BD (cannabidiol) can be found in many beauty products these days. Since CBD is a natural ingredient that can add some calm even to the most frazzled of parents, moms are starting to incorporate CBD in their beauty regime. We have rounded up our top five products that we are loving for moms who are ready to hop on the CBD bandwagon. What is CBD oil? CBD oil is from the buds of hemp plants. The buds are the part of the plant that contains a variety of natural chemical compounds that interact with the body’s endocannabinoid system to regulate homeostasis and your general sense of physical well-being. When you take CBD, the cannabinoids can offer supplementary and complementary effects in triggering those receptors. The best part? Hempderived CBD has minimal traces of THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), so you feel balanced without any psychoactive effects.
