Why CBD and Hemp skincare are the next big beauty trends for 2019
If, like us, you are obsessed with beauty trends and finding the next 'must-have' ingredient to add to your routine, you will probably know that Cannabis is set to be the next big thing in beauty.
Known to heal irritation, soothe the skin and balance oils, cannabinoids work instantly as our bodies have native receptors to them meaning the wonderful results from skincare enriched with Cannabis extracts can be noticed straightaway.
One important distinction to make before you venture into the world of CBD and Hemp skincare is that skincare products sold in the UK contain very little to no THC - the psychoactive and illegal compound of Cannabis.
All products contain CBD, known as cannabidiol, or Hemp, which are extracted from the flowers and buds on the Cannabis plant but have no psychoactive effects. They simply work to improve the appearance and texture of your skin.

With more and more research going into the skin-perfecting effects of CBD and Hemp, you can expect so many more Cannabis-infused beauty products to be developed and released over the next few years.
To help you stay ahead of the trend, we have gathered together a few of our favourite products enriched with CBD and Hemp which promise to heal, care for and improve the appearance of your skin.
