From makeup to skincare, products containing Cannabidiol (CBD) oil are on the rise. With the beauty industry booming and attracting all ages, races and sexes, beauty experts know that to keep up with the incline, new products have to hit the market on a regular basis. With 2019 upon us, it’s no surprise that Congress passed the Agricultural Improvement Act of 2018, also known as the Farm Bill.
What is it and why should we in the beauty industry care about it?
The “Act” legalizes the production and transportation of hemp and hemp products. The beauty industry has been waiting on the passage of the Act to be able to formulate and sell personal care products containing CBD oil.
CBD is the non-psychoactive chemical that can be found in marijuana and hemp plants and now it is being used in moisturizers, body washes, makeup and other products. According to research, CBD has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that help people improve their skin problems, including acne and wrinkles.
Be on the lookout for new and exciting products from your favorite beauty brands. From pain-reliving creams, skin serums and moisturizers, to sublingual drops, beauty companies are all jumping on board with high hopes to bring new and exciting products to their consumers.
