CBD has become wildly popular over the last few years, and for good reason. There are all sorts of ways that CBD helps the body and mind. Bath bombs have become a way to help relax after a hard day or you just need some de-stress time. Did you know these two things can be combined? Yes, there is in fact, CBD bath bombs. But is this just a gimmick meant to capitalize on the CBD craze, or do they really work? We are going to explore what CBD bath bombs are good for.
The CBD in CBD Bath Bombs
CBD oil is a diluted form of cannabidiol, a chemical compound that derives from the cannabis plant. CBD and THC (The chemical compound that gets you high) are both derived from the same plant. However, CBD does not make you high. Full-spectrum CBD oil contains all the phytochemicals naturally found in the plant from which it is derived. This includes beneficial terpenes, cannabinoids, and essential oils. It also includes negligible amounts of THC (less than 0.3 percent). Broad-spectrum CBD utilizes all parts of the plants, except THC.
The CBD oil combined with other ingredients such as Shea Butter is how a CBD bath bomb is made. The CBD comes in contact with you in 2 ways, direct on the skin as the bath bomb is absorbed in the water and the vapor from the warm water coming into contact with the bath bomb.
