By Emily White

The summertime is all about getting some much needed rest and relaxation. What better way to satisfy your selfcare needs than adding CBD-infused skincare to your summer regimens?

The colder months might’ve left you feeling stressed and depressed, which can significantly affect your skin’s appearance and texture. Adding CBD to your skincare helps you get your skin much-needed TLC. CBD has hydrating and anti-inflammatory qualities which reduces redness and leaves the skin looking supple all summer long.
