‘Topical’ can refer to any cream, balm, lotion or transdermal patch that is applied directly to a specific area of skin. Research has shown that CBD contains anti-inflammatory properties which makes CBD topicals an excellent option for targeting individual areas on the body, whilst benefiting the skins health and appearance.

A CBD topical interacts with the body’s own endocannabinoid receptors which are present under the skin.

These many receptors work to calm inflammation in the skin, or joints and muscles in surrounding areas. Rather than ingesting CBD orally which will enter the bloodstream, a topical application allows CBD to be absorbed directly into the area it is applied on for a more enhanced and concentrated relief.
