So you’ve decided to jump on the bandwagon and try out some CBD topicals. Before you start clicking “buy now” on any CBD cosmetics, it’s a good idea to learn some basics about what you are buying and where it’s coming from.

What To Look For & Avoid When Shopping for Topicals

There are different types of CBD products found in topicals and even shifty companies that mislabel their products. Even though CBD was only legalized federally a couple of years ago, tons of companies are cashing in on the new market and you’ll need to learn how to find the best quality products.

CBD Oil vs. Hemp Seed Oil

CBD oil is an extract that is derived from the leaves and flowers of the hemp plant, whereas hemp seed oil is extracted from the hemp plant seeds. CBD oil is lighter and tends to be less greasy. A non-greasy product is definitely something people look for when purchasing a cosmetic product for their facial and body skincare.

CBD Oil in Makeup

Cosmetic and beauty product companies are coming up with truly unique ways to utilize the benefits of CBD oil. Many of the makeup products available today do not contain THC, but they often take advantage of the moisturizing effects and consistency of CBD oil.

Some companies have even come out with CBD oil-based mascaras that plump and nourish eyelashes with vegan recipes. They claim the CBD oil lets the mascara smoothly glide on and won’t flake off. Other CBD and hemp seed oil products that companies like this offer include foundation, concealer, glow oil, bronzer, and skin tint with SPF 30. These products won’t relieve your stress, but they can promote the health of your skin and facial features.

CBD Lip Balms

CBD oil lip balms are a popular product that can help bring back cracked, dry, chapped lips to a healthier appearance. Your lips can even become swollen and painful from being badly chapped, and this is where the anti-inflammatory and moisturizing properties of CBD oil come in very handy. CBD is also known to possess antibacterial and antioxidant properties which may help your chapped lips heal even faster than regular lip balms.

Tons of companies offer their own versions in a wide variety of flavors, from expensive to affordable price tags. These products also contain no THC, but the CBD oil is packed with vitamins A, C, and E that add to the health of your skin. Quality CBD oil lip balms will make your lips shiny and moisturized without a greasy feel.

CBD Topical Uses

CBD is a versatile product that has many medical benefits. When used topically, it’s strong anti-inflammatory properties can be helpful to relieve joint pain, sore muscles, and body aches. Some studies have also shown that it reduces the amount of sebum production in the skin. That combined with reducing inflammation may be effective at relieving acne.

CBD beauty products also contain a range of vitamins and fatty acids that help to nourish and moisturize the skin, which can diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Research has also shown promising results for the use of CBD when treating conditions of the skin, like eczema and psoriasis.

Unique Body Chemistry

Everybody has unique body chemistry or makeup that will react differently to the main three types of CBD products and concentrations of CBD. If CBD isolate isn’t working for your wellness goals, you may want to try looking for a product with a higher concentration of CBD isolate, or switching to a full or broad-spectrum CBD product. When skin reactions occur, it is often due to the extra ingredients in a product, so switching to a purer CBD isolate with fewer ingredients may be helpful. 

Quality Control – Is it Tested in a Third-Party Lab?

FDA regulations on CBD products are somewhat loose, especially for products that are manufactured outside of the USA. Companies have even been found to mislabel their products. The best source for CBD topicals are through companies that make their products within the USA and test them for quality control in a third-party lab. They should list a link to the updated product results that can easily be verified by consumers before any purchase is made.

Happy International Women's Day to all the women c Happy International Women's Day to all the women crushing it despite getting less pay, less startup funding, less everything when it comes to business. Let's do more than recognize women.
In 2023, it's time to:
*Buy from women-owned businesses
*Give women a seat at the table, preferably the board
*End all male speaking panels
*Invest in women startups, including those focused on serving women
*Include more women in clinical trials
*End toxic work cultures
*Support paid maternity leave policies
*Fill the wage gap between men and women
*Donate to nonprofits serving women
*Let women take time off of work for painful periods without stigma or penalty
*Work harder to specifically include and apply all of these principles to women from marginalized groups such as black women, disabled women, LGBTQ women, and females identifying as nonbinary, genderfluid, or genderqueer.
And so. much. more.

No one is giving $2 w🌱🌱d gummies to children No one is giving $2 w🌱🌱d gummies to children trick or treating on Halloween. Those reports you hear on the news simply aren’t true! ⁣
⁣
However, if you are attending a Halloween party for adults, ask if the candies, goodies, or drinks are special or infused! Edibles are more common at parties as an alternative to alcohol, especially in states where the plant has been legalized for both recreational & medical use.⁣
⁣
If you’re not used to consuming, try a small piece or half a piece, drink plenty of water, and make sure you have a safe place to sit if needed. And always call a rideshare aka Uber or Lyft home!⁣
⁣
Happy Halloween! 🎃💀👻⁣

⁣
Which is your favorite Medicinal Mushr00m?⁣⁣
⁣⁣
It's more important than ever to take mushr00m supplements. Here's a little about how my favorite four mushr00ms work:⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Lion’s Mane Mushr00ms: great for improving focus and memory. Lion's mane promotes neurogenesis, or birth of new brain cells.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Cordyceps Mushr00ms: great for fighting fatigue and increasing length of your workouts. It's especially helpful for fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue patients.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Turkey Tail Mushr00ms: great for supporting your immune system. Clinical trials have looked at its role in fighting cancer.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Reishi Mushr00ms: what can't the queen of mushr00ms do? It fights cancer, boosts the immune system, improves mood, levels blood sugar, and promotes heart health.⁣⁣

9/20 is National Magic Mushr00m Day. Why have a da 9/20 is National Magic Mushr00m Day. Why have a day to celebrate them?
Well in the United States & many parts of the world, they are still illegal, similar to another misunderstood therapeutic green plant we celebrate on 4/20. 
I've worked hard over the years in Denver & many other states to help decriminalize shr00ms and help people access information on how to use them for medical, spiritual, and stress relief purposes. I suggest following @decriminalizenature & @doubleblindmag for deeper info.
How are you celebrating today? ❤️ 🍄 ❤️

I’m not the only one, right? 😜 👩🏻‍🔬 💚
As a neuroscientist, I put out the first book on the potential causes of endocannabinoid deficiency and how to balance your ECS with or without plant medicine. 
From stress to medications to diet to your genes, there are so many ways your ECS go go haywire. The fact that so many people respond to plant medicine is likely because so many of us have severe imbalances.
