Have you experienced any dry skin? Acne? Sensitive? Is it all of the above? Have you tried CBD skincare?
The buzzy ingredient has clearly crossed over from the health world to become a beauty must-have, but evaluations from those who’ve integrated it into their skincare routine tell us we need to jump on board ASAP.
Kloris, the skincare brand on everyone’s lips, has produced a range of products to actively support stressed skin and help brighten and level skin tone, with the ingredient on everyone’s lips, CBD (cannabidiol), at the centre.
We’re sure you’ve heard of the substance as a means to treat anxiety or sleeplessness, or to relieve period cramps, but many people are now finding the transformative impact it can have on their complexion.
CBD has been praised as an anti-inflammatory element for its capacity to help reduce swelling, discomfort, or redness from existing breakouts, control oil production, or alleviate irritation caused by eczema or psoriasis.
Yet, with many cosmetics on the market claiming to contain CBD but really containing none, these are the items that might have a significant influence on your face.
Kloris’ CBD Superboost Face Oil, which is ideal for all genders, skin tones, and skin types (hello, oily, dry, or combo skin), is an excellent treatment for skin redness and rosacea.
One customer said it all but erased the dry areas from their face, while another said the oil had a ‘noticeable reduction in redness’ and sat nicely under makeup, while one remarked it ‘does wonders for skin’.
‘All the fine lines on my face are much smoother and the dullness is totally gone! I’ve noticed my skin is now glowing and plumped, in a matter of weeks,’ another raved in reviews for the product, which claims to neutralise free radical damage.
CBD and skincare
CBD interacts with our endocannabinoid system when used topically in skincare.
Cannabinoid receptors are found throughout the body as part of the endocannabinoid system, which aids in the regulation of a variety of biological processes such as pain sensation, mood, memory, and hunger.
Our bodies naturally create endocannabinoids, which are similar to those found in cannabis plants – but sometimes we need a little help.
Studies have indicated that CBD can have anti-inflammatory effects when applied to the skin, which could help soothe sensitive conditions such as eczema, psoriasis and acne.
It’s even claimed that topical CBD application can alleviate muscle soreness, as well as relieve sunburn and bug bites.
CBD may also have the ability to reduce excess sebum (oil) production, which may aid in the reduction of spots, and it is known to have antioxidant capabilities, which may aid in the reduction of fine lines and ageing.
You may tailor the hydration levels to your skin and climate by combining it with the brand’s face and eye products. It seems like a one-stop shop…for your face.
When used combined, the products attempt to take advantage of CBD’s antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, while natural actives like chaga mushroom promise to enhance collagen and hyaluronic acid and squalane to moisturise and seal in moisture.
Because, let’s face it, with these freezing weather still hanging around and whatever heating we dare to turn on sapping whatever moisture we have left in our skin, we could use something to seal it in and give us the glow we deserve.
