Such a versatile product as honey. Of course, the most typical application is to pour honey over pastries or use it as a sweetener in hot tea. Yet honey is also used in many homemade recipes for good health.

Mask with CBD-Infused Honey (Opens in a new window)

As spas and aestheticians disappear, maskne rages (it's a real thing), and individuals spend more time at home, skin care and self-care are more important than ever.

Making your own DIY face mask adds some originality to the process of getting a facial, which has become a mainstay in many modern skincare regimens. You get to choose your own components and adapt your recipe to the requirements of your skin. And unlike skin care items from the shop, you can relax knowing that each component has been given the thumbs-up by the most crucial authority – you!

We suggest using our Luce Farm Health Hemp-Infused Honey for this recipe since it is prepared with raw Vermont honey and has been blended with our certified organic full-spectrum hemp extract. As an alternative, you may combine any kind of raw honey with Luce Farm Health Full-Spectrum Hemp Extract. If you decide to make your own CBD honey, think about adding a serving quantity that is comparable to the 10 milligrammes of CBD that each teaspoon of our hemp-infused honey provides. Coconut oil is also required for the preparation. If you like, you may use our Luce Farm Wellness Hemp-Infused CBD Coconut Oil instead of any other kind of coconut oil.

The advantages of using this face mask are as follows:

Exfoliation: The oats in this formula work as a physical exfoliator, encouraging cell turnover and gently scrubbing away dead skin cells and debris accumulation on the top layer of skin.

Hydration: The chemicals are very effective in assisting your skin in retaining moisture, which helps to lessen dryness and produce smooth, hydrated skin.

De-puffing: Your face may seem bloated and uneven if fluids accumulate under the skin. Everyone may experience this when they are worn out, stressed, or ill. Reduce puffiness by massaging a face mask into the skin.

Brightening: Honey contains vitamins and antioxidants that may nourish the face and enhance a drab complexion.

Honey and CBD may both contribute to the equilibrium of your skin. When your skin might need a health boost, this recipe is a great option.

Everything you'll need is as follows:

Ingredients

two tablespoons. Other raw organic honey, such as Luce Farms Hemp-Infused Honey

One spoonful of raw oats

12 teaspoon melted jojoba or coconut oil

Notes on Ingredients:

Raw honey is preferable over processed honey for skin care. Honey loses a lot of its health benefits when it is pasteurized at high heat.

Oats are a mild exfoliator that may be used to help exfoliate dead skin. You get to choose the exfoliating method. Use whole, unprocessed oats if your skin is very dry. Consider pulsing the oats into a grainy or powdered texture in a food processor or blender for an even softer exfoliation effect.

Be careful not to microwave or heat Luce Farm Wellness CBD-Infused Coconut Oil since doing so might destroy the cannabinoids. Instead, slowly melt the oil in a hot water bath.

Optional Add-Ins: The wonderful thing about making your own face mask is that you can use whatever combination of ingredients you have on hand to create a mask that is unique to your skincare needs. Here are a few recommendations:

Full-spectrum CBD: You may simply add a few drops of CBD tincture to your mask mixture if you don't have hemp-infused honey or if you want to add more CBD to the mix.

Aloe vera: There's a good reason why aloe is suggested for burns from cooking and the sun. It may reduce skin redness and is very hydrating. If you have a home aloe plant, pluck off a leaf and squeeze out some juice to add some freshness to your face mask.

Cinnamon: If you often have oily skin, cinnamon might revolutionize your skincare regimen. It has various health-promoting qualities and, when applied topically, may absorb extra oil.

The popular Indian and Southeast Asian spice turmeric has numerous benefits for relaxing the skin, but you should be aware that it may stain your skin, your washcloth, and sometimes even the bowl you use to mix it. While the yellowish tint left by a turmeric and hemp honey mask is readily removed in a few hours or the following day, it is not advised to apply this mask before a big social event or job interview.

Essential oils: These ingredients are often used in homemade face masks. Several drops may be used to offer a pleasant smell and several of their own health-enhancing qualities.

Some possibilities are:

• Aromatic lavender oil

• essential oil of lemon

• essential oil of roses

• Tea Tree oil is used.

When using an essential oil on your face if you have sensitive skin, try it on a tiny area first, such as the inside of your wrist.

Steps

• To a bowl, add all the ingredients.

• The components should be properly mixed.

• Use right away or put in the fridge in an airtight container.

Useful Hints for Your Hemp Honey Mask

Any time is a fine time to use your hemp honey face mask, but you may want to wait until the evening to get the benefits of this skin care routine.

Before applying your mask, first cleanse the skin with a gentle face cleanser. A hemp honey (Opens in a new window) mask mixture of 1-2 teaspoons should be applied to your whole face, taking care to avoid the eyes. Do not forget to cover the front of the neck and the area beneath the chin with the mask. These regions, which are sometimes overlooked in standard skin care regimens, might considerably benefit from the advantages of honey and CBD.

For best results, leave the mask on your face for 15 to 20 minutes. After the time has passed, gently exfoliate the skin by rubbing the mask in a circular motion with your fingers. Apply gentle pressure; it should feel exciting but not harsh.

Remove the mask by wetting a washcloth with warm water. Your skin will continue to absorb the nutrients from the mask over time, so there is no need to rinse with soap. Cleanse and moisturize as normal in the morning if used overnight. And if you're going outdoors, don't forget to put on your sunscreen.

For optimal results, use this hemp honey mask 1 to 3 times each week.

Advantages of CBD for skin care

Body imbalances are often to blame for skin issues. Inflammation often shows up as rosacea, eczema, and acne. All animals, including humans, have an endocannabinoid system, a neuromodulatory system that aids in the control of other bodily processes.

The production of endocannabinoids by the endocannabinoid system helps to restore equilibrium to the body's systems when they fall out of balance as a result of internal or external stresses. Anandamide and 2-AG are two endocannabinoids that our body makes. The cannabinoids in hemp extract have molecular structures that are quite similar to those of our endocannabinoids and may have comparable effects on our systems.

Just below the epidermis, cannabinoid receptors are found. Our skin can absorb cannabinoids like CBD and CBG, which provide precise effects wherever they are required. Because of this, goods like CBD moisturizers, bath bombs, and sports creams have become quite well-liked. CBD is a fantastic supplement to any skincare regimen and helps the ECS restore equilibrium to our bodies.
