This is the whole skincare range together: four CBD creams for everyday use and massage, from 1000mg to 5000mg. The CBD isolate in our own creams is lab tested. If you’re in Camden, come and try them on the back of your hand before you pick one.
Balms
A balm is semi-solid. It’s CBD (cannabidiol) from hemp blended with oils and waxes. Everything on this page is a lighter cream, and only the two Royal Hemp Co. ones have beeswax in them. It goes on your skin, and CBD isn’t intoxicating, so no high. All four have lavender essential oil in them, which gives them a nice smell.
Creams
Creams are lighter and water-based, with plant oils and moisturisers. They soak in fast without feeling greasy, so they’re better for big areas and daily moisturising. See just the CBD creams, or our CBG cream.
Which one?
| Balm | Cream | |
|---|---|---|
| Texture | Thick, waxy, little or no water | Light, water-based |
| On the skin | Stays on longer, glides well for massage | Soaks in fast, not greasy |
| Good for | Massage, small areas | Large areas, daily moisturising |
| How much | Pea-sized | A bit more, spread thin |
Balms are popular with massage therapists, runners and gym regulars because of that glide. Plenty of people use our creams on hands, elbows and heels. All four are made with plant oils, and the full ingredients are on every product page.
Picking a strength
The mg on the jar is the total CBD in it. Higher means more CBD per gram, and the gentler ones are fine for everyday use. If you’ve never used a CBD topical, something mid-strength is a sensible start. If you want to avoid fragrance, check the ingredients: all four have lavender essential oil.
How to use a balm
Wash the area with warm water and a mild cleanser and pat it dry. Straight after a warm shower works well. Take a pea-sized amount for a hand or shoulder (a bit more for your back or legs), warm it between your fingers, and massage it in slowly for two or three minutes. Once or twice a day is typical, but follow the product’s directions. Wash your hands afterwards so you don’t get any near your eyes or mouth.

Frequently asked questions
Is CBD good for your skin?
CBD creams are popular in skincare, mostly because of what they’re made with, like plant oils and, in Royal Hemp Co.’s, vitamin E. We’re not allowed to say CBD treats any skin condition, and if you have one, it’s best to see your GP or pharmacist.
Is CBD cream legal in the UK?
Yes, as long as it’s made from permitted hemp extract and meets UK cosmetics rules. The CBD isolate in our own creams is lab tested; the certificate covers the ingredient, not each finished tub.
What is CBD balm used for?
Mostly for massage, or on hands, elbows and heels.
Who should not use CBD balm?
If you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, on medication or have a medical condition, ask your doctor first. If you have allergies, read the ingredients, and try a small patch of skin before using it properly.
What’s the difference between CBD cream and CBD balm?
Texture, mainly. Balm is thick and waxy with little or no water, which is great for massage. Cream is lighter and water-based, so it soaks in fast and is better for bigger areas and daily use.
Where can I buy CBD cream in the UK?
Here online, with UK delivery (free on orders of £60 or more), or at our shop in Camden.
How long does CBD balm last?
Unopened, it’ll keep until the best-before date. Once it’s open, a pea-sized amount goes a long way, so a jar usually lasts a good few weeks of regular use. Keep it somewhere cool and out of the sun.
What is CannaPower CBD Soothing and Calming Cream?
Our own CBD body cream, in 1000mg and 5000mg (both 100ml tubs). It’s light, soaks in quickly and is made for everyday skincare and massage. The CBD isolate in it is lab tested.
How do I use CBD balm?
Warm a pea-sized bit between your fingers and massage it into clean, dry skin with slow circles until it’s gone in. Wash your hands afterwards.
