Topical Ingredients That Work in Harmony With CBD Oil

​In a recent article, we discussed what ingredients complement the effects of CBD and what’s just filler. Here are some more ingredients that enhance theeffectiveness of CBD oil. 

Products that contain these ingredients can give you a more comprehensive CBD experience and ensure you’re getting the highest-quality products.

Rosehip oil

Rosehip oil is a linoleic-rich carrier oil. It’s best for nourishing oily skin types and perfect for anyone who doesn’t want a greasy feeling on their skin. 

Rosehip oil naturally contains vitamin A, C and E. These vitamins boost collagen production and increase cell turnover. This gives your skin a healthy glow, heals blemishes, and fades hyperpigmentation.

Because it absorbs quickly and deeply into the skin, rosehip oil is an excellent carrier oil for topical CBD. Rosehip oil enhances the anti-inflammatory properties and restorative properties of CBD oil. Together, they prevent skin cell breakdown and fortify the skin’s natural barrier.
Evening primrose oilEvening primrose oil is another linoleic acid that reduces skin inflammation. It also contains gamma-linoleic acid (GLA) which stimulates skin growth. 

It can also reduce transepidermal water loss, fortify the skin barrier, and regulate sebum production. This makes it ideal for people with sensitized, acne-prone skin. Paired with CBD, it works to balance and restore problematic skin types.

Arnica oil

Arnica oil is another carrier oil that is commonly used in homeopathic remedies. It’s been used to treat skin, hair, and scalp conditions. It’s also been used for pain relief, notably for pain from surgery, osteoarthritis, and skin lesions. 

If you have ragweed allergies, it’s possible that topical arnica could irritate your allergies because of the flower it’s extracted from. 

But if you don’t, topical arnica can give you many benefits that are enhanced by CBD. They work together to reduce inflammation and swelling, soothe pain, and prevent infection.
Carrot seed oilCarrot seed oil is a carrier oil taken from the blossoms of Queen Anne’s lace (or the wild carrot plant). Carrot seed oil is mainly found in anti-aging products, but it also has other benefits.

  • Antibacterial: studies show that it’s able to fight bacteria that causes listeriosis infections, staph infections, and even salmonella
  • Antifungal: it’s effective in fighting certain fungi, and against yeast. If you suffer from fungal acne (itchy, closed bumps, usually on the forehead), carrot seed oil could give you some relief
  • Antioxidant: these help scavenge environmental pollutants that break down skin cells and cause early aging
  • Anti-aging:the antioxidants in carrot seed oil also help to rejuvenate the skin. This is marked by brighter, smoother skin and faded hyperpigmentation
  • Anti-inflammatory: carrot seed oil has been used to soothe swelling, pain, and itchiness on the scalp and the skin

These many benefits work in harmony with CBD oil to soothe, balance, and restore a number of conditions. They’re both alike in that they address a large number of conditions that may otherwise need to be treated with unwanted chemicals or pharmaceuticals.

Helichrysum oil

Helichrysum oil comes from a type of daisy that grows in southern Europe and the Mediterranean. Like hemp, the whole part of this plant is utilized. Helichrysum oil is extracted from the stems and leaves of the plant. The flowers are often dried and used for other medicinal purposes.

Unlike arnica oil, helichrysum isn’t likely to cause allergies. It’s commonly used to reverse them. Helichrysum has been shown to reverse allergic reactions caused by touching an irritant. 

Because it’s also high in anti-inflammatory properties, it can soothe irritation or inflammation caused by the immune system. This gives it a unique advantage to other anti-inflammatory botanicals because it can soothe the reaction the immune system has to allergens.

It also can relieve muscle and joint inflammation. Much like CBD, it’s a very versatile and comprehensive botanical that’s ideal for soothing and restoring the body.

​Cardamom oil

Cardamom oil is an essential oil from a spice similar to turmeric. Just like turmeric, there is a long list of amazing health benefits you get from eating it often.

The scent of cardamom is sharp and sweet, and people often compare it to mint. In aromatherapy, it’s used to increase concentration and mental fortitude. This sense of grounding can be helpful for people struggling with the distraction that accompanies anxiety and depression.

Accompanied by the relaxing effects of CBD, this essential oil can mentally ground you and physically revive and restore you.

Geranium oil

Geranium oil is an essential oil that comes from the geranium flower. It has many benefits that have been acclaimed scientifically and anecdotally. Some of these qualities include antioxidant, antimicrobial, and astringent properties.

In aromatherapy, it’s had some surprising effects. There have been scientific studies on the aromatic effects of geranium oil on women in labor. In the first stages of labor, inhaling geranium oil calmed the women and notably reduced their stress.

Many people claim that the geranium scent also relieves depression and helps them to relax. This effect has been observed on mice in a recent study. CBD also has some antidepressant and anti-anxiety properties. Check out our latest article to learn more.
