CBD COSMETICS

A CBD cosmetic is, by definition, a product containing cannabidiol dedicated to soins du corps, toilette or beauty which is not a medicinal preparation. CBD cosmetics are therefore not medical treatments, but wellness products. Often, they are intended for the skin or the hair, and therefore reserved for a external use.

The role of cosmetics, with or without CBD, is generally to cleanse, perfume or protect skin and/or hair. By making cannabidiol one of their flagship ingredients, they allow you to take advantage of its soothing effects, in particular by moisturizing the skin in depth, reducing muscle tension or nourishing the hair.

The specificity of a CBD cosmetic is often to combine the properties of cannabidiol with those of other natural wellness ingredients.

In all cases, Weedy.fr makes it a point of honor to choose CBD cosmetics using a maximum ofingredients from organic farming, GMO free et without ingredients or substances of animal origin.

CBD cosmetic products are numerous and can have different uses. The CBD skin creams, balms and oils are thus considered as cosmetics (face serum, day or night moisturizer for example), but they are far from being the only ones. A massage oil, muscle relaxant gel or an CBD lip balm also fall into this category. Finally, we can include the CBD patches, hygiene products of all kinds, sunscreen products, for shaving and even dental care.

Take the example of facial serums for CBD. We offer a complete range, available in three flagship products: one for combination and mature skin (moisturizing and antioxidant), one for oily skin (which regulates sebum production) and one for dry skins which hydrates and nourishes the face and neck in depth.

The range of CBD cosmetics from Weedy.fr evolves over time. The constant? Our teams choose quality products, sorted according to strict criteria and always giving priority to ingredients of natural origin ! Trust our CBD experts to contribute to your well-being!

It all started, as often, in North America. There the cannabis market is flourishing and CBD is already the star of many derivative products.

Cosmetics are of course part of it, but that's not all. Several studies have thus emerged in turn, in particular a study from April 2016 devoted to dermatological effects of cannabidiol. More trivially, in April 2019, Kim Kardashian even made CBD the theme of her baby shower, with a CBD cosmetics creation workshop on the program.

In French-speaking Europe, the trend took a little longer to take hold. However, the wave ended up breaking over France, Belgium and Luxembourg at the end of 2017, in particular thanks to the audacity of certain small businesses who have dared to sell cannabis-derived products.

Despite a unclear legal framework Regularly earning them some legal problems, the machine is launched. CBD cosmetics are therefore flourishing.

Popularized by the slow demonabolization of cannabis thanks to CBD benefits and the influence of certain stars, CBD beauty products are therefore now in fashion.

Whatever we sometimes hear from its detractors, European law authorizes them as long as their THC levels are under control.

Thus, and provided that the variety of cannabis used is authorized, any hemp plant containing less than 0,3% THC can be used to create and market CBD products. This is true in France as in all other EU countries.

However, no therapeutic effect is to date officially recognized.

THEuse of hemp by the cosmetic industry is nothing new. It has in fact been touting the virtues of the plant since at least the early 1990s, for which it mainly uses seeds and oil. What changes the game today is the popularization of CBD, or cannabidiol, an active molecule whose effects on the human body seem to be numerous.

The advantage of its entry into the composition of cosmetic products is that it allows a action with local effect. Most other forms of CBD products (pollen, oils, e-liquids,) indeed impose a global action, including on non-concerned parts of the body. We are interested in CBD cosmetics such as:

• moisturizing,
• antioxidant,
• traitement against acne,
• anti-aging (cannabidiol would help in particular to neutralize the effects of UV rays, harmful to the skin).
• anti-inflammatory
• fortifier for beard and hair
• regulator of sebum production (fewer pimples, skin that does not pull and grease less quickly)
• antibacterial

Many CBD cosmetic products therefore continue to appear on the market, in all kinds of forms:

• Makeup: mascara, lip balms, makeup remover.
• Cleaning or descaling products: soaps, lotions and even toothpaste.
• Body care: moisturizing, exfoliating, cleansing creams, but also balms, serums et massage oils.
• Beard & Hair Products: shampoos and conditioners, beard oils, anti-dandruff products.
• Muscle relaxants, especially in the context of sports.

Our  DIY and zero waste trends also lead to the popularization of the creation of its own beauty products with CBD hemp, in particular thanks to the addition ofCBD oil to existing bases. Alone at home or following workshops, many people today opt for more natural and eco-friendly care.

Each CBD cosmetic has its specificities. Please refer to the package insert. In general, the table below gives you a good overview of the uses and effects of the different products.

The first thing to do to choose your CBD cosmetic or wellness product is toanalyze their needs. We are all different and all react slightly differently to cannabidiol. The recommendations of our relatives are therefore always good to take, but we should never hesitate to listen to each other and change products if necessary.

Once you have determined your need, it's time to find the right product. It is a clever balance of quality (no GMOs or pesticides, for example), price (adapted to your budget) and practicality (delivered to your home in the next few days, for example).

It is also important to pay attention other ingredients than CBD : there are always some, but no need to have a dosage of incredible length.

Here as elsewhere, quality takes precedence over quantity. Avoid preservatives and any unnatural ingredients. This is all the more true since, if CBD only causes very low risk of adverse effects and is well tolerated by sensitive skin, this is not true for all components of cosmetics.

In case of itching or irritation, CBD is not probably not responsible. Certain vegetable oils and essential oils can nevertheless be. A simple and effective derivative and therefore very often your best ally!
