First, let's tackle the top questions about CBD when it comes to beauty: What is CBD, and will it get me high if I use CBD beauty products?

CBD is a natural compound derived from the cannabis plant. Heralded for its restorative power for all skin types, including acne-prone and sensitive skin, CBD is proven to help reduce inflammation and support the skin’s natural healing process. That's why we've added award-winning CBD-infused skincare and hair care brands to our Camera Ready family!

Now, as far as if CBD Beauty products will get you high. The answer is no. CBD is one of 100+ cannabinoids (chemical compound found in hemp plants) that stabilizes the body and helps maintain health. You’ll find traces of CBD in marijuana, but CBD alone is non-psychoactive and legal to purchase in an isolated form.

The cannabinoid compound infamously known to get you high is called THC. This particular plant derivative is responsible for the psychoactive effects of marijuana.

*Disclaimer - As with any big change in your skincare or hair care regimen that focuses on ingredients, if you are pregnant or nursing, or if you're reading this article to decide if you'd like to use this product on a child, we highly recommend checking with your doctor first.

Benefit #1 of CBD in skincare and hair care: CBD can alleviate acne, redness, and inflammation

CBD oil is an effective and natural anti-inflammatory. Those who suffer from inflammatory skin conditions, like rosacea, benefit from the soothing properties found inside CBD. This miracle ingredient also reduces breakouts and calms redness by decreasing excessive levels of oil produced by the skin – a major trigger for acne-prone skin.

Our Top Picks:

For those suffering from stress-related hair loss, hair care products infused with CBD like FITISH Plumping Hair Serum can help reduce inflammation of the scalp - one of the biggest contributing factors to non-hereditary hair loss!  

For those wanting to tone down the redness on their face, FITISH Tone Down Spray has become pro favorites thanks to the cooling effect and instant relief. For those with oily skin, we love FITISH Don't Sweat It. For added hydration, seal in moisture with the nourishing CBD-infused Saint Jane Luxury Beauty Serum.

Benefit #2 of CBD in skincare and hair care: It provides nourishment to sensitive skin and can alleviate some skin conditions

CBD oil inhibits flare-ups in some skin conditions, like psoriasis and eczema, and helps soothe sensitive, easily-irritated skin. Incorporate a CBD-infused beauty product into your daily routine to nourish skin and lock in moisture for healthy, glowing skin.

Our Picks: 

For a lotion that's great to use all over the body, try Saint Jane Hydrabloom Body Silk. Powerful ingredients like their Sea Flower Complex firm and tone while wild chamomile, hyaluronic acid, and jasmine provide deep hydration, soothing moisture, and soften the skin.

Benefit #3 of CBD in skincare and hair care: CBD can slow down some of the effects of aging

CBD in skincare combats the visible signs of aging with powerful antioxidant properties. Along with reducing inflammation, it can rejuvenate a dull complexion, even skin tone, and help smooth fine lines and wrinkles. That’s the power of CBD.

The CBD-focused brands we offer including KOVO, FITISH, and Saint Jane, have also upped the anti-aging benefits with peptides, other calming botanicals like chamomile, and antioxidants like green tea.

Our Top Picks: 

FITISH Beauty’s Dewing It CBD Moisturizer soothes irritation, calms redness, and gently nourishes with anti-aging ingredients for all skin types. If you're looking for an oil-based serum, we recommend KOVO Bakuchiol Serum11 Alternative Retinol.
