COMMON QUESTIONS

Cannabinoids including CBD and CBG have strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects at potent doses such as those present in MOOD Skin Care products. That means that they help your cells fight free radicals, which deteriorate cells and cause signs of aging such as fine lines and wrinkles. CBD and CBG also help calm skin, working with other ingredients to reduce and prevent acne breakouts.

Like CBD, CBG is a cannabinoid. CBG is short for cannabigerol, and it is the focus of several medical and cosmetic studies for its benefits to skin. In addition to being a strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory, it is also an antibacterial and anti-fungal, suggesting it can help reduce acne. Further studies have shown that CBG also helps cells retain moisture, which is especially important for aging skin and to prevent signs of aging in young skin.

No. Whether broad spectrum CBD (No THC) or full spectrum CBD (no detectable amounts of THC), topical CBD does not reach the blood stream and therefore will not make you high.

As a strong anti-inflammatory, CBD can help reduce existing inflammation and reduce the occurrence of breakouts. CBG has antibacterial properties and can further help reduce acne breakouts. MOOD CALM Face + Hand Serum is idea for managing acne breakouts. 

Keep in mind that hormonal acne has a high chance of reoccurrence and while CBD can help manage the breakouts, the underlying cause should be discussed with a dermatologist.

Yes. All MOOD ingredients are clean, clinic- or therapeutic-grade for optimal effect.

There is a difference between clean and all natural. Although MOOD focuses on including natural, plant-derived ingredients as much as is effective to produce results, some ingredients such as Retinaldehyde (think retinol but 4X stronger and works up to 11X faster) in ourILLUMINATE Skin Brightening Serum are synthesized. This classifies it a clean ingredient but not fully natural.
