Due to its powerful potential for anti-aging properties, remedial care for acne or eczema, and natural relief for sensitive skin, CBD is a rapidly growing solution that more and more people are adding to their skincare routines. The second most prevalent ingredient of the cannabis plant, CBD contains the healing and calming properties of hemp without the intoxicating effects of THC.

​the top ten reasons to add CBD to your skincare routine. ​

1. Combat Acne

​Occasional or chronic issues with acne? Reoccurring acne is something many people try countless products to resolve. CBD may be the answer to acne that you have been waiting for. The overproduction of sebum, an oily waxy substance produced by your body's sebaceous glands, is thought to be one of the contributing factors of acne. CBD has an anti-inflammatory effect specifically on sebocytes. This helps your body to regulate the amount of oil it is producing in your skin. Adding CBD to your skincare routine can help reduce issues of both facial and body acne. It can also reduce the factors that contribute to acne scars.

2.  Eczema and Psoriasis Aide

CBD skincare products may also be effective in treating other skin issues, such as eczema and psoriasis. Skin is the largest organ in the human body. It protects us from the elements and microbes, it helps regulate our temperature and allows us to feel and touch. There are many factors that contribute to issues of inflammation in the skin.  In a 2020 study, twenty participants with self-reported eczema used CBD cream and then reported on their symptoms. Fifty percent of participants reported that their eczema improved by more than 60 percent. 

​Psoriasis is an abnormal immune condition that promotes inflammation, which can affect the skin or the joints. Research is still being done to explore the practical applications of treating psoriasis with CBD, but emerging studies are showing improved skin hydration and elasticity combined with reduced skin inflammation when using CBD. Consult with your medical professional to discuss the positive effects CBD may have with treating your psoriasis or your psoriatic arthritis. 

3.  Rejuvenate your skin

​CBD can heal and rejuvenate your skin. The medicinal properties of CBD can balance your complexion and make your skin look and feel fresh and new. Because it is a plant-based source of hydration for your skin, CBD can soothe and heal cracked, dry, inflammed skin and bring a natural glow to the surface. Applying CBD topically connects with your body's nearest cannabinoid receptors through the pores in your skin. Both CBD and THC have a molecular structure that is comparable to compounds that your body produces naturally.

4. Reduce signs of aging

​Your skin regenerates itself approximately every 27 days. Adding CBD to your skincare routine will help your body maintain the health and vitality of your skin and keep it looking young. High antioxidants are found in quality CBD. It can soothe inflammation and reduce how noticeable your wrinkles are and balance ruddy skin tones. Redness and blotchy patches are often associated with signs of aging. The healing compounds that naturally exist in CBD can reduce and reverse these elements and make your skin look and feel young again.

5. Reduces Inflammation

​Muscle aches or swelling? CBD is often used for it's anti-inflammatory properties. CBD interacts with your body's endocannabinoid receptors, therefore, it can help to balance an improper immune response in your body. This helps reduce inflammation. It can help for both chronic and acute inflammation on contact. CBD skin products come in balms, creams and salves. If you are dealing with joint pain, swelling, nerve pain or inflammatory skin conditions, talk with your doctor to discuss whether CBD can be a natural tool to help reduce inflammation and bring needed relief. 

​6. Combats free radical damage

​Free radicals are unstable atoms that can damage tissue cells in our body, causing illness and aging. CBD, like other antioxidants, interrupts free radical chain reactions, capturing free radicals or transforming them into less active forms. The healing properties of cannabidiol offers some serious antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits which can be beneficial in treating skin concerns like inflammation, dryness and free radical damage. Your body has natural defenses to stop free radicals, but imbalances happen, especially during stress. Supplementing antioxidants, like CBD, can help your body restore itself. 

7. CBD Oil for Sensitive Skin

​Skincare routines vary widely and many products on the market are not designed to benefit those with sensitive skin. CBD oil has been found to have significant soothing properties. For people with skin sensitivities, the natural calming and balancing effects of CBD can minimize issues of irritation. Environmental triggers and circumstances impact people of all skin types. Incorporating CBD into your skincare routine is a non-invasive way to maintain your skin's health.

8. Plant based moisturizer

​Using skin care products that source their ingredients from the earth will nourish your skin naturally. The therapeutic elements of the cannabis plant have long been known to the health care world, sourced for pain management and helping neurological issues. Beauty companies are also getting in on the benefits because of the plant's amazing bioavailability to our bodies. The vitamins featured in plant-based skincare products are vital to maintaining the health of your skin.

9. Natural alternatives to steroids 

​Because it reduces inflammation, CBD could be an alternative to consider for skin conditions which would otherwise require powerful antihistamine medications and topical or oral steroids. The more powerful drug, the higher risk for potential side effects. CBD can be a more natural option for people who need to reduce inflamed skin conditions and restore the health of their skin. This subject is addressed in a new book about CBD as a Skin Care Solution. "Our skin is about much more than just the absence of disease," writes Dr. Manisha Singal in her book, 'The CBD Skincare Solution: The Power of Cannabidiol for Healthy Skin.' 'It also represents how we look and feel, and we all want to look younger and more attractive." 

10. Overall wellness 

​Your body is an entire system that works within itself to absorb and operate effectively. When your overall wellness is up or down, the effects show in your skin. CBD reduces anxiety and promotes healthy sleep, which can help our overall wellness and keep our skin hydrated and healthy. Because fatigue and stress are strong contributing factors to anxiety, applying CBD lotion or oil can reduce these issues and help your muscles to stop carrying tension. 

When you apply CBD to your skin, it does not enter your bloodstream, so it is not likely to have any negative side effects. It's always a good idea to test a small amount of CBD cream or oil first, just to observe any possible adverse or allergic reactions. If an allergic reaction does occur, it is likely another ingredient found in your lotion and not caused by the CBD itself. Always check labels and find pure products like Blue Lake CBD that contain minimal added chemicals. Add CBD to your skincare routine and find the balance your body needs today.
