The CBDs of Skincare

People have been using the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory powers of CBDs for years for body aches and to reduce swelling, so it makes sense that the same properties can be used to reduce puffy eyes, fine lines and swelling and itching caused by psoriasis or eczema.

Hiscox says CBDs also have astringent and anti-viral components to fight and prevent infections such as acne.

For facial use, Hiscox recommends True Nature Creations’ Radiance Facial Serum, formulated for anti-aging. A few drops once a day is plenty as CBDs are known for being particularly good at crossing membranes, such as skin and cells, to absorb faster into the system than chemical-based skin care products.

“It has two functions: it’s designed to absorb into the skin and bring full-spectrum cannabinoids into the skin,” Hiscox said. “But the other function is to protect the skin from oxidation and sun damage; to protect the outer layer.”

As for how CBDs work, scientists aren’t really sure.

For someone like Hiscox, a researcher with a Ph.D. in chemistry who runs a university laboratory, this may seem like a leap of faith. But he’s a believer, and a user of his own products.

“We know that they (CBDs) interact with the nervous system, which projects into the dermal layers of the skin so there is some evidence that it can reduce pain and inflammation of the skin, promote healing and otherwise protect the skin from damage,” he said.

Hiscox’s customers are also apparently convinced. True Nature Creations doesn’t advertise and yet sales are steady and growing. He says a lot of that is due to repeat customers and word of mouth.

It probably helps that True Nature Creations also provides something you might not get through larger skincare companies; information. On the company website, Hiscox maintains a blog and posts about developments in the CBD and hemp industries as well as other news and reviews.

What True Nature Creations doesn’t have is tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in its serums and balms, the naturally-occurring chemical responsible for marijuana’s psychological effects.

“Not in our products. The products we’re interested in are full-spectrum hemp products.”

Industrial hemp has a maximum allowable THC level of 0.3 percent.

So even if you ate Radiance Facial Serum (which you probably could because of the natural ingredients) you would never get high.

For those with these concerns or questions about CBDs and hemp, Hiscox has some simple advice: Look for documentation.

“Be careful and choose wisely. Choose companies that provide Certificates of Analysis as to the quantity of all cannabinoids in a product.”
