A topical is a cannabis-infused product applied to the skin, such as a lotion, balm, salve, roll-on or bath product. Topicals are made by mixing cannabinoids like THC or CBD into a cream, oil or wax base, often with other ingredients like essential oils.
Most topicals are generally non-intoxicating. When applied to the skin, cannabinoids usually do not reach the bloodstream in meaningful amounts. That is different from transdermal patches, which are designed to pass through the skin into the bloodstream and can be intoxicating. Read the label carefully to know which type you have.
Topicals are widely marketed with wellness claims. We do not make health or medical claims about any topical. If you have a skin condition or take medication, talk with a doctor before using one.
Before using a new topical, test a small amount on a patch of skin to check for irritation, especially if it contains fragrances or essential oils. Keep it away from eyes and broken skin.
The label should list the mg of cannabinoids per container. Store topicals away from heat and out of reach of children and pets. Ask our staff what is currently in stock.
