Incorporating CBD Into Your Beauty Routine
CBD has been making quite a splash in the beauty and skincare industry—quite literally, bath bombs are an extremely popular item. Just ask Becky Gill, co-owner of Bath by Bex, a CBD-only skin care and beauty line centered around the company’s fizzy concoctions that come in sixty-five different scents, all vegan and made from natural ingredients. It took Becky six months to get the bath bomb recipe just right. She encourages her customers to use them for things like sore muscles or back pain, but she first used them for period cramps.
“I was like, ‘Oh my God, I actually have relief from these,’” Becky says. “I’d never used the CBD bath bomb before, I’d just found a marijuana salt at pot shops. I was like, ‘This is life-changing!’ I went back and they were sold out, so I was like, ‘Well, I have to make it, then.’ ”
By going the CBD-only route with her product line, she can ship and help people outside of Washington. Becky started the company in 2017 with her husband, Matt Gill, and their products were initially offered at events/farmers markets and online, but it recently moved into a brick-and-mortar store in Spokane Valley.
CBD skincare and beauty products are popping up in grocery stores, pharmacies, makeup stores, and, of course, online and cannabis shops.
Though Amsterdam Coffee Club isn’t a cannabis shop, it does share a building—and a general manager, Shawheen Azizi—with shop Sativa Sisters, and the coffee shop features a wide beauty/skincare line made by the company called “Yogastey.” The line includes everything from lip balms to beard oil.
“It’s wonderful that we can provide a non-intoxicating, non-addictive substance that you don’t have to go get from your doctor,” Shawheen says. “We collected good recipes that have natural ingredients.”
CBD-only skin care and beauty lines are being sold at traditional recreational cannabis shops, as well. Brandie Wright, who owns CBD of Spokane with her husband, developed a skin care regimen that uses CBD and other natural ingredients. The line includes a face serum, which she says is the most popular product. She also has a shampoo, conditioner, body lotion, face cream, and bath bombs. Brandie says that the ingredients will help decrease inflammation.
