My face hates everything. Retinol? Red. Moisturizer with fragrance? Angry bumps. This serum didn’t make me peel or flush — that’s already a win.
Most CBD serums feel like fancy olive oil on your skin. This one disappears. Like, actually absorbs. I didn’t have to sleep on a greasy pillow.
It’s $48 for 1 oz. Not cheap. But the bottle is glass and heavy — feels expensive. The claim that got me: “full-spectrum hemp for reactive skin without irritation.” I’ve been burned before, literally.
Absorption Speed
Dries in under 20 seconds. No sticky residue. You can put makeup on immediately.
Scent (Or Lack Thereof)
Smells like dirt and plants. No fake lavender or rose trying to calm you down.
Pump vs Dropper
The pump actually works. No sucking up half the bottle by accident.

Three things do the heavy lifting: hemp extract for inflammation, ceramides to patch up your barrier, and aloe to cool things down. No alcohol, no essential oils — the usual suspects that wreck sensitive skin.
- Full-Spectrum Hemp Extract: Calms redness at the source, not just on top
- Ceramide NP: Plugs the gaps in your moisture barrier — think spackle for face
- Aloe Vera Leaf Juice: Cools irritation without stinging
- Squalane: Hydrates without clogging — even my cystic acne spots survived

Thin gel texture. Slides like water. I put it on damp skin after washing — sinks in immediately. No tacky phase.
Week two, I got a weird dry patch near my nose. Put this on alone, no moisturizer. Woke up, patch was gone. That’s when I stopped doubting it.

Redness is down maybe 40%. Not gone completely — I still flush when I’m embarrassed or drink wine. But my skin doesn’t feel tight or angry anymore. No new breakouts. No stinging.

It won’t transform your skin. But if you just want your face to *stop*, this is it. No drama, no fragrance, no bullshit.
