The skin is our calling card, which is why everyone in the world cares about its health and appearance. When our skin is unwell, we feel unfit to go out into the outside world.

Because it is the first thing other people notice about us.

But the skin, besides representing us on the outside, is also the largest organ we have in the body, it protects us from external attacks and that is why it must be kept healthy.

The world of skin care is constantly evolving and scientists are looking for natural and effective solutions to address a wide range of skin problems. In this context, CBD cosmetics have attracted attention as a revolutionary novelty for skin health.

These products, enriched with cannabidiol extracts derived from the cannabis plant, are rapidly gaining popularity among those who desire natural beauty and radiant skin.

For this very reason, we too want to investigate the benefits of CBD cosmetics to find out how they can alleviate inflammation, moisturise the skin, reduce signs of ageing and much more.

The versatility of this natural substance offers solutions for those suffering from skin problems such as acne, dryness, redness and irritation, as well as for those who simply wish to preserve the health and youthfulness of their skin in a gentle manner.

If you are curious about the benefits of CBD cosmetics and how they can revolutionise your beauty routine, read on.

The use of CBD in cosmetics

CBD, or cannabidiol, is a natural compound produced by the cannabis plant. Unlike THC, another compound found in cannabis, CBD has no psychoactive effects and is known for its potential beneficial properties for the body, including the skin.

CBD cosmetics range from serums to moisturising creams, lip balms and more. These cosmetics take advantage of CBD’s anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and moisturising properties. Cannabidiol can help calm skin inflammation, reduce acne, alleviate dryness and improve the overall appearance of the skin.

In addition, CBD can help maintain sebum balance, making the skin less oily or dry, depending on individual needs. Its ability to reduce cellular oxidation makes it a powerful ally in preventing skin ageing.

The use of CBD in cosmetics is revolutionising the way we care for our skin, offering a natural and practical solution to many common skin problems that cause us pain.

How does CBD work?

CBD takes action through interaction with our body’s endocannabinoid system. The endocannabinoid system is a complex biological system composed of cannabinoid receptors, endocannabinoids produced by our body and enzymes that degrade them. This system plays a key role in maintaining homeostasis, i.e. the body’s internal balance.

CBD, being a phytocannabinoid, interacts with cannabinoid receptors of the endocannabinoid system. Specifically, CBD is known to act on two main receptors, known as CB1 and CB2. These receptors are distributed throughout the body, including the central nervous system and the immune system.

CBD’s ability to influence these receptors allows for a number of beneficial effects on the skin. For instance, its interaction with CB1 receptors can help regulate sebum production, helping to keep the skin in balance. In addition, CBD can reduce inflammation by binding to CB2 receptors, making it a powerful ally against inflammatory skin conditions such as acne.

Finally, CBD can increase the production of endocannabinoids in the body, further helping to promote homeostasis. This complex mechanism of interaction with the endocannabinoid system makes CBD cosmetics an increasingly popular choice among those seeking a natural skin care solution.

The benefits of CBD for the skin

Many people are tired of getting limited or unwanted results from over-the-counter skin care products or traditional medications. They are tired of struggling with a problem that they may have been carrying around for many years, such as acne, for example.

Fighting this kind of disease is challenging and often frustrating, because drugs may prove to be inadequate or even cause major side effects.

Thus, attention is gradually returning to natural products, as the human body is made to be in harmony with nature. In this context, CBD and cosmetics were destined to meet.

Let’s find out together what the main benefits of CBD cosmetics are and how they can be used.

CBD anti-inflammatory and antibacterial

CBD exerts an anti-inflammatory action on the skin, helping to reduce redness, itching and swelling. This property is due to its ability to inhibit the activity of certain molecules involved in the inflammatory process, such as cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β).

On the other hand, people have been relying on CBD as an anti-inflammatory for thousands of years, both locally and widely. Among the various active ingredients in cannabis that help fight inflammation are terpenes, which are also present in CBD products with full spectrum formulation.

CBD also has antibacterial properties, which can be useful in treating certain skin conditions, such as acne and eczema. Several scientific studies have shown that CBD is effective against a wide range of bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus, the bacterium responsible for many skin infections.

CBD’s anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties make it an ideal ingredient for a range of cosmetic products, including creams and lotions for treating acne and eczema, moisturising products or for treating skin ageing, as we will see in a moment.

By acting on receptors of the endocannabinoid system, CBD can calm inflammatory responses in the skin, reducing redness and swelling.

CBD for skincare

The use of CBD to maintain healthy skin can vary according to individual needs, but there are several common ways to incorporate it into your skincare routine even without an existing disorder.

To moisturise the skin, reduce inflammation and improve its general health, a CBD cream or lotion is recommended.

Then there are serums, concentrated formulations that can be used to address specific problems, such as wrinkles or dark spots. Applied before moisturising cream, CBD serums can provide a targeted dose of this beneficial compound.

CBD facial masks are also an effective way to relax while enjoying the benefits of CBD. These masks are enriched with cannabidiol and other beneficial ingredients and can help hydrate and soothe the skin.

Another suitable skin care product is CBD drops. Applying CBD oil regularly to the face through massage promotes the treatment of specific areas as well as the general health of the skin.

CBD to eliminate impurities from the face

The use of the active ingredient to remove impurities from the face is a practice that is becoming increasingly popular due to CBD’s properties. In particular, in addition to the anti-inflammatory and antibacterial action already mentioned, it works on further levels.

First of all, it protects against free radicals. Free radicals are unstable molecules that can damage skin cells, contributing to skin ageing. CBD has antioxidant properties, which can help protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals.

It then stimulates the production of collagen and elastin. These are proteins responsible for the youthfulness of the skin. CBD can help stimulate the production of these proteins, helping to keep the skin healthy and youthful.

It then soothes irritated skin, calming redness and swelling.

Finally, some CBD products also contain natural exfoliating properties, which can remove dead skin cells and surface impurities. This promotes clearer and brighter skin.

CBD in psoriasis

Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune skin disease that causes the formation of red, scaly, itchy patches. The exact cause of psoriasis is unknown, but it is believed to be due to a combination of genetic and environmental factors.

The results of scientific studies on the use of CBD for psoriasis are promising. A recent 2023 review on phytocannabinoids in psoriasis pharmacotherapy stated that ‘Given the biological activity of phytocannabinoids, they have become the focus of research as components of pharmacotherapy for psoriasis.

CBD is believed to exert its beneficial effects through a number of mechanisms, including reducing inflammation and cell proliferation. In fact, CBD may help reduce the proliferation of keratinocytes, the skin cells that multiply too quickly in psoriasis.

In addition, CBD can help release anti-inflammatory cytokines, which can help reduce the inflammation associated with psoriasis.

Studies have shown that topical application of a CBD gel may be effective in reducing the severity and extent of psoriatic lesions. Oral intake of CBD may also be effective in soothing the inflammation and itching associated with psoriasis.Obviously, it is important to consult a doctor before using CBD for psoriasis. The doctor can help determine whether CBD is an appropriate treatment and can provide advice on how to use CBD safely and effectively.

CBD with anti-wrinkle effect

The anti-inflammatory action of the active ingredient is also omnipresent in CBD as an antiwrinkle agent. Skin ageing can also bring with it inflammation, and CBD is unbeatable on this front.

A hemp face cream is perfect as an anti-wrinkle, to be used daily in one’s wellness routine.

In addition to this, CBD has antioxidant properties, which can help protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals.

What’s more, CBD can help stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, as we mentioned earlier. In this way, it helps reduce the appearance of wrinkles.

For those who want a remedy without side effects for regular use, CBD for cosmetic use is the most suitable of the natural treatments.

How to use CBD products on the face

The use of CBD products for the face requires proper application to obtain maximum benefits for the skin.

Here is how best to use these products:

• Make sure your face is clean and dry, use a mild cleanser to remove make-up, dirt and excess sebum;
• Apply toner, if you use it in your routine, to rebalance the pH of the skin and prepare it to better absorb CBD;
• Use the dropper that came with your CBD oil to dose the desired amount, usually 2-3 drops are sufficient and you should apply it directly on the skin of your face, avoiding the eye area;
• If you are using a CBD serum, apply it first, serums are concentrated formulations, so use them to address specific problems such as wrinkles or dark spots;
• If you are using a CBD cream instead, apply it to the affected area as the last product;
• Gently massage the product onto the face using upward circular movements, this improves absorption and stimulates blood circulation.

Start with a simple skincare routine and observe how your skin reacts. For best results, be sure to follow the specific instructions for each product.

Consistency is the key to seeing improvements in the health and appearance of the skin.If you are interested in experiencing the benefits of CBD products for your skin, we invite you to visit the Maria CBD Oil shop.
