The Truth About Cannabis and Your Skin

Cannabis is often used as a skin care product. But is it really good for your skin? Cannabis has been shown to be effective in treating various skin conditions. But the truth is, there are many factors to consider before using cannabis to treat your skin.

What are the benefits of cannabis skin care products?

Cannabis can be used to treat a variety of skin conditions, including: 

  • Eczema
  • Psoriasis
  • Rosacea
  • Atopic dermatitis
  • Dermatitis herpetiformis (a form of eczema)

What is the difference between cannabis and other skin care products?

Cannabis is a plant that grows naturally in the world. It gets its name from the fact that it has both psychoactive and medicinal qualities. Cannabis can be smoked, eaten, or applied topically to the skin. In some forms, cannabis can make you feel relaxed, calm and sleepy. You might even call it a “holiday drug.”

When used topically, cannabis is safe for use by most people of all ages. However, because of its psychoactive properties, cannabis poses a risk to those with medical conditions like Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).

For this reason, it’s important to understand exactly how cannabis affects your body when used topically.

The majority of cannabinoids found in cannabis are not psychoactive: they don’t make you feel high or get you stoned. But there are two types of cannabinoids: delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD). THC alone doesn’t have many therapeutic benefits; CBD on its own is an effective treatment for anxiety and inflammation disorders like Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis (colitis).

Topical treatment

Cannabis topicals can be used to treat a range of skin conditions such as psoriasis, eczema, and psoriatic arthritis. Cannabis has anti-inflammatory properties that reduce pain and swelling, which can help with the discomfort associated with these conditions.

Topicals can be applied directly to a troublesome area or used as an everyday moisturizer. So if you have dry patches or acne-prone areas, try using a cannabis balm or liniment topically. Another great topical use is to apply cannabis topicals that contain THC directly to your feet and massage it into your feet before going to bed. This will ease any tiredness you might feel from having worked all day on your feet.

Cannabis for acne

Cannabis is an effective natural remedy for acne. It can help you clear up your skin by reducing inflammation and killing bacteria. Cannabis also contains antioxidants that fight free radicals in the body, which can cause breakouts. The cannabinoids and terpenes in cannabis are anti-inflammatory, so they’re a great option for acne sufferers who need to reduce their inflammatory symptoms.

If you want to use cannabis for acne, it’s best to start with a topical application. You could dab on some cannabis oil or take a few drops of cannabis tincture under the tongue. If you want to make your own topical application, you can use coconut oil or almond oil as a base and add one part olive oil and one part cannabis tincture to create a salve.

How do you store and use cannabis skin care products?

A cannabis skin care product is a broad group of products such as lotions, oils, and creams that are used to treat various skin conditions.  Cannabis can be used in a variety of ways—for example, it can be applied topically or ingested as a topical oil. You can drink cannabis oil or apply the hashish to your skin (smokeless).

All cannabis skin care products should be stored in an airtight container. Plastic containers are not recommended because they allow moisture to penetrate the product. Most commercial cannabis consumers prefer glass jars for their products because they won’t allow moisture to penetrate the product.

Conclusion

Cannabis is a natural and organic compound derived from the hemp plant. It is a safe and non-toxic substance that has been traditionally used to treat a number of skin problems, including acne, eczema, psoriasis and even cancer.  Visit BCMedichronic.org online dispensary for all your cannabis needs.
