What is CBD?

Cannabidiol or CBD is a non-intoxicating cannabinoid (component) of the cannabis plant with enormous therapeutic potential. It is one of over 113 cannabinoids that has been identified in the cannabis plant. Our hemp CBD beauty products do not contain THC (tetrahydrocanninol), the cannabinoid that is more psychoactive. All hemp that we use has been third-party lab tested for purity and is grown in the USA.

Hemp? CBD? THC? Terpenes?

Both hemp and cannabis are of the same genus, Cannabis, and mostly originate from the same species, indica. The main difference between hemp and cannabis, is in a number of cannabinoids: THC and CBD, that they contain. Hemp contains little to no THC. Terpenes also play a role in the therapeutic effects of the cannabis plant. Terpenes are the volatile scent molecules that give cannabis (and other plants) its unique aroma and flavor. There are over 200 different terpenes in cannabis plants.
