I will confess that I am a little nutty when it comes to our skin… I am legitimately acne prone and I fight breakouts on a quarterly basis.
- I don’t eat meat, eggs, sugar or milk due to how it affects our skin.
I also scrub our pillow cases, sheets and PJs more frequently than most. I have a whole line of skincare products that I use on our face and body. I am official with salicylic acid, Azelaic acid, and tea tree oil infused products. I use cleansers, moisturizers, serums, oils and masks. I do a whole regimen in the day, midday and at night; Even with all of this, I still suffer from blackheads, dry skin and acne spots, what certainly has changed the game is cannabis oddly enough. I did some research on acne treatments and found that cannabis has been connected with being helpful, however so cannabis can reduce inflammation in the body which means the red bumps on our face look less annoyed. Cannabis also reduces the amount of sebum the body produces, this is the oily substance that clogs pores and creates acne in the first place. Since I didn’t want to buy pre-rolls or a vape or take in sugary treats, I went the topical route for our cannabis products. I have a cream that has CBD in it that treats our acne. I wear it at night and put a light layer on in the daytime! My bumps dry out right away with the cream and hardly look like acne anymore. I still use our other products, however the cannabis cream is much stronger.
