For several years now, cannabidiol (nicknamed CBD) has been on everyone's lips. The molecule extracted from hemp - Cannabis sativa -, not to be confused with the psychotropic THC, is said, according to some, to have relaxing properties, completely legally. Despite sometimes too tempting promises, CBD is so intriguing that it is now making its way into our cosmetics (even the most intimate ones).
Because, not only does cannabidiol tackle anxiety, it also boasts a variety of skin benefits. Moisturizing, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant, this star active ingredient is so popular that beauty brands are incorporating it into dedicated ranges. But because it is expensive and restrictive to change your entire skincare routine, ID Swiss Botanicals is innovating by launching... a CBD powder to mix with your favorite products.
Formulated with 99.4% natural ingredients, Skin Stress Balancer is an innovative powder serum. Just like some skincare boosters, which invite vitamin D or self-tanners into our cosmetics, it allows you to add CBD to all formulas... as long as they contain water. This anhydrous serum actually needs aqueous agents to dissolve perfectly: it cannot be mixed with oil.
Its instructions for use in 3 steps:
- Apply a small amount of treatment to the back of the hand
- Apply 2 to 3 doses of the powder serum and mix
- Apply the whole thing to the face (the operation can be repeated morning and evening)
CBD VectorS, a double encapsulation that improves the stability of cannabidiol
Skin Stress Balancer contains a unique ingredient: CBD VectorS. It isolates, in lecithin and hemp oil, CBD, pine extract and vitamin E. This double encapsulation process provides such stability that the effectiveness of cannabidiol is multiplied by 10, compared to a simple dose of identical CBD.
The INCI list: isolmalt, aqua, cannabis sativa seed oil, pentylene glycol, pinus cembra wood extract, lecithinm, cannabis sativa leaf extract, cyclodextrin tocopherol.
Protection against UV rays, pollution and chemicals that limits inflammatory aging
The goal of these active ingredients? Limit inflamm'aging, a slow inflammation that accentuates premature aging of the skin. Promoting skin protection against pollution, tobacco, chemicals and UV rays, the Swiss serum reduces skin sensitivity by 67.5%. It also boosts the antioxidant effectiveness of vitamin E alone by 56%. According to ID Swiss Botanicals, its flagship active ingredient, CBD, also improves the natural cell regeneration capacity by 30%, reduces wrinkles by 28% and regulates the microbiome.
