How to Make Cannabis Infused Lotion

CBD is one of the most versatile compounds that is currently being sold. This chemical was once thought to just be another of the hundreds of cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant. However, we have recently discovered the benefit of this chemical. One area in which CBD is making waves is in the health and skincare industry.  The pain-relieving effects of the cannabis plant make it an ideal additive to infuse into your salves, balms, and lotions. These products are applied to the affected area, and once absorbed they can quickly soothe chronic or acute pain. You can either buy special cannabis-infused lotions, or you can read this blog and discover how to make your own!

 

Here is what you will need to make your cannabis-infused lotion

1. 4 TBSP softened Shea butter
2. 3 TBSP Coconut Oil
3. 1 squirt of honey
4. 2 drops of CBD oil
5. 1 drop of lavender oil
6. 1 Matte Plastic Stand Pouch with Top Flip Cap Spout

 

How to make it:

• Combine the Shea butter, coconut oil, and honey into a mixing bowl
• Once the ingredients are thoroughly combined, add the CBD and lavender oil
• Using a funnel, fill a flip-top bottle pouch with your lotion
• Close the lid and store your lotion in a cool, dry location to maintain its shelf life

 

 

 

How to use:

Dispense a small amount of the lotion and gently apply it to the affected area. If the pain persists, apply more, or mix in 2 additional drops of CBD oil into the lotion.
