CBD and cannabinoids: key ingredients in the cosmetics industry!

A natural extract from the hemp plant, cannabidiol, or CBD, tops the list of key ingredients in the cosmetics industry! It must be said that its analgesic, anti-inflammatory and soothing properties are a blessing for the skin of the face and body. By interacting with receptors in the endocannabinoid system, cannabidiol (CBD) induces a cascade of natural benefits for body and mind.

Used orally, sublingually or inhaled, cannabidiol (CBD) produces a relaxing effect and relieves pain. According to the Hemp Trades Interprofession, France has nearly 7 million consumers of CBD products, mainly for oral, sublingual or inhalation use: cannabidiol oils, CBD flowers and leaves, resin, wax, etc.

As science has highlighted the moisturizing power and anti-inflammatory properties of cannabidiol in topical use, the major cosmetics players have quickly incorporated CBD into the ingredients of their skincare products. Unlike oral use, the topical application of CBD (oil, cream, balm, stick, gel, etc.) makes it possible to target certain areas of the skin to concentrate all the properties of natural cannabidiol and fight against dry skin, pain. muscles, sore skin, dry or chapped lips, etc. In France, natural CBD cosmetics are being emulated!

Dry lips: an overview of the causes

Cold and dry weather, repeated exposure to the sun and the bad habit of moistening your lips with your tongue. These are the three main reasons why your lips are regularly dry and/or chapped.

The skin of the lips is thinner and more sensitive. The absence of sebaceous glands is not to fix things, exploding the lips at the risk of dehydration. Also, for obvious reasons, the corners of the lips are strained all day, every time you open your mouth. Also, chapping, or "cheilitis" in scientific terms, can be made worse by contact with an allergen or underlying health condition (thyroid disorder, certain autoimmune diseases, iron and/or vitamin deficiency). E, etc).

For all these reasons, people who live in regions with cold and dry climates are most at risk for dry and chapped lips. Children and adolescents who develop a lip-licking tic are also affected. In addition to dryness in the lips, they may also develop a rash around the mouth. People with dry skin, especially in the "T" zone of the face, often experience seasonal chapping, especially in mid-winter.

Generally, dry, chapped lips are more uncomfortable than painful. On the other hand, severely chapped lips can cause pain on contact with certain foods, including citrus fruits and spicy and/or salty foods. When the dryness reaches the corners of the lips, pain may be felt when opening the mouth.

CBD lip balm: rigorously selected ingredients

Cannabidiol, or CBD, is a non-psychotropic and non-addictive molecule extracted from the natural hemp plant. With its analgesic, anti-inflammatory and soothing properties, CBD has made a remarkable incursion into the cosmetics industry, particularly in face and body skin care.
