In our last post, we talked about the benefits of CBD for your skin. Early research suggests that CBD can improve skin conditions like acne and eczema.
CBD, short for cannabidiol, is one of the main cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant. The other main cannabinoid is THC, or tetrahydrocannabinol. Unlike THC, CBD is not psychoactive so slathering it onto your skin won’t get you high.
There’s a long list of proposed benefits of CBD on health, including for the skin. We created an infographic that lists some of the benefits for your skin and the skin conditions that CBD may treat.
Remember, research into the benefits of CBD is limited. For example, the best CBD dosages for the skin aren’t known. So choosing the right product for your skin condition and skin type may require a trial-and-error approach. It’s also a good idea to buy your products from a dispensary where the workers are cannabis experts and have a deep understanding about the products that they sell.
If you’re looking for CBD skin care products, we recommend The Naked Bubble product line. We like this brand because it lists how much CBD is in every product. And the other ingredients are natural, like sunflower oil, shea butter, and tea tree oil.
You’re welcome to download and share the infographic. We ask that you credit Comfort Tree Natural Remedies.
