PÜR CBD Tinted Lip & Cheek Balm

"PÜR - CBD Tinted Lip & Cheek Balm" is a well-rounded moisturizing product. The formulation is based on a combination of good humectants and emollients. Both are needed to increase the skin hydration level. Humectants in this product (sodium hyaluronate and butylene glycol) help to increase the water content in the upper layer of the skin. (These ingredients do so by "capturing" water molecules from the outside air or from within the deeper layers of the skin). Emollients in this formulation (astrocaryum murumuru seed butter, cannabis sativa seed oil, caprylic/capric glycerides, diisostearyl malate and ethylhexyl palmitate) 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

• We are excited that this lip product contains Cannabidiol, or CBD (0.80% - 1.20%). 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 compouns in the cannabis plant. It does not have any psychotropic effects. When used topically, CBD can bind to skin cell receptors and "change their behaviour". It can help reduce inflammation, itching, and help support skin barrier function. It also might be able to reduce acne.
