CBD Skincare Benefits

CBD can be an effective skincare product because of its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties (protecting skin cells from oxidative stress), as well as its deeper wellness benefits that are tied into the body’s endocannabinoid system. As a result, you can find a variety of popular CBD products for dry and irritated skin, as well as other CBD balms, masks and bath products, all designed to make your skin look younger and feel healthier.

Our CBD skincare collection contains moisturising balms, luxurious foot masks, and even CBD bath bombs. But before we get into the finer details of our skincare CBD and its many benefits, let’s take a look at just what CBD is, and how this popular cannabinoid can be crucial for your beauty and skincare regimen.

What Can CBD Do for Your Skin?

CBD, or cannabidiol, is one of a group of chemical compounds found in the cannabis plant, called cannabinoids. The cannabis plant produces CBD and other cannabinoids in order to protect its surface. Little appendages called trichomes produce cannabinoids, like CBD, to keep the plant’s surface safe from the elements, as well as insect predators. Cannabinoids also attract pollinators. So, in a sense, cannabinoids like CBD are created as skincare supplements for the cannabis plant, itself!

All vertebrates, including humans, produce their own cannabinoids, called endocannabinoids. Endocannabinoids are neurotransmitters that bind to receptors throughout the body, including the central and peripheral nervous systems, as well as other systems and organs. This cell-signalling system is called the endocannabinoid system, and it helps the body’s systems and organs to maintain homeostasis, or balance. This interaction helps the body to regulate such crucial functions as sleep, mood, memory, appetite, motor control, pain management, stress, and much more.

One group of receptors these endocannabinoids help to regulate are called cutaneous ionotropic cannabinoid receptors. These receptors affect such functions as pain and itch perception, epidermal homeostasis, and the promotion and suppression of dermatitis, which is the inflammation of the skin. By helping to maintain balance in these functions, these endocannabinoids go a long way toward preserving the health of the skin.

When plant-based cannabinoids (phytocannabinoids) are introduced into your body, they actually mimic the body’s own endocannabinoids. CBD and CBD’s cannabinoid siblings send messages through those very same receptors and engage (and help to balance) the body’s regulatory system. In terms of skincare, that means the CBD in your skincare product works with the body’s cutaneous receptors, helping to regulate the various skin conditions mentioned above. So, even without other ingredients, the CBD in your CBD mask or CBD balm is already engaging and helping to make your skin healthier!

We should note that CBD has not been approved for medical use in the UK. So, nothing we’ve said here should be construed as medical advice or as a recommendation to use CBD for medical conditions.

How to Incorporate CBD Into Your Beauty Regime

Let’s take a look at our best-selling CBD balms, CBD foot masks, and CBD bath bombs and see how they can benefit your skincare regimen.

Balms

Our skincare collection focuses on CBD products that primarily benefit your skin, including our handy balms. Perfect for a messenger bag or purse, a tin of our CBD Ultra Moisturising Balm provides you with 250mg of pure, natural CBD, plus several active botanical extracts. Your skin will thank you for pampering it with moisturising shea butter, calming evening primrose oil, and soothing oils from lavender, Roman chamomile, and wild orange.

Also available in a 250mg tin, our CBD Calming Balm provides you with relaxing CBD, along with a variety of natural ingredients to soothe and delight your skin. Enjoy moisturising shea butter and German chamomile, as well as soothing lavender and tea tree oils.

Masks

Masks give you all the wellness benefits of CBD and other natural ingredients, as well as the chill experience of lying back and letting the foot mask do its work. This area is often over stressed and worn down from the wear and tear of the day. A good CBD Foot Mask can rejuvenate achy feet and revitalise the skin. With broad spectrum CBD oil and active botanicals, a 50mg CBD Foot Mask can soften your feet and have them feeling fresh and new. Choose from refreshing, relaxing Lavender or cooling, relaxing Peppermint formulas.

Bath Bombs

CBD Bath Bombs allow you to immerse your entire body in 200mg of wellness-boosting CBD, plus a host of essential oils and other active ingredients, including Hawaiian black salt. While it will certainly do wonders for your muscles and joints (not to mention relaxing your mental state), a CBD Bath Bomb can also be just the thing to pamper the skin over your entire body.

When you choose CBDfx skin care products, you get the highest quality CBD and effective, natural ingredients. We encourage you to experiment and explore our entire line of vegan CBD beauty products to find the right ones to suit your needs!

CBD Body Care

CBD is a wonderful ingredient for body care products, thanks to its natural soothing properties. These properties are important in products like our CBD Bath Bombs, mentioned above, which not only pamper your skin, but also ease minor muscle and joint pain. Now available in four innovative formulas, including Recharge, Calming, Soothing, and Hydrating formulas, our CBD Bath Bombs are essential for daily body care.

We also carry a powerful CBD Muscle Balm: Deep Tissue Formula, that’s perfect for soothing sore muscles. This muscle balm comes in a 250mg tin that’s convenient for any backpack or handbag. Just rub it in and enjoy soothing muscle relief. Our CBD Muscle & Joint Balm Stick also soothes sore muscles and joints, and comes in a mess-free stick design. This muscle balm is a must for any gym bag, ensuring quality post-workout pain relief.

You’ll also find two deeply penetrating muscle creams in our CBD body care collection: CBD Muscle & Joint Cream: Cooling Formula and CBD Muscle & Joint Cream: Heating Formula. Each of these CBD hemp creams is designed to deliver quick pain relief to sore muscles and joints.

Beauty Products With the Best CBD Oil

If you’re looking for the best CBD skincare, beauty, and body care products, you should start by finding the best CBD. Many CBD companies use cheap, cost-saving methods, both in the hemp fields and during the oil extraction process, which result in substandard and even potentially tainted CBD oil. Here are some tips on how to find the best CBD oil and the best CBD skincare products in the UK.

It’s important to know under what conditions the hemp used in your CBD product was grown. Hemp is considered a bioaccumulator, meaning that it basically sucks up everything it can from the soil that surrounds it. This is great for growing hemp in various climates and environments, but it’s not so great when that soil contains pesticides, heavy metals, and other harmful chemicals. If those toxins are in your hemp plant’s soil, you can be certain they’ll also be in your CBD moisturiser or mask. So, it’s vital to find CBD culled from hemp that is naturally grown, with no pesticides, GMOs or other such contaminants.

At CBDfx, we also use safe extraction processes, so you never have to worry about solvent residues, as in cheaper CBD products. For people who want a pure and clean CBD skincare product, this should be considered a must-have.

The only way you can be sure the CBD used in your moisturiser or balm is pure is by having access to lab tests conducted by an independent third-party laboratory. Every legitimate CBD company will give you easy access to third-party lab reports, so that you can see exactly how much CBD (and other cannabinoid) content is in your face mask or balm, as well as tests for all of the things that shouldn’t be in your CBD product, such as the aforementioned pesticides and solvents and so forth.

At CBDfx, we make third-party lab reports for our products readily available on our website, so that you can know and trust the CBD product you’re ordering. Your safety and satisfaction are our top priority!
