How CBD Works in the Skin

Our skin’s endocannabinoid system works just like that of the body’s, continually striving for a state of equilibrium. Due to its regulating and balancing abilities, CBD may be beneficial for a wide variety of skin types and conditions.

HOW DOES CBD WORK IN THE SKIN?

When cannabinoid receptors are activated, they regulate the skin’s normal function as a barrier. It has recently been discovered that our skin’s outer layer, the epidermis, has a dense network of CB1 and CB2 receptors. CBD interacts with these pathways across the epidermis and dermis for a range of regulatory functions + potential benefits.

We know that mammals have two types of cannabinoid receptors: cannabinoid receptor type 1 (CB1) and cannabinoid receptor type 2 (CB2). Both are present in the skin at various levels and are activated by skincare products that include high-quality cannabinoids. These receptors and their activity constantly affect all compartments of the skin and support their function.

CB1

CB1 receptors are well distributed throughout the skin’s layers, including keratinocytes, hair follicles, sebaceous glands, and nerve fibers. Activated CB1 receptors work to protect + regulate the function of these various cells.
CB2

CB2 receptors are widely expressed in a range of skin cells and appear to play a role in mediating inflammation and immune functions. When activated, these receptors suppress inflammation in the epidermis.
