As a result of the easing restrictions, there has been a boon in the use of cannabidiol, or CBD, a non-psychoactive form of cannabis, for its wellness and beauty benefits. The following are just a few examples of how CBD is taking over these industries.
1. Moisturizer
Much of the 2010s saw matte and highly glam beauty looks, but as we inched closer to the 2020s, there has been a shift toward more natural and dewy beauty looks, as well as a greater emphasis on skincare. Glow oils are having a big moment and top-pick Herbivore Botanicals’ EMERALD CBD + Adaptogens Deep Moisture Glow Oil is no exception. The product has been rated highly across online networks and featured in numerous publications. Its key ingredient is a premium, Colorado-grown CBD oil, which soothes troubled skin, and is said to tackle dryness, redness and irritation. Combined with other natural ingredients, the glow oil not only relieves skin, but additionally moisturizes it and prevents aging. As a bonus, the product is also vegan, cruelty-free and without synthetic ingredients. emerald.herbivorebotanicals.com

2. Supplements
Keeping it simple, supplements are one of the most convenient and straight-forward ways to consume CBD. Populum’s Full-Spectrum Hemp CBD Capsules contain cannabinoids, antioxidants and neuroprotectants that help protect and rebalance the body’s central nervous system. Incredibly, the company keeps its ingredients natural and simple, maximizing the potency of the CBD without using unnecessary compounds. To ensure full transparency of this benefit, they publish full lab reports from a third-party on its site and within its packaging. populum.com

3. Bath Bombs
Soaking in the tub has long been a form of relaxation and, in the last few years, the tradition has been enhanced with bath bombs, which are as aesthetically pleasing as they are useful. What sets the bath bombs in Life Flower’s “Most Wanted” apart are its natural ingredients and inclusion of pure hemp-derived CBD. Beautifully topped with fresh flowers and elements of the cannabis plant itself, this variety pack includes offerings with varying inspirations, like the “Summer of Love” or Stevie Nicks. Others in the set are geared toward aiding sleep or encouraging romance. An additional asset of these products is that they are handcrafted in small batches with all-natural, ethically sourced and eco-friendly ingredients. lifeflowercare.com

4. Coffee Beans
As a morning ritual around the world, coffee is a fan-favorite, but it can come with some adverse side effects, such as restlessness, or even anxiety and agitation. To counteract caffeine’s negative side effects, Willie’s Remedy sells hemp-infused coffees, meant to balance the alertness derived from caffeine with infused hemp oil, which calms the drinker. The brand was launched last year by American country musician Willie Nelson and his wife Annie. The line includes beverages and wellness products that are infused with certified organic, full-spectrum hemp oil, which is a pure extract of the hemp plant that contains CBD. The coffee can be purchased as whole beans or ground and is available in dark, medium and decaf blends, with the recommendation that they are brewed in a French press or using a metal mesh filter. For those who prefer tea over coffee, the company also sells a line of hemp-infused teas offering similar benefits. williesremedy.com
