Have you tried CBD salves or other topical applications? Topical products are applied to the skin and can include salves, lotions, creams, serums, and other bath and body care products. But you may be wondering if Unrefined CBD is actually effective when applied topically, and if so, how it works.
CBD salves and creams are designed to absorb into your skin. Many report a sensation of relief after using CBD salves and topicals, while others use these products purely for the skincare benefits. There are so many reasons to love topical CBD!
CBD Salve / Topical FAQ's
How does the Unrefined CBD SALVE work?
Short answer: There's a special set of chemical receptors on cells throughout the body that respond to cannabinoids. Our dark salve finds these in the skin and tells them to chill out.
Long answer: Like other CBD products, our dark CBD salve works by acting on the endocannabinoid system. Everyone has an endocannabinoid system whether they use CBD or not. When you apply our dark salve to your skin, the CBD can bind to endocannabinoid receptors located under the surface.

How should I use the DARK CBD SALVE?
You apply our dark CBD salve just like you would any other cream or lotion - rub it on your skin!
Are there any side effects with topical CBD?
Short answer: Generally speaking, no.
Long answer: Topical CBD products are not associated with any side effects. However, there’s always a possibility that your skin could be sensitive to an ingredient in any body care product.
For example, some people are sensitive to coconut oil or shea butter, which are common natural ingredients that are found in some topical products. These ingredients work for lots and lots of people, but they can cause irritation to some. So if you seem to have any reaction or irritation associated with a cream you are using...stop using it.

What are the DARK CBD SALVE ingredients?

I left my salve in a hot car and it appears to have separated, is this a problem?
Short answer: Nope, everything’s fine.
Long answer: This shouldn’t happen if stored at normal room temperature, but if left in the sun or a hot vehicle the various oils and waxes in the salve may separate into a grainier texture. This has no impact whatsoever on the effectiveness of the product. We’ve actually had some customers say they prefer it this way (shrug).
