DOES CBD-INFUSED SKINCARE PRODUCTS REALLY WORK? By Jacquie Parish, the Jacquie ooh Collection What is CBD? CBD stands for cannabidiol. Cannabidiol is a nonpsychoactive compound that comes from hemp plants which can be used in a variety of products such as skincare. CBD oil in skincare has a wide variety of “anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antioxidant properties” that can be harnessed as “daily vitamins for your skin.” CBD is getting under our skin, literally as well as figuratively. The market of skincare products featuring cannabidiol as the special ingredient has exploded ever since Congress passed the Farm Bill in December 2018, which legalized the use of hemp-based CBD with less than 0.3 percent THC. THC is what gets you high in simple terms. What are the benefits of using skincare products infused with CBD oil?

Let’s take a look... CBD infused skincare products can reduce puffiness, swelling, and even soreness. Why? Because the CBD activates the TRPV1 receptor in skin cells. The TRPV1 receptor regulates pain, temperature, and inflammation. CBD infused skincare products are packed with antioxidants (like vitamins A, C, and E), which protect the skin from free radicals, such as UV rays, smoke, and other environmental pollutants. The anti-inflammatory properties of CBD can be extremely beneficial when it comes to reducing skin blemishes-in some cases potentially clearing them up completely. It works because of the calming effects of CBD which can diminish inflammation as well as breakouts and the redness associate with acne.
When looking for products with CBD oil it is best to look for products that have full-spectrum CBD oil in them. Fullspectrum items work better with your entire endocannabinoid system because they are extracted from the whole plant and contain a diverse cannabinoid profile, meaning they preserve off of the therapeutic cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids that occur naturally in hemp. The Jacquie ooh Collection has an amazing CBD infused product which is their top-selling Calming Butter. This whipped butter is filled with essential oils that have relaxation properties, vitamins, and full-spectrum CBD oil used for pain and relaxation.
