Cannuka CBD Skincare ($9-$58)
With so many cannabis-based skincare products hitting the market these past few years, it’s hard to tell what makes one different from the other. Cannuka aims to change this by touting not just the power of their main cannabis ingredient, but also the benefits of their other key ingredient—honey.
Founded by husband and wife duo Michael and Kelly Bumgarner all the way up north in Postdam, New York, Cannuka uses a unique combination of hemp-based CBD and Manuka honey to provide a skin care treatment that simultaneously calms the skin while also healing it.
Their CBD, derived from hemp and completely THC-free, acts as a natural antioxidant that not only helps the skin look more radiant and youthful, but also offers powerful anti-inflammatory properties that are great for conditions like acne, psoriasis, and eczema. Meanwhile, the unique ingredient of Manuka honey acts as a powerful antibacterial and antimicrobial agent that contains amino acids and helps balance the skin’s pH. And that’s not all. Additional natural ingredients like vitamin e, hemp seed oil, rosehip oil, and grapeseed oil contain powerful free fatty acids that help both replenish and protect the skin too.
Cannuka’s current skincare collection includes a calming eye balm, a nourishing body cream, a healing skin balm, a hydrating lip balm, and a powerful cleansing body bar, with more products and offerings in the works for the future.
