From serums to makeup primers, you can spot cannabis-derived ingredients making a cameo in a wide range of beauty products. The question is not whether cannabis in skincare is having a moment (it surely is), but rather why?There are two common cannabis-derived ingredients found in beauty products: cannabis sativa seed oil (or hemp seed oil) and CBD. “Hemp seed oil provides the skin with similar benefits as other natural oils, such as olive oil,” says Dr. Joshua Zeichner, a NYC-based board-certified dermatologist. “It’s rich in antioxidants and fatty acids that form a protective seal over the surface of the skin to help hydrate dry skin.”According to Dr. Zeichner, CBD oil is essentially a molecule that binds to receptors on the surface of the skin, giving it a calming effect. It has also been shown to minimize sebum and be a source of antioxidants. “Neither of these ingredients contain THC, which is the chemical responsible for the psychoactive effects of marijuana,” he adds. Sold on giving cannabis skincare a try?
