Three Reasons Why You Should Formulate With CBD
There are many reasons to consider using CBD in your skincare brand. CBD is an incredibly fascinating ingredient and provides promising skin benefits. "Although it might seem like a trend, I think we will only see more and more use of these types of phytocannabinoids in skincare and wellness formulations in the years to come," says our resident esthetician. Here are our top reasons to formulate with CBD in your skincare business:
It has a soothing effect on the skin.
It plumps and softens the appearance of the skin.
It encourages a firm and youthful looking complexion.
Something to consider when formulating with CBD is to ask yourself why you are choosing to work with CBD and will it make sense in your product and brand? Are you adding a CBD product to your line just because it's a trend or because you know it's a powerful ingredient that will add value to your product line. Many people are still uneducated about CBD and cannabinoids in general, so educating your customers about the skin benefits of CBD should be a priority when launching a product. "In the future, I think we will see more CBD in haircare, skincare, and makeup," says our resident esthetician. As a skincare business owner, you have to ask yourself if CBD makes sense in the product you want to create. We recommend doing your research before launching your CBD skincare product, research where the CBD is sourced from, and educate your customers on the benefits.
