Cannabidiol, or CBD, is a phytocannabinoid commonly found in high concentrations certain strains of hemp. It is one of at least 113 cannabinoids discovered in the cannabis plant and is non-intoxicating in its effects. Medicinal benefits of CBD have been well researched and deemed safe by the World Health Organization. There’s no doubt CBD is a powerful phytochemical with incredible healing potential. Research shows that CBD may be effective in alleviating anxiety, chronic pain and insomnia. Also known for its healing properties, CBD offers antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits which can be beneficial in treating skin conditions such as inflammation, dryness and free radical damage.

CAbsolutely! There are different kinds of Cannabis plants, and they have a different concentration in Cannabinoids: The Marijuana plants (high in THC, low in CBD) and the Industrial Hemp plants (high in CBD, less than 0.3 % THC) and of course crossbreeds in between. According to the 2018 Farm Bill, cannabinoids derived from industrial hemp, containing less than 0.3% THC, are legal. Currently CBD is legal in all 50 states.

THC and CBD are cannabinoids that derive from the Cannabis Sativa species. However, each come in different concentrations depending on the plant you are using. Cannabinoids are similar to messengers we use in our own bodies (called endocannabinoids) which fit into specific receptors, the Cannabinoid receptors. There are two different kinds of receptors, CB 1 receptor, primarily in our brain and nervous system and plays a huge role in anxiolytic & pain control effects, as well in mental alteration. CB 2 receptor, is found in our skin & immune cells and sebaceous glands and it modulates inflammation, pain control and oil production. THC primarily binds to the CB 1 receptor and has a psychotropic effect giving the euphoric “high” feeling. Whereas, CBD primarily binds to the CB 2 receptor and will never give the “high” feeling and is thought to work with other elements in the body, linked to feelings of well-being.

All cannabidiol-infused products are formulated using full-spectrum CBD oil, broad-spectrum CBD oil or CBD isolate. Full-spectrum CBD oil, contains all the compounds found in hemp, including trace amounts of THC, typically less than 0.3%. Broad-spectrum CBD oil, on the other hand, contains a range of cannabinoids, terpenes and flavonoids derived from hemp, but no THC. CBD isolate is the purest version of CBD. It doesn’t contain any other compounds that you find in a hemp plant. This form of CBD oil is best for facial skin as it's pure, doesn't clog pores and is packed with skin-rejuvenating antioxidants.
