Many people understand the basics of lotions and creams and how they moisturize and nourish the skin. But what about CBD mixed with creams and balms? How do CBD topicals (ie: a CBD ointment) work? What will a CBD topical do for you?
By now, you’ve probably seen CBD products in the form of oils and tinctures. True enough, most CBD products are sold as edibles to be orally ingested. However, that’s just one way of using CBD.
At New Phase Blends, we also have CBD balms and creams — or what the industry refers to as CBD topicals.
So, how do CBD topicals work?
TL;DR – The term ‘CBD topical’ is a classification of CBD products made for the skin. The skin is able to absorb the nutrients from the topical cream and deliver them into the blood stream and surrounding areas. Then, the endocannabinoid system can respond to CBD use by offering effects like pain relief or inflammatory responses.
