Is buying your CBD getting a bit too pricey? No worries, we understand. CBD and other cannabis related products can charge a pretty penny, especially if you are relying on these substances to get through the day without chronic pain or anxiety. If you are unfamiliar with what CBD topicals are, let me go ahead and tell you about them. There are many health benefits associated with CBD topicals.
While some people use creams and salves to help with chronic pain management, others use CBD topicals to help with wound care or surgery recovery and healing. Either way, there is no doubt in my mind (nor in scientific studies and clinical trials) that CBD has great health benefits and is great for many individuals who rely on its healing properties. So what kind of stuff can you make at home? Honestly, it depends on what you’re in the mood for. You can make everything from lip balm, lotions, ointments, soaps, shampoos, to oils and lubricants.
The creativity is all up to you, my friend. Interestingly, some people even use CBD in the form of toothpaste or mouthwash. If you’re looking for different recipes for making your own CBD topicals, I unfortunately do not have any for you today.
However, I do know of several places where you can go to get them. Pinterest is a great place to start and has more recipes than you can count. I go there to find all sorts of recipes or instructions on how to make CBD topicals and other products. You can also add in other ingredients to your topicals to really make them special and unique to you, like green tea extract, matcha, charcoal, raw organic herbs and spices, and other types of concentrates.
In some states, medical marijuana patients are allowed to grow cannabis in their own home. If that’s the case for you, then you have a great opportunity to make your own CBD or hemp products at home. Natural plant extracts help with localized pain relief and can even enhance your mood and reduce stress. Some people like to use aromatherapy in this way. Honestly, the possibilities with cannabis are endless. So if you have some time at home because of the pandemic and want to try your hand at making CBD or THC topicals, what can you start making? Well, like I said, you can really try anything. It is worth noting that hemp is more affordable to buy than cannabis, and you can use the seeded flower to crush and make your own topicals at home.

One of the main types of CBD topicals involve skin care, which is a huge industry in the beauty world. There are numerous benefits to using CBD products for your skincare routine, and cannabidiols have powerful antioxidant properties that can help you combat dry skin, wrinkles, and other forms of aging or dying skin. There is even evidence of cannabidiol helping skin conditions like acne or hives, since it is a strong anti-inflammatory. CBD topicals can help reduce the redness, swelling, and itching associated with most skin conditions or problems. This makes skincare one of the most popular uses for CBD topicals.

Another very popular CBD product to make at home is soap. Whether you want to make bar soap, shampoo, conditioner, or bath bombs, CBD topicals have your back. These types of products soothe dry, cracked, and irritated skin in ways that other topicals simply cannot. I hope that this article was helpful for you and that you can try your hand at making CBD topicals for yourself at home this winter!
