awake due to the sugar content. Take too many, and you may start to feel sluggish.
CBD capsules
If you already take vitamins and pulses as part of your daily supplement routine, maybe you’d consider adding CBD capsules to the mix?
Every capsule is infused with 20mg of CBD, providing a consistent dose. They also contain vitamin D3 which helps to regulate the amount of calcium and phosphate in the body – keeping your teeth, bones and muscles healthy.
For the best results, we advise taking two tablets per day – one in the morning and one in the evening, with a glass of water.
