DR JACK’S CBD RELIEF BODY BUTTER
BY LUCY MACKINNON
400mg of CBD in 115g
Body butters can go one of two ways for me as I suffer from
problematic skin. They can either make my skin even more red
and angry, or silky soft and smooth. I am happy and relieved to
say Dr Jack’s CBD Relief Body Butter did the latter.
I used this product for a week, applying in the morning and in
the evening each day to closely monitor the impact it had on my
skin and within a few hours of the first application I could feel
my skin getting softer.
The cream is unscented and non-greasy which is desirable in a
body butter. Its effects were long lasting which is why I opted to
only apply it twice a day. Within several days, the redness in my
skin had reduced significantly and it felt more nourished and
hydrated after each application.
What makes this product even better is that it is cruelty and
paraben-free.
HEMP BOMBS PAIN PATCH
BY GORDON STRIBLING
50mg CBD per patch
Having recently returned to football in my mid-30s, I’m getting very used
to firefighting pain. When someone recently stamped on my foot mid-
game, I had the perfect opportunity to give the Hemp Bombs CBD Pain
Patch a try.
The transdermal patch comes with 50mg of CBD along with menthol and
lidocaine. It is designed to slowly release CBD into the bloodstream and
can be worn for 8-12 hours.
I removed one of two patches and gently stuck it to my foot, catching a
light whiff of menthol along the way. The slim patch hugged contours of
the pain area, instantly allaying my concerns that it might become loose
as I went about my day.
I noticed that I was less distracted by the pain when sitting down than
I had been the night before. The patch also stayed securely in place
throughout the day.
While the patch didn’t completely numb the pain, it did take the edge off
while I was sat down working. I’ll be interested to see whether the brand’s
new CBD Pain Freeze rub takes Hemp Bombs’ power to the next level.
