If there was ever a book titled “CBD Hemp Products for Dummies” – I would have been the first person to buy it. This momma sure needs an intervention. All this time I just made presumptions about CBD and hemp-oil beauty products that now I believe were baseless cuz I had never taken the time to actually educate myself. I was under the impression that CBD products make you high and your body gets addicted to them. But after reading about B GREAT, their story, their extensive line of beauty and skincare products, and trying out the products for myself, my entire perception has changed and now I am really keen on learning more about CBD and beauty.
Now you might be wondering when there are so many cruelty-free, and non-GMO products available out there, what makes B GREAT so great?
Well, first let me mention a few talking points about CBD.
CBD, or cannabidiol, is a naturally-occurring substance found in hemp. It is one of many “cannabinoids,” a series of closely related compounds that interact with the human body’s endocannabinoid system to help regulate our overall physical health. When a system or function of the body is imbalanced, the endocannabinoid system synthesizes internal cannabinoids to bind to the system’s receptor proteins and stimulate a return to balance. If the body is unable to produce enough of its own cannabinoids, supplemental phytocannabinoids can help fill in the gaps and bring the body back into homeostatic equilibrium. CBD products are federally legal, they contain antioxidant properties and help reduce any bodily inflammation.
Now coming back to B GREAT products.
- B GREAT products contain full-spectrum hemp, not hemp isolate. Full-spectrum hemp products use the whole plant which includes CBD plus a wide range of other nutrients, as opposed to products labeled “CBD isolate” which only include pure CBD without the other beneficial compounds. Full-spectrum hemp components all work together to help your body metabolize CBD more efficiently.
- Full-spectrum hemp contains, in addition to CBD, a range of naturally occurring compounds including terpenes and phytonutrients, which work in tandem to produce a stronger effect on the body.
- B GREAT products are non-psychoactive, which means they contain less than 0.3% THC and will not get you high.
I tried their entire Skincare Bundle which comprised of:

Give your face the pampering it deserves with their signature antioxidant-rich anti-aging cream. Specially formulated for the face and neck, this Antioxidant Cream contains 100 mg of 100% full-spectrum CBD to help minimize inflammation and rebalance the skin.

Hemp After Shave Serum
This is my favorite from their skincare line. If you have sensitive skin like mine and prone to bumps and sores post shaving, this is what you need. Say goodbye to painful razor burn and irritation with B GREAT’s ultra-hydrating After Shave Serum.

Congratulations to Shelbee of Shelbee on the Edge, she is the featured blogger of the week.
Now it is your turn to share your favorite looks.
These sound like amazing products. I held out for the longest time but finally tried CBD. Finding the right one is so important but once that’s done… Amazing!!
These sound great – I had no idea about the fact that some products only have the CBD isolate vs. the whole spectrum of hemp goodness when including CBD. I think I need to try out this brand!
Saumya, thank you so very much for the feature today! What a pleasant surprise! It just made me smile so big and I needed that today! Your jeans are so adorable. I want a pair of polka dot denim! Also, I have been a huge advocate for the health benefits of both CBD products as well as the straight up pure form herbs! I have written a bit about how much these products have helped me. I am glad that you are also finding the benefits. These look like really great products. I will definitely look into this brand.
