Simple, Plant-Based Skincare: Our CBD Moisturizing Skin Cream*

In the world of modern wellness, transparency and simplicity have become key. Many of us are consciously moving away from complex formulas with harsh synthetic ingredients, seeking instead clean, plant-based solutions. This is especially true in skincare, where our daily routine can help keep skin feeling its best. That’s why we’re here to explore CBD moisturizing skin cream, a popular choice in this space.

Navigating the world of cannabinoids can feel overwhelming, but we’re here to make it simple. At NuLeaf Naturals, we believe in empowering you with clear, trustworthy information so you can make confident decisions about your product choices.

In this comprehensive guide, we’ll explore everything you need to know about CBD skin cream—from the science behind how it works with your skin to the clean ingredients that make it an excellent choice for daily hydration and support.*

What Is CBD Skin Cream?

A CBD skin cream is a topical moisturizer infused with cannabidiol (CBD) derived from the hemp plant. Unlike CBD oil, which is taken orally, a CBD cream is applied directly to the body’s surface. This allows the cannabinoids to be absorbed into the skin. At NuLeaf Naturals, our cream combines 1000mg of premium full-spectrum CBD with a curated blend of clean, plant-based ingredients, creating a lightweight, non-greasy formula suitable for all skin types.*

The beauty of a topical CBD product lies in its localized application. When you apply a cream to your skin, the CBD and other cannabinoids primarily interact with the skin layers and surrounding tissues.

This makes it an excellent choice for those looking to incorporate hemp into their daily skincare or post-exercise recovery routines.* We’ve designed our CBD Moisturizing Skin Cream to absorb quickly, leaving your skin feeling soft, silky, and deeply hydrated without any sticky residue.

How Topical CBD Works with Your Skin

To understand how CBD works topically, we first need to explore the endocannabinoid system (ECS). This system is found in the skin and plays a role in its natural processes.

Your skin has its own fully functional endocannabinoid system, equipped with cannabinoid receptors (CB1 and CB2) that act like docking stations for cannabinoids. The body naturally produces its own cannabinoids, called endocannabinoids, to interact with these receptors. However, the ECS can also be influenced by phytocannabinoids—the cannabinoids found in plants like hemp, with CBD being the most well-known.

When you apply a CBD cream, the CBD is absorbed through the pores and interacts with the cannabinoid receptors located in the skin’s epidermal and dermal layers. This interaction is part of the skin’s natural process. The skin has its own endocannabinoid system, which is understood to play a part in many of its natural functions, such as oil production and moisture retention.

By working with the skin’s natural system, topical CBD helps support healthy skin and hydration.* It can be a gentle yet effective addition to any skincare regimen.

Why Full-Spectrum Matters for Topical Use

 When you see the term “full-spectrum” on a CBD product, it means the extract contains all the beneficial compounds naturally found in the hemp plant—not just CBD. This includes a complete range of cannabinoids, terpenes, and other phytonutrients that work together.

This synergistic cooperation is known as the entourage effect. In a full-spectrum extract, each compound works together to support the product’s function.*

The Key Components of Full-Spectrum Hemp Extract

• Cannabinoids: Beyond CBD, our extract includes minor cannabinoids like CBG, CBC, and CBN. It also contains a trace amount of THC (less than the federally legal limit of 0.3%), which is non-intoxicating but plays a important role in achieving the entourage effect.
• Terpenes: These are the aromatic compounds that give plants like hemp their distinct scents. Terpenes do more than just provide aroma; they also have their own beneficial properties and work synergistically with cannabinoids to improve their effects.
• Essential Oils and Phytonutrients: Our gentle extraction process also preserves other beneficial plant materials, including essential fatty acids and vitamins that further nourish the skin.

By choosing a full-spectrum formula, you are giving your skin a wide range of compounds found in the hemp plant.

The Quality of Our Ingredients

We believe that exceptional skincare starts with exceptional ingredients. Our CBD cream is made with high-quality hemp extract and a thoughtfully crafted base of clean, skin-loving botanicals. Our CBD Moisturizing Skin Cream is formulated with simple, recognizable, and naturally derived ingredients chosen for their proven nourishing and hydrating qualities.

Key Ingredients in Our Cream

• Aloe Vera Leaf Juice: A classic skincare staple renowned for its ability to deliver light, cooling moisture. It’s packed with vitamins, minerals, and amino acids, making it an excellent choice for maintaining healthy skin.
• Safflower Oil: A lightweight, non-comedogenic oil exceptionally rich in linoleic acid, which is an essential fatty acid that plays a vital role in reinforcing the skin’s natural moisture barrier.*
• Jojoba Oil: Structurally very similar to the natural oils (sebum) our skin produces, it’s absorbed quickly and easily, delivering moisture deep into the skin.*
• Vitamin E: An ingredient widely used in skincare that is known for its antioxidant properties.
• Essential Oils: A delicate blend of Orange, Lemon, and Bergamot essential oils provides a subtle, refreshing aroma without synthetic perfumes.

Why Sourcing and Extraction Matter for CBD Topicals

The quality of a finished CBD product is a direct reflection of the quality of the hemp it comes from and the methods used to extract its beneficial compounds. At NuLeaf Naturals, we are unwavering in our commitment to quality, which is why we oversee every step of our production process with meticulous care.

How We Produce Our Products

• Organically Grown Colorado Hemp: Our journey begins with hemp plants that are organically grown in the pristine fields of Colorado. We partner with farmers who use sustainable farming practices and pristine Rocky Mountain water to cultivate robust, healthy plants. This makes sure our plants are sourced from a clean environment.
• The Advanced CO2 Extraction Process: To capture the full range of beneficial compounds, we use an advanced method known as subcritical and supercritical CO2 extraction. This process utilises carbon dioxide under high pressure as a solvent, extracting the cannabinoids, terpenes, and other phytonutrients from the plant material. This is a highly regarded method in the industry for producing quality extracts. The method is solvent-free, preserving the delicate compounds, and is environmentally friendly.

How to Use CBD Moisturizing Skin Cream

One of the most significant advantages of our CBD Moisturizing Skin Cream is its versatility. It’s designed to be simple, effective, and easy to integrate into your existing daily wellness practices.

Incorporating the Cream into Your Routine

• For Daily Hydration: Apply a small amount to any areas that need hydration after cleansing your face and body in the morning.
• For Post-Activity Skin Support*: After showering, apply the cream to clean skin, focusing on areas that feel tight or dry.
• As a Nightly Ritual: Gently massage the cream into your face, hands, and neck as the final step in your evening skincare routine.

For an extra boost of hydration, apply the cream to slightly damp skin. A little goes a long way, so start with a small, pea-sized amount and add more as necessary.

What to Look for in a CBD Topical

As the market for CBD products grows, it’s more important than ever to be an informed consumer. Knowing what to look for can help you choose a topical that is right for you. Always choose a topical from a brand that you can trust.

Third-Party Testing and Transparency

Always choose a brand that provides comprehensive, third-party lab test results for its products. These results are documented in a Certificate of Analysis (COA). A thorough COA will confirm the cannabinoid content and the results of contaminant testing for things like pesticides and heavy metals. NuLeaf Naturals provides up-to-date, batch-specific COAs on our website, so you can verify the content of your product.

Clean, Simple Ingredients

Take a close look at the ingredient list. A CBD topical should be formulated with clean, recognizable botanicals and be made without unnecessary additives like parabens, sulfates, and artificial fragrances.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Can I use CBD cream on my face?

Yes, our CBD Moisturizing Skin Cream is formulated with gentle, non-comedogenic ingredients, making it suitable for use on the face.

How often should I apply CBD cream? 

You can apply the cream as often as needed throughout the day. For best results, we recommend a consistent daily routine, such as applying it once in the morning and once at night.

Will using a CBD topical make me feel “high”? 

No, applying CBD cream will not cause any intoxicating effects. The cannabinoids in a topical product interact with local cannabinoid receptors in the skin and do not enter the bloodstream in significant enough amounts to produce a “high”.

How is a CBD cream different from a CBD balm or salve? 

The primary difference is the texture and base ingredients. Creams are water-based and have a lighter, more absorbent feel. Balms and salves are typically wax-based, resulting in a thicker consistency that sits on the skin for longer.

How long does it take to feel the effects of CBD cream? 

The hydrating and moisturizing effects can be felt almost immediately. The experience from the CBD itself can be more subtle. Consistent, daily use is the best way to keep your skin moisturized.
