What is CBD?

 CBD is the abbreviation for 'Cannabidiol'. It is one of the many compounds inside the Cannabis plant.  

Endocannabinoid System

CBD (Cannabidiol) interacts with the Endocannabinoid system that is found in every mammal.


 Our bodies actually produce cannabinoids and we have cannabinoid receptors in our brains, bones, skin, central nervous system, digestive system, and even our reproductive organs. 


When CBD is ingested or used topically the CBD binds and interacts with these receptors (CB1 and CB2) receptors.


CB1 receptors are in the nervous system, glands, organs and connective tissue. CB2 receptors have an effect on the immune system and your functioning health. The natural cannabinoids within your body work with these receptors to prevent your nervous system from misfiring or acting defectively. Natural cannabinoid deficiency will lead to negative effects on your body’s nervous system and body as a whole.  


 Your body needs cannabinoids when endocannabinoid deficient just like when you take vitamin D for bone strength. This is because our body needs the right balance of cannabinoids to keep your nervous system and body in good health. 


Endocannabinoid System, CB1 and CB2 receptors

How does CBD work?

CBD works by interacting with your Endocannabinoid system promoting balance or 'Homeostasis' 

How can CBD help me?

  Many describe CBD as being like THC, just without the high inducing effects.


CBD works as an Endocannabinoid modular. This means when a disease starts to take over your body it will create an imbalance within the body system. When taken, the CBD works to get those systems to balance back to where they should be; healthy, working condition.


Research shows that CBD binds enzymes to provide anti-seizure, anti-inflammatory and pain relief on other receptors like; vanilloid, adenosine and serotonin that target pain, inflammation, movement and cognition. 


CBD has also been proven to help with insomnia, pain relief, menstrual cramps, Inflammation and other skin related issues such as Eczema, Psoriasis and Acne.

CBD & Skincare

CBD is known to be highly effective in treating conditions such as Acne, Eczema and Psoriasis due to its soothing and anti-inflammatory properties.


CBD also works to rebalance your skin’s microbiome which long-term can have benefits such as reducing excess sebum production and breakouts as a result. 

Why should I add CBD to my skincare Rituals?

CBD exerts an anti-inflammatory effect. By keeping inflammation down, CBD can have a calming  and soothing effect on the skin for acne sufferers.


CBD performs a regulating role on the complex processes that trigger the sebaceous glands to produce excess sebum. This is also known as the sebostatic function. By doing so CBD can provide an active role in regulating sebum when used topically. When CBD is taken internally it can also address the root cause of acne not just treating the symptoms.


If you suffer from severe acne it is important to visit your dermatologist to assess the severity of your acne along with a treatment plan moving forward.


 Acne is not the only skin condition that can be addressed.


Due to the anti-inflammatory effects of CBD, research shows that like acne it has the ability to reduce symptoms of psoriasis, itchy rashes and eczema. 


As CBD is also known for its pain reducing properties, it has the ability to reduce discomfort in the skin providing relief and therefore serves as the perfect self care Ritual.
