CBD Skin Care Guide with cbdMD Botanicals...

Skin is the largest organ in your body - and one of the most visible. Your skin is subjected to all kinds of stresses throughout your life, from weather, pollutants, hormones, sun exposure, and the natural aging process. So it's not surprising that it needs a little TLC to look and feel its best.

That's why cbdMD has created cbdMD Botanicals, our special line of CBD skin care products. Combined with other high-quality ingredients, CBD can bring that extra nurturance your skin needs to stay soft and radiant.

In this guide, we'll explain how CBD can help your skin and give you an overview of our full line of products. We'll explain how you can build a daily and weekly routine with the different products for complete face and body care. Then you'll be ready to pick out which ones work best for your skin type and lifestyle.

Onward!

Why Use CBD for Skin Care?

To understand how CBD can function in skin care, you need to know how it interacts with your body.

The Endocannabinoid System

Elsewhere on this blog, we've explained that CBD interacts with your endocannabinoid system (ECS). The ECS is involved in many different bodily functions, but overall it supports homeostasis: the balance your body maintains in the face of various environmental pressures.

Topical CBD Benefits

When you take CBD internally, this can help you feel calm and relaxed. But your skin has endocannabinoid receptors too, which can interact with topical CBD products in more targeted ways.

Research into the benefits of topical CBD is still ongoing, but many users find that it's as calming and balancing for skin as for everywhere else. We've already successfully combined CBD with pain medicines to make extra-soothing topical products, so why not harmonize it with the best of skin care?

The Best CBD Skincare Products

By combining CBD with other ingredients skin loves, the benefits of CBD for skin care are even greater. We'll be discussing some of these ingredients in depth in upcoming posts. But the key point for cbdMD Botanicals is that we keep it natural - no harsh chemicals, artificial perfumes, or dyes.

Better yet, all of our products are cruelty-free, paraben-free, gluten-free, and non-GMO, and only two of our products contain any kind of animal product (beeswax, to be precise). That way, we ensure that all our CBD skin care products are healthy both for you and for the planet.

How to Build a CBD Skin Care Routine

While we do have a few products for the body, most of our CBD beauty products are for the face. For your face, we recommend a twice-daily routine - every morning and evening - following a sequence like this:

Nourish with a CBD Face Oil, Serum, or Toner

Start your routine with a facial cleanser of your choice. Once your face is clean, it's primed to receive some extra nutrition. We've got three special formulas to keep your skin glowing.

Moisturize with a CBD Face Cream

As a last step, you want to seal in all of that good stuff and protect your skin with a good moisturizer. We've got four that are good for daily facial care

  • Heavenly Hydration Facial Lotion: For all skin types, a light moisturizer with hyaluronic acid, argan oil, and apricot oil.
  • Clearskin Moisture: Even oily skin needs some moisture after you've given it a thorough cleaning and toning. Clearskin Moisture provides light hydration enhanced with turmeric, vitamin C, and willow bark to avoid clogging pores.
  • Adore Me Eye & Lip Cream: The thin skin on the lips and around the eyes can be especially vulnerable to dryness and cracking. Adore Me includes argan oil, jojoba oil, and multiple vitamins for extra nourishment.
  • Renewal Night Cream: As the name implies, this is an evening-only product: a heavy CBD face cream to put on your face before bed so it can deeply nourish your skin overnight. Good for dry and mature skin.

Care for Your Body with CBD Lotion

With your daily facial-care routine in place, you can explore our other CBD skin care products designed for the rest of the body. All of these are good for all skin types:

  • Everyday Moisturizing Lotion: As the name implies, a good daily moisturizer to put on after bathing, with coconut and apricot oils. Essential oils of orange and grapefruit give it a pleasant citrus scent.
  • Mega Moisture Hands & Feet Lotion: A heavier CBD skin cream with shea butter, argan oil, aloe vera, and beeswax, especially helpful as the weather gets colder and dryer.
  • Luv Me Tender Soothing Lotion: A creamy moisturizer that's especially good for sensitive or irritated places. It also includes aloe vera as well as oils of tea tree, lavender, and peppermint for extra soothing.

Intensive CBD Skin Care Products

So that covers your daily CBD skin care. But sometimes, your face could use a little extra TLC, whether due to weather or just normal wear and tear. To that end, we've developed several products for use once or twice a week, or occasionally as needed:

  • Perfect Polish Micro-Exfoliant: A facial exfoliant with rice flour to lift away dead skin cells and leave your complexion looking brighter.
  • Gorgeous Glo Rose Mask: Rejuvenates skin while hydrating with rose oil, avocado oil, and bentonite clay.
  • Clearskin Be Gone: A concentrated formula of willow bark, cedarwood oil, and turmeric for unsightly spots.

And as an added bonus, we offer Tried & True Four Thieves Spray, which isn't actually a skincare product, but will help keep your whole environment naturally clean. Based on a legendary formula used by a band of thieves in medieval France, it includes essential oils of rosemary, lemon, clove, cinnamon, and eucalyptus in a grain-alcohol base. Try spritzing it in the air, on your linens, in the car, or anywhere you want its unique, invigorating scent.
