Cannabis has been considered an ancient form of medicine in indigenous cultures for centuries. It was considered a sacred herb like sage, calendula, and mugwort which all help relieve muscle pain and relax the body. Nowadays, Western society is embracing the use of cannabis, once an illegal drug it, CBD-infused beauty ingredients are the hottest products on the market. We’re not only seeing the changes in social and political circles, but this controversial plant’s key ingredient (CBD) is also crossing over from smaller indie beauty brands to mega cosmetic giants. 

But first, we all know your wondering. Will these beauty products get you high? The answer is absolutely not. CBD is derived from hemp oil, which comes from the cannabis plant. It is non-psychoactive and non-intoxicating while retaining therapeutic properties that relieve stress, anxiety, and inflammation. Though it still has healing properties, there is no way of getting high so dile a mamá que no se preocupe!

The Cannabis industry is rapidly changing and according to some beauty insiders, this 420 is going to be its biggest year yet. Because, of course, this year is April 20, 2020 (4/20/20). 420 is a celebration of the Cannabis plant and community. With big brands listening to what consumers are asking for, we did a round-up of our twelve favorite CBD-infused beauty brands to get you ahead of the buzz. wp_*posts

Get the most out of CBD with Emerald’s premium organic, Colorado-grown full-spectrum CBD.

The presence of THC in small amounts strengthens the “entourage effect” where cannabinoids work together to make full-spectrum CBD more effective than processed, isolated forms of CBD.
