WHY CBD
WHY CBD?
CBD is a naturally occurring compound within the cannabis plant. At Auxacann we believe these cannabinoids have the natural ability to work wonders. Our bodies have an intricate system designed to heal themselves, and when CBD pairs with the cells of your body's own endocannabinoid system, it combats the overstimulated immune system. CBD allows your body to work for itself, rather than against itself, restoring balance and harmony within the body.
TOPICAL CBD
Topical CBD has been shown to help soothe inflammatory skin diseases (like psoriasis and dermatitis, along with regular skin conditions such dry skin, oily skin, and acne, which in turn, can help decrease it. CBD also has natural anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that can help reduce irritation and free-radical damage,” But what’s the connection to aging and wrinkles?
More and more consumers are now using CBD to treat all kinds of maladies, from insomnia and nausea to muscle pain and depression. So maybe it shouldn’t be a surprise that now CBD is turning up in all kinds of high-end skincare serums, gels, masks, and creams, all of which make different claims. Some aim to alleviate dry skin, others can prevent pimples, and some smooth wrinkles.
How does it work? Like other powerful antioxidants, CBD can help reduce visible signs of aging. CBD topicals can soothe inflammation and counteract damage from free radicals, improving signs of aging such as wrinkles, ruddy skin tone, and skin dullness and making them less noticeable. In this post, we will cover how CBD can reduce wrinkles and slow down the aging process. But first, we need to learn what causes skin aging.
CAUSES OF SKIN AGEING
As the skin matures signs of the aging process begin to show, it’s not as firm as it was. When you age, your skin loses both nutrients and essential proteins. Most significantly collagen, a protein that keeps your skin plump and wrinkle-free. At age 25 we start to lose collagen and elastin in our skin, however between age 30 and 35 cell renewal and turnover continue to decline, leading to a duller complexion, uneven skin tone and appearance of skin ageing. Therefore, to classify mature skin is the age 35 +. You may start to find out that the skin is more noticeably sagging, stretching, and exposed to damage more easily and dead cells don't shed as frequently. Your skin does not regenerate new, healthy cells as quickly which can cause skin to appear dull and rough looking. The epidermis begins to flatten, and your skin become more fragile and transparent, it’s more likely to bruise easily.
t’s not yet possible to prevent aging, but there are things we can do to target, prevent, and in some cases reverse premature aging. This is particularly true given that so much of what causes signs of aging skin (such as sunlight exposure or poor diet) originates outside the body and within our control.
CBD AND AGING
Antioxidants are one of the keys to fighting the ravages of aging, and that’s the first reason that CBD topicals can help visibly diminish issues like skin dullness, wrinkles, and ruddy skin tone.CBD Extract helps combat wrinkles and reduce signs of the aging process in the following ways:
Has an Antioxidant Effect
CBD from the hemp plant has even more powerful antioxidant properties than vitamins C and E. These antioxidants help reduce free radicals which wreak havoc throughout the body—including attacking the collagen fibers. CBD also fights harmful free radical by-products of natural bodily processes such as toxins, not just externally sourced free radicals.
Fights Inflammation
CBD has anti-inflammatory properties that can treat skin inflammation, relax the skin, and reduce redness, leaving existing damage such as wrinkles less visible. These anti-inflammatory effects also make CBD topicals effective treatments for eczema and psoriasis. GLA and the essential fatty acid omega 3 also reduce inflammation and gently moisturize the skin.
Encourages Sebum Production
One of the keys to dealing with both signs of aging and acne is regulating sebum or oil production in the face. CBD and hemp oil both regulate the oil glands to maintain the correct level of sebum production. Optimal sebum production means smoother, less sensitive, more supple skin.
Soothes Sensitive Skin
CBD oil also boasts notable skin-normalizing, soothing, and calming benefits and can help minimize skin sensitivity issues, including reactivity and redness. These benefits can help anyone’s skin cope with the rigors of exposure to environmental stressors. When you think about anti-aging properties and CBD, you might have mostly prevention of skin damage in mind. There is some evidence, though, that CBD may help reverse existing signs of aging as antioxidants.
Final Thoughts
