Recently, CBD’s miraculous healing powers for skin have opened the skincare market’s eyes as a new, innovative, and effective treatment for skin conditions. CBD, which doesn’t make you high, as THC does, is regarded as a safe product by the World Health Organization (WHO). Since WHO’s endorsement, CBD is all the rage for health care, including skincare. If you want clear, radiant skin, CBD is the answer.
3 Skin Types that CBD Can Treat
Although CBD is for all skin types, there are three in particular that gain the most. CBD treats acne-prone, aging or wrinkled, and sensitive skin. The benefits, you’ll see, are found in its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and soothing properties. Keep in mind that CBD only works on the skin as a topical.
You can either buy the CBD cream in a store or marijuana dispensary or make it yourself. Making it yourself ensures that you’re getting real CBD since you’ll be researching CBD oil that you buy to use in your homemade cream or lotion.
You can also make your CBD for skin cream or lotion by starting from scratch, meaning directly from seeds. Using cannabis seeds in 2020 to grow your plants is an excellent way to ensure that your CBD cream or lotion is authentic. Once your cannabis plants are grown and you’ve extracted the CBD, mix the CBD oil into a cream or lotion, then apply directly on your skin. This is how you get the most benefit from CBD for the skin.
Here’s how CBD benefits your skin:
Acne-Prone Skin
If you think of your acne as an inflammatory condition, understanding how CBD helps is simple. First, it’s proven that acne is an inflammatory condition. Second, it has been established that CBD reduces inflammation. So, if you use CBD as a topical (placed directly on the skin), the CBD will clear up your acne and soothe your skin. Second, CBD is thought to have the potential to reduce excess sebum (oil) production. This could result from the application of CBD topical since CBD can balance the skin’s oil.

Aging or Wrinkled Skin
Since CBD comes from a plant, it has antioxidant effects. For this reason, CBD for people with aging or wrinkled skin sees it as a miracle lotion. Wrinkles, skin dullness, and reddish skin tone are now things of the past thanks to CBD’s ability to heal free-radical damage and decrease inflammation.
Sensitive Skin
CBD has skin soothing, calming, and normalizing effects. Even the most sensitive skins can benefit from using CBD for their skin sensitivity, including redness and outbreaks.
As CBD becomes a growing trend in the healthcare industry, including the skincare industry, more research is necessary to confirm its skin healing capabilities.
If you want to use CBD for your skin, consult with your doctor or dermatologist first. They will know the best answers to all of your CBD for skin questions.
