Strong vs mild CBD cream: What strength do you need?

CBD & skincare

When it comes to pain and inflammation, CBD may be the ticket to natural relief that you’ve been searching for. With its anti-inflammatory properties, hemp has been used as a pain relief for years so it is no wonder people are still turning to it as an alternative to hardcore medications. But with so many CBD creams on the market, it can be hard to know which strength is best. In this blog post we will be breaking down each strength of CBD cream that HempWell offers and outline its benefits so you have the confidence to reach for the right relief for you. 

Still deciding if CBD is right for you? Check out our handy guide by scientific expert Professor Mike Barns on CBD creams.  

What is CBD Cream? 

CBD cream is a topical skincare product infused with cannabidiol (CBD) which is a natural compound extracted from the hemp plant. It’s designed to be applied directly to the skin to help support localised relief from pain, inflammation, and muscle soreness

CBD cream can help:

  • Soothe sore muscles and joints
  • Support skin health
  • Reduce inflammation

500mg CBD Cream – Mild Strength

The lowest strength of cream we offer at HempWell is our 500mg Deep Relief. This is great for anyone who is a CBD newbie and wants to take it low and slow. 500mg is the perfect strength for minor muscle soreness and tension from workouts. 

1000mg CBD Cream – Moderate Strength  

1000mg is the most popular strength of cream we offer at HempWell. It is the middle ground for pain relief and is perfect for joint stiffness, back or neck pain and post-exercise inflammation.

2000mg CBD Cream – High Strength

The highest strength of CBD cream is 2000mg. This is double our maximum strength formula and is popular among customers with chronic and severe pain and inflammation. 2000mg is a great strength for arthritis or joint inflammation, persistent back pain and severe muscle soreness

Revive and rescue – CBD Skincare? 

While it is a great anti-inflammatory, CBD is often overlooked for its natural moisturising properties. If you are in need to CBD skincare look no further than HempWell’s revive and rescue range.  

200mg – Lightweight moisturiser  

200mg of CBD is akin to simple skincare. It is a gentle and lightweight formular that works on almost all skin types.  

500mg – For the dry  

500mg of CBD is a great option for people with dry and irritated skin, the CBD molecules soak into the skin and may provide a natural relief for conditions such as mild eczema.  

1000mg – For the very dry 

1000mg of CBD in skincare is great for very dry skin and may provide relief for eczema, flakiness and psoriasis.  

CBD Cream Concentration 

Concentration is much more important than bottle size in the world of CBD. You use less product with higher strengths and stronger creams may feel more effective on tough pain

CBD cream comes in lots of different forms so a high concentrate CBD cream in a larger bottle may not be a “strong” CBD cream. It is best to stick with a reliable CBD cream where the consternate of CBD goes up while the bottle size stays the same.
