What is CBD?

We know hemp thanks to its millennial use as a medicinal plant for thousands of years, but there is still some confusion around its components.

CBD or cannabidiol is one of the 100 natural chemical compounds present within Cannabis sativa, the hemp plant. What makes it different from the cannabinoid THC ( tetrahydrocannabinol ) is the fact that cannabidiol has no psychoactive power , which is why it is considered a legal substance * within the EU (* the THC content must still be less than 0.2 % ).

Usually CBD is obtained through a complex extraction process from commercial hemp varieties ( Cannabis sativa L. ), approved in the EU, which do not produce THC.

The properties of CBD

The skin is one of our largest organs and is very rich in endocannabinoid receptors ( CB1 and CB2 ), present in practically all its cells.

CBD boasts anti- inflammatory and antioxidant properties , while also helping to decrease toxins accumulating on the skin's surface, caused by external factors such as polluted air or UV rays.

Creams, masks, serum or lotions therefore help to modulate skin imbalances, inflammation or redness, especially in the case of acne or eczema. In combination with other natural ingredients, such as Aloe vera , grape extracts or calendula , its effect is enhanced.

CBD and Hemp oil: what do they do on the skin?

As already mentioned, the most common benefits for the skin are mainly due to their anti-aging and anti- inflammatory activities , as well as their very high antioxidant power .

Another note of merit must be given to the fact that hemp seed oil contains many unsaturated essential fatty acids, in particular omega 6 and 9 , capable of providing intense hydration and nourishment to the skin, protecting it from dehydration and premature aging.

By regenerating the natural barrier and stimulating the skin's immune system, they are then an excellent aid in the treatment of inflammatory and itchy conditions such as psoriasis and eczema .

Last, but not least, is the fact that CBD has proved to be a powerful antibacterial , antiviral and regulator of sebum secretion , therefore able to prevent and solve one of the most common annoyances: the formation of acne .
