BOTA CBD Defending Cashmere Eye Crème

"BOTA - CBD Defending Cashmere Eye Crème" is a well-rounded moisturizing product. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. BOTA - CBD Defending Cashmere Eye Crème ticks this box. Algae extract, glycerin and caprylyl glycol in this product (humectants) attract water molecules to the upper layer of the skin (the water comes from the outside air or from the deeper layers of the skin if the air is dry). Emollients in this formulation (algae extract, cannabis sativa seed oil, persea gratissima oil, theobroma cacao seed butter and cetearyl alcohol) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.

Ingredient callouts

• What makes this product special is the inclusion of Cannabidiol, or CBD (3.50% - 5.20%). CBD is a new active in skincare, and the research about it is still ongoing. It is already clear though that CBD can bind to skin cell receptors. It can help reduce inflammation, itching, and help support skin barrier function. It also has a promise in reducing acne.
