Lips: the area where our skin is especially thin and sensitive. Did you know that our lips do not have glands that could produce oils for natural protection? If the skin doesn’t have enough oil, it consequently lacks in hydration, because moisture needs fat to remain in the skin. Oil deficiency therefore leads to dehydrated skin. Of course, genetics, daily liquid intake and lifestyle are all important too, but the condition and protection of our lips are still largely dependent on our targeted attention and care.
Intensive care for particularly sensitive lips
Besides the insufficient skin oil formation and the subsequent proneness to dehydration, it is also the external environmental influences that play an important role in the condition of our lips. Exposure to intense sunlight, heat, wind and cold, rapid fluctuations in temperature and inadequate care can quickly lead to dry and chapped lips that are more susceptible to ageing and dehydration. All of the above can influence the appearance of viral changes on the skin as well. One of the more troublesome ones is, for example, herpes, that tends to appear at exposure to high temperatures, hormonal imbalances, or a sudden weakening of immune system.
We already have a tried-and-true solution for all the aforementioned issues here at Hemptouch: our Intensive lip balm that offers a strong antiviral protection with its clove extract. Besides that, it also substantially nurtures and softens the lips because it contains cold-pressed hempseed oil and beeswax that ensure long-lasting care and protection.
Because we wanted to offer you everyday moisturising care too, we are launching a new product in October: Hydrating CBD lip balm for all your lip care needs.
Hydrates, softens and soothes dry and dehydrated lips. With its 100% natural formula, this lip balm combines the calming and nour.. Details
The new Hydrating CBD lip balm for all your lip care needs
CBD is a compound that’s found in hemp and supports our natural endocannabinoid system. The main task of this system is maintaining homeostasis or, in other words, the natural balance of our organism. That is made possible by a complex network of neurotransmitters and receptors spread across our entire body surface. Our cannabinoid receptors can also be found in the epidermis, which allows plant CBD to actively cooperate with them and thereby maintain proper balance, as well as alleviate various symptoms. Even though their interaction is gentle, it’s still incredibly stimulating for our organism. CBD helps diminish inflammatory changes, soothes the skin, and effectively alleviates the discomfort of dry and damaged skin.
As an antioxidant, CBD can also help the skin stabilize free radicals, thus successfully protecting it from environmental oxidative stress. It helps reduce redness and irritation around the lips, helps moisturise and soften the skin, as well as soothe the effects of skin reactions.
CBD needs assistance too
CBD cannot perform all the necessary tasks on its own, of course, so it needs active ingredients to support its targeted effects and help it moisturise, soften, and repair. That’s why our Hydrating CBD lip balm has a few indispensable companions:
- Hempseed oil; one of the most active natural oils, it deeply replenishes and nourishes the lips with the ideal ration of omega 3 to 6 fats and helps strengthen the skin’s self-protective role.
- Jojoba oil; an extremely moisturising oil, whose composition is closest to that of sebum, so it absorbs quickly and helps the skin retain its much-needed moisture.
- Beeswax; creates a natural protection that prevents moisture evaporation, softens and protects against external factors, as well as makes the lip balm last longer.
- Bisabolol; a chamomile extract known for its soothing effect and for helping damaged skin regenerate faster.
- Invigorating lime; the cherry on top for luscious and glossy lips.
A little extra vigor, juiciness and playfulness never hurt ;)
Lime essential oil is like a ray of sunshine on a gloomy day. It’s known for lifting our spirits, filling us with optimism and indulging all of our senses. However, we shouldn’t overlook its exceptional antibacterial effect that helps protect the lips and, as a result, paints a smile on our face in every way.
Hydrating CBD lip balm contains a combination of natural ingredients that soothe, soften, and intensively moisturise the skin day after day. With regular use, your lips will be daily moisturised, supple, shiny, and always balanced.
