Helps to Relax and Reduce Stress
Studies have shown that CBD promotes neural regeneration, specifically in the hippocampus part of the brain. And through its positive effects on the endocannabinoid system, CBD tries to balance the production of cortisol, a steroid hormone that produces stress. When cortisol production is modulated, it leads to improvement of a person’s behaviour, mood, and keeps stress at bay. Less stress keeps the wrinkles off your face, making your skin young-looking and more relaxed.
Hinders Acne Breakouts
One of the main causes of acne is our body’s overproduction of sebum, a natural body oil produced by the skin’s glands. While sebum keeps the body moisturized, it can also cause clogging in our skin pores, leading to acne breakouts. CBD’s ability to regulate the production of sebum of these oil glands helps in preventing acne.
Helps Improve Skin Elasticity
Skin elasticity is the ability of the skin to snap back to its original form after being stretched. If your skin is not elastic, it would look saggy, wrinkled, and leathery. The skin loses its ability to be elastic as we age. One factor that could cause this is exposure to the sun’s harmful rays. Over time, the skin loses its ability to return to its form over prolonged and repeated exposure eventually. Other factors including smoking, poor nutrition, and air pollution can also affect the elasticity of the skin. If you suddenly realized that your skin doesn’t look as supple and fresh as it were when you were younger, you may want to purchase a CBD product. Studies have shown that CBD has a positive effect on the skin’s elasticity.
