Importance of Healthy Skin
Our skin is our best friend. It’s the largest organ in the body and is the first line of defence against bugs and bacteria which attack us daily. That’s why our Love CBD Balm can be a very useful aid when dealing with skin problems, as part of a daily skincare regime and protecting your skin from the elements.
Sebum is produced by glands attached to hair follicles and lubricates the hair and skin to stop it drying out. However, as we hit puberty (we all know what that’s like!) the hormones racing around our bodies can make us produce excess sebum which blocks our hair follicles and can cause skin problems like black heads and spots.
What makes our Love CBD Balm so special?
So, let’s look at the ingredients in our Love CBD Balm and explain how they can help your skin look healthier and happier and help you avoid skin problems. By far the most significant ingredient is cannabidiol (CBD). Unlike the majority of CBD-based cosmetic products that use CBD isolate, our Love CBD Balm uses a broad-spectrum extract that contains a range of other beneficial cannabis compounds like terpenes, flavonoids, and other minor cannabinoids.
Cannabidiol has been shown to have anti-sebum and anti-microbial properties. The anti-sebum property is important because it’s the overproduction of sebum that can cause problems for the skin. The cannabidiol in our Love CBD Balm can help control the production of sebum, which helps keep our pores clear and reduces the chances of having ‘problem’ skin and outbreaks.
Cannabidiol also has anti-oxidant and conditioning properties. Anti-oxidants are important because they can slow cell damage caused by the waste products our cells produce. If we didn’t get rid of the waste, it can lead to a variety of issues, including as shown earlier, blocked pores. Cannabidiol is also good for conditioning the skin, which is very important because the skin is our first line of defence against damage from the sun and from bacteria which may try to get into our bodies.
As anyone with skin problems will know, it is important that all the ingredients within a cosmetic product is gentle, as harsh ingredients can cause certain skin types to react adversely. Therefore, the Love CBD balm has been developed with this in mind, and the only ingredients that are included within the balm are natural and gentle. Love CBD products contain organic ingredients where possible, as we do not want to have any traces of chemicals from the farming process left within our CBD products.
When purchasing a CBD cosmetic product, it is a good idea to check with the manufacturer that the product has been registered with the UK authorities, and that it has a product information file (PIF) which includes a full safety report for that product. This will ensure that the products meets UK requirements, as the appointed individual responsible for testing and registering the CBD topical product will be guaranteeing that the product has been made in accordance with UK cosmetic regulations.
The Love CBD balm has all the necessary documentation and we have undertaken all of the required testing to ensure that the product is safe, that the levels of cannabinoids over time remain within specification and that we have the shelf life data to provide the send user with the accurate information when making a purchase. The Love CBD balm has been proven to have a best before date of 32 months from manufacturing and 12 months from the date which the product is first opened.
