FAQs ON CBD

What is CBD?+-

CBD, also known as cannabidiol (ca-nuh-bi-DYE-ol), is a naturally occurring cannabinoid from the cannabis sativa plant. There are over one-hundred different cannabinoids found in the plant. Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), cannabinol (CBN), and cannabigerol (CBG) are some other well-known and researched cannabinoids.

How does CBD work?+-

When CBD is applied topically, it absorbs through the skin’s pores and reacts with the body’s endocannabinoid system. The ECS is made up of endocannabinoid receptors, endocannabinoids, and enzymes that work together to achieve homeostasis in the body. Homeostasis is when the body reaches an optimal state of health with a balanced internal environment. The ECS regulates internal functions like mood, communication between cells, immune response, and more. When there is an imbalance arising from external factors, the endocannabinoid system uses cannabinoids to restore and remedy the imbalance.

What are the benefits of using CBD in skincare?+-

It helps to calm and soothe the skin, making it a great option for those with sensitive or reactive skin. Its hydrating properties ensure deep moisturization, leaving the skin feeling nourished and soft. CBD also plays a role in balancing the complexion, which can be particularly beneficial for those with oily or combination skin types. Additionally, CBD is rich in antioxidants, which help protect the skin from environmental stressors and contribute to a healthier, more radiant complexion. Overall, incorporating CBD into your skincare routine can enhance the skin's appearance and texture, promoting a more balanced and glowing look

What’s the difference between full-spectrum CBD, broad-spectrum CBD, and CBD isolate?+-

Full-spectrum CBD contains all the best parts of the cannabis sativa plant. This includes cannabinoids, terpenes, vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and fatty acids. These compounds work together and create a synergistic effect. Broad-spectrum CBD is a processed form of CBD that has had all THC removed. This is done using additional processing and chemicals. CBD Isolate is the most processed form of CBD. All nutrients, terpenes, and other cannabinoids have been stripped away leaving nothing but pure CBD. This is the cheapest and least effective form of CBD.

What kind of CBD do you use?+-

We use Full-Spectrum CBD, which ensures you receive the complete range of beneficial cannabinoids, terpenes, and other natural compounds.

How long does it take to see results from CBD skincare?+-

The timeframe for noticing results from CBD skincare can vary depending on the individual and the specific product used. Generally, some people may start to see improvements in skin texture and appearance within a few days to a week of regular use. For more significant changes, it might take a few weeks to a couple of months. Consistency is key for achieving the best results.

What should I look for in the ingredients list of CBD skincare products?+-

What’s the difference between CBD and hemp seed oil?+-
