Hi, there….. Are you a fan of Natural Products? Have you ever tried CBD skincare products?

This may sound incredible, but it was not so long ago they forbade them here in Belgium. Ah yes, our government is, as you might say, a tad overprotective. They may still think we will all get high from those CBD skincare products.

That reminds me of a Holiday where I was so high, my tongue turned blue. I am not kidding you, not at all. Believe me, it’s the truth and nothing but the whole truth.

It was on a Summer Camp in Arlberg near Tirol, if I recall the name correctly. I was 13 years old. There are still a lot of cool things I remember. One of them was an excursion we were all excited about. We had taken the bus in the morning to Vienna. I can’t say that I still know a lot from what happened in the daytime, it’s all a bit of a blur. Not that it wasn’t a fun day, because it was.

Late in the afternoon, we returned to camp. We were all having fun on the bus, singing and laughing. Then the bus stopped. The driver stepped out to see if there was something he could do to fix the problem and get the show back on the road. Ah, you guessed it right, he couldn’t.

It meant we had to walk the last part. Not a tremendous problem for 13-year-olds, you may think, but it was a steep road, leading to the mountaintop. Some of us were in excellent condition and got up the mountain in no time. Others were not that fast, but they made it up without too many problems.

Then there was me, and a girl I had become friends with. We were the last ones up the mountain path. I could feel my heart pounding in my chest, as I was gasping for breath. Everyone was waiting for the last ones to arrive.

They all stared at me. Some looked concerned, others horrified as if they had seen nothing like it. My tongue and lips had turned all purple blue because of the lack of oxygen. Of course, I wasn’t high on drugs, just high up in the mountains.

I know, you are all waiting for me to tell you some more about the CBD skincare, natural products from Dutch Green Alternative. They sent me their Care Balm in return for my honest opinion.

What’s it for?

CBD Care Balm targets an array of skin issues like acne, eczema, rosacea, and dry or inflamed skin.
It’s an intensively caring balm with a large proportion of high-quality hemp oil, cannabidiol (CBD), and calendula. They traditionally used the calendula extract’s beneficial effects for wound healing.

The CBD Balm is used to relieve localized and chronic pain like arthritis, joint pain, muscle inflammation, and soreness, as well as common skin conditions like dry, itchy skin, rashes, and blisters. In combination with hemp oil, CBD, and above all the valuable essential fatty acids, it soothes the skin and heals wounds.

How does it work?

Cannabinoids can be divided into two different types. The body’s own endogenic and exogenic cannabinoids. The latter are not native to the body and can be found in the cannabis plant. The two best-known examples of this are THC and CBD.

Research shows that when THC, an exogenic cannabinoid, is ingested, it will interact with the CB1 and CB2 receptors in our body. The THC will activate the receptors in the same way that an endocannabinoid will.

Unlike THC, CBD does not bind to receptors. This substance prevents the FAAH and does its job in that way. The FAAH enzyme plays a role in the breakdown of anandamide. Anandamide is a natural cannabinoid that plays a very important role in regulating pain and the transmission of our happiness hormones.

This way, the body’s own endocannabinoid system works together with the exogenic cannabinoid. The ECS is increasingly being investigated. We can conclude so far that the endocannabinoid system is indispensable for our health.

How to use it?

Apply a thin layer of CBD balm on the skin and leave it on. You can do this 1 to 3 times a day and continue until you see improvement. A thin layer of our balm is sufficient.

Are the CBD products of Dutch Green Alternative natural?

Yeah totally! Hemp cultivation is 100% organic without the addition of, for example, pesticides or other growth aids. Naturally, our products are tested before we market them.

What did I think?

Some of you may have read somewhere in my blog posts that I have a skin condition called Rosacea. I had problems with it for years, assuming there was nothing to do about it. It’s not just the redness, pimples, or swelling that was annoying, but the itching was the worst.

Since it was getting worse a few years ago, I decided to see a dermatologist. She prescribed me a special ointment which managed to keep it more or less under control.

About a week ago, I stopped using the ointment so that I could fully test this CBD skincare product. After a few days I noticed the redness was coming back, and the annoying itchy feeling too.

I waited a few more days before I started applying the care balm, and yes, it worked. Can’t vouch it’s going to work for all skin conditions, because I only have one. Which is more than enough. What I can say is that they have a customer rating of 9,0 based on 296 customer opinions, which is a lot.

A minor negative was the scent for me, but once it is penetrated into the skin you no longer notice. My skin felt nice and soft, and once a day was enough to prevent the Rosacea from flaring up again.

If you need other CBD products, they also have different types of oils, a CBD face mask, and CBD lotion. Check out their website if you are curious about more.

Hope you like my blog…..Until next time…..Have a nice day
