CBD-infused topicals have taken over the CBD market and it’s easy to fall in love with one of these products. If you have tried them before, but have not the results you want, then you might be wondering how to tell if they are working.
The 2019 US Insider Consumer Report shows that 58.1% of CBD users use CBD to relieve pain and inflammation. The Arthritis Foundation’s 2019 report found that 79% had used CBD before or were considering it. 55% of CBD-using patients used topical treatment for their joints.
CBD topicals are a great option if you want CBD to relieve pain. Because they are topical products, they don’t have to be absorbed into your bloodstream. They work on the skin’s surface. CBD topicals are formulated with many beneficial natural ingredients, which help to soothe the skin and joints faster than oral supplements. They are, however, of different quality and provide different effects.
It’s thrilling to add a new product to your self-care regimen. But, you may be wondering if the topicals you have applied to your skin are actually working or if it’s just a placebo effect. This article will help you determine if topicals are right for you.
Factors That Influence The Efficacy Of CBD Topicals
The Quality of a Product
All CBD products, even topicals, have different qualities. Even though CBD has been proven to be effective for many people, it is possible that you will not experience the same results if your CBD product does not meet your expectations. There are many unreliable CBD brands that make unproven claims about CBD products in the CBD market.
In 2020, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), conducted a preliminary study that found that CBD products have different CBD levels than advertised.
The label may not indicate how much CBD the product contains. Low-grade CBD products can contain pesticides or heavy metals. Always check third-party lab results before purchasing CBD topicals. The quality and purity of a product can be confirmed by testing.
Dosage
Another factor that can impact the effectiveness of a product is its CBD content. There is no one CBD level that will work for everyone. However, there are many CBD potencies available to help you determine which CBD dose works best for your needs.
Type Of Product
There are many options available for CBD topicals. Some may be suitable for your joints and muscles, but others can be used for your skin, like CBD moisturizers, or products that promote relaxation, like CBD bath bombs. CBD roll-ons and CBD salves are the best CBD topicals to relieve discomfort.
How Do I Know If Topicals Are Working?
The immediate effects are felt
Additional ingredients in CBD topicals such as menthol and eucalyptus can provide immediate relief for your skin even before CBD penetrates it.
The Difference You Feel
It is hard not to notice the difference in your discomfort when you suddenly feel relief. If you don’t experience any noticeable results from CBD topicals it could be that they aren’t working for you or the product isn’t the best.
What to do if topicals don’t work
The product won’t be absorbed by your skin.
Topical CBD interacts with ECS receptors beneath the skin. If CBD is not absorbed into your skin, the interaction will be difficult. Many products are difficult to absorb and therefore less effective. Many products contain beneficial natural ingredients that aid penetration such as menthol or eucalyptus.
How Do You Choose A CBD Topical That Works?
The results you get from CBD topical products will depend on the product you choose. You can be sure that you are purchasing a reliable brand that provides information about the product, including the origin of their hemp. The quality of CBD is directly affected by where it comes from. Hemp that has been grown in contaminated areas will result in unwanted ingredients being added to the product. Brands that offer a certificate of analysis (COA), for each batch of their products, are worth looking at. Third-party lab testing determines the ingredients of the product and helps you to see if they are safe and have the desired effects.
Also, ensure that you are checking the ingredients other than CBD to make sure there aren’t any artificial preservatives. High-quality CBD topicals will contain hemp-derived CBD and natural, beneficial ingredients that have their own benefits. They help CBD penetrate the skin to interact directly with ECS receptors.
Choose products that provide relief. All CBD topicals contain CBD as the main active ingredient. However, some CBD products may also contain other natural ingredients that target specific conditions. CBD topicals for pain often contain soothing ingredients such as menthol, lavender, and eucalyptus. These ingredients work together with CBD to produce the desired effects.
