Your skin is the largest organ in your body and what you put onto it is crucial. You wouldn’t just put anything on your face without knowing the benefits to your skin. You want something like a lotion packed with antioxidants and skin-smoothing ingredients.
CBD oil is becoming extremely popular in the beauty world, and knowing more about CBD skincare will help you decide whether it will be beneficial to your skin or not.
Understanding your skin and face needs and what ingredients are useful are the two critical pieces to your perfect skin puzzle.
Let’s Talk CBD
CBD or Cannabidiol is one of the two main ingredients in marijuana. However, CBD is not the part of the plant derivative that gives off the psychotropic effects. In short, CBD doesn’t give you the effects of being “high”.
As a stand-alone ingredient, CBD is safe and has many health benefits including beauty and skincare! As a leader in CBD skincare, Lea Black has been paving the way for CBD infused products.
We will be discussing her products along with the benefits of CBD in skincare. Even though CBD has many different uses, we will be discussing 4 ways CBD oil can help your skin when used in skincare.
Inflammatory Benefits
As more and more research is being done on CBD, the most popular is its effect on inflammatory issues. Scientists and dermatologists alike have been testing CBD’s effectiveness in soaps, lotions, and other topical ointments to help treat skin issues such as:
- Dry-skin
- Flaky, itchy skin
- Psoriasis
- Eczema
- Swollen, puffy under eyes
- Dandruff
If you are like many of us who suffer from those puffy eyes in the morning, CBD can help reduce the inflammation and give your skin a boost of hydration.
A great product to try is the Premium Hemp Eye Cream. The product description reads: The Premium Hemp CBD Soothing Eye Cream moisturizes the sensitive area around the eye while reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and diminishes dark circles and puffiness.
Acne Cleanse
Paired with the inflammatory benefits, CBD is linked to acne care. With CBD helping with the swelling related to acne, it has also been researched to help with redness and skin cell regrowth. CBD is also known to have anti-bacterial effects, so it helps to fight the start breakouts before they even begin. Another potential benefit is that it works in conjunction with the skin’s oil making glands to stop oil over-production.
Healthy, Glowing Skin
Packed with antioxidants, CBD is proving that it can get in the ring with the rest of the healthy skincare additives. Dr. Alster, a Professor of Dermatology, says this about CBD for the skin, “CBD-containing products are rich in omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids which improve overall skin appearance and provide a more youthful glow.”
Fountain of Youth
If those three benefits weren’t enough, CBD has even been found to have anti-aging properties as well! Fighting wrinkles and other signs of aging helps put CBD oil on the map with the best of skincare ingredients. Combining the 4 previous benefits linked to CBD, you will have found the fountain of youth in one simple component!
CBD paired with other anti-aging ingredients can help you achieve younger, more radiant skin than you ever imagined. A couple of products to try for anti-aging skincare are Lea Black’s Anti Aging Serum and Sudden Youth Cannabis Oil.

All-in-One Ingredient
CBD has many other potential benefits, but when used in conjunction with skincare products, CBD is an all-in-one ingredient. Using CBD on the skin in a topical treatment has little to no adverse effect.
It is an extremely safe ingredient to use in skincare and works with all types of skin! If you have oily or dry skin or a combination of both, CBD can be beneficial to getting your skin looking it’s best!
