CBD Body Lotion 1000mg

Description

An unscented 1000mg CBD body lotion built light rather than thick, for arms, legs and backs rather than one joint. Fast absorbing is a texture claim and not a cannabinoid one: a lotion is an emulsion with a large water phase, so most of what sinks in quickly is water, and that is also why the formula needs a preservative system which is named in full on the bottle.

What is in a bottle of cbd body lotion

Total milligrams, the base ingredients and the preservative system. Concentration is the figure that decides whether a bottle is strong or merely large.

• CBD body lotion: 1000mg of cannabidiol per bottle
• Base: emulsion with a water phase and a declared preservative system
• Fragrance: none, and no masking scent
• Texture: light and fast absorbing, for large areas
• Testing: every batch, with the results published by lot
• Price: $39.20, with the price per milligram printed under it

Why a large bottle of cbd body lotion is a dilute one

A thousand milligrams in a two ounce tin is roughly 17 mg per gram. The same thousand in a large pump bottle is a quarter of that, and both would print 1,000 on the front. That is not a trick, it is the point: a CBD body lotion for arms and legs is meant to be used by the handful, and a concentrated balm spread that thin would be an expensive way to moisturise. Concentration appears on every listing in the topical range so the comparison does not require unit conversion.

What is in the base of a cbd body lotion

A lotion needs three things beyond its actives: a water phase, an oil phase and a preservative system to stop the water side growing anything. Ours is listed in full instead of hidden behind the word natural, because a preservative free water containing cosmetic is either refrigerated or a problem. There is no menthol, camphor or capsaicin in this one. Where those appear elsewhere in the range they are declared cosmetic ingredients and we describe them as nothing more than that.

Testing a cbd body lotion

Every batch is assayed by a laboratory with no ownership connection to this company for cannabinoid content, heavy metals, pesticides and microbials. On a water containing cosmetic the microbial lines are the realistic failure mode rather than potency, and they are the first thing to read. Batches under their printed milligrams are withdrawn from sale and the failing certificate stays on the public results page beside the ones that passed. Reading the panel line by line is covered in how to read a certificate of analysis.

What the published topical work actually measured

A stated concentration on a defined area, in a handful of studies. Human research on cannabidiol applied to skin is limited and generally describes a gel or cream at a given milligram per gram strength, with one frequently cited trial using a transdermal gel at 250 mg per 100 mL. The bulk of the mechanistic work is in vitro or in rodent models. Because skin is a barrier organ, how much of anything crosses depends on the vehicle, so figures do not carry between formulations. That is a description of the literature, not a claim about this bottle, and the papers are indexed at the National Center for Biotechnology Information.

Practical notes

External use only, and patch test a small area first. An unfragranced base is the easiest thing to patch test, since a reaction to scent and a reaction to a base are otherwise hard to separate. Keep the cap on; an open emulsion is an invitation to the microbial panel. Paying in Bitcoin takes 3 percent off the order total, applied before shipping, and the minimum order on the store is $100.
