Cannabis has long been part of global wellness traditions, and in recent years, its use in personal care products has gained momentum. As legalization has expanded and research grows, more consumers are turning to cannabis-derived ingredients to support daily skin, hair, and nail routines. While individual experiences vary and more research is needed, many topical cannabis products are designed to promote hydration, balance, and a sense of nourishment.
The human body contains a network called the endocannabinoid system (ECS), which plays a role in regulating various physiological functions—including those related to skin and hair. Cannabinoids like CBD and THC are thought to interact with this system, which is why cannabis-derived compounds have become increasingly common in topical products.
While ongoing research continues to explore these interactions, many people incorporate cannabinoids into their wellness routines through lotions, balms, oils, and creams, seeking comfort and support for the skin and scalp.

These applications are part of a broader movement toward natural ingredients and plant-based formulations in beauty and wellness.
Terpenes are aromatic compounds found in cannabis as well as many herbs and fruits. They’re valued for their unique scents and are increasingly being used in skincare and haircare products for their sensory properties and possible complementary effects. Here are a few terpenes commonly found in cannabis:
Often associated with citrus fruits, limonene is known for its fresh scent and is used in products designed to refresh and uplift.
Found in lavender, this terpene is popular in calming formulations and may enhance the sensory appeal of topical blends.
Frequently used in moisturizing blends, myrcene is one of the most common cannabis terpenes.
This terpene has been studied for its interaction with the ECS and is a common component in wellness-oriented products.
Known for its presence in chamomile, bisabolol is often included in gentle formulations designed for sensitive skin routines.
Some cannabis consumers enjoy aligning their topical product choices with the terpene and cannabinoid profiles of popular strains. While these strains are typically inhaled or ingested, their aromatic and botanical profiles also inspire the formulation of infused lotions and balms.
Many people turn to topical cannabis products as part of their personal care routine. These include:
