"Naturally G4U - Be Well CBD Illuminating Facial Oil" has a good moisturizing formula.
Ingredient callouts
We are excited that this moisturizer contains Cannabidiol, or CBD (1.20% - 1.80%). CBD is a new active in cosmetic products, and the studies on its effect in skin are still going on. CBD is one of the compounds in the cannabis plant. It does not have any psychotropic effects. When used topically, CBD can bind to skin cell receptors and "change their behavior". It can help reduce inflammation, itching, and help support skin barrier function. It also might be able to reduce acne.
