Why CBD?
Known for its ability to reduce inflammation (the root cause of all skin havoc) and neutralize free radical damage, CBD skincare has numerous studies pointing to its health, wellness and skin benefits.
CBD is a naturally-occurring chemical compound found in cannabis plants and is a potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. It has been shown in multiple studies to reduce overproduction of sebum. One study even found that CBD could prevent acne in multiple ways.
Benefits of CBD for Skin
- Treat Inflammatory Acne: can help reduce redness, pain, and swelling associated with inflammatory acne.
- Regulate Oil Production: helps regulate hormones involved in oil production, reducing excess sebum.
- Reduce Breakouts
- Calm Rosacea
- Neutralize Free Radical Damage
- Soothe Eczema: fights irritation and inflammation caused by eczema + chronic skin conditions such as psoriasis and dermatitis
- Decrease Hormonal Conditions: CBD is considered an adaptogen and can decrease the effects of hormones from stress
- Hydration: has moisturizing properties to fight dryness
Prima Chill Out Vegan Hemp Chews
The Prima Chill Out Hemp Chews contain:
- Bio-available Magnesium
- 20 mg of CBD
- 10 vitamins and minerals
- Patent-Pending Delivery System and Formula Composition
I find the Prima hemp chews to actually ease tension and promote relaxation very quickly. BUT, they have a strong bitter taste that I can imagine is off-putting for some. Despite that, I’m very happy with my purchase of these. I was having a tension headache and a not-so-great day in general, and when I took three of the Prima Hemp Chews I felt the headache begin to melt away within an hour. It wasn’t completely gone but I felt noticeably better and relaxed.
