Kiskanu's Skin Rub is a mildly scented salve that is light on the skin yet deeply moisturizing.
This Skin Rub is a blend of CBD**, St. John’s Wort, comfrey, and lavender in a silky smooth base of cold-pressed olive, hemp, jojoba, and coconut oils, with beeswax to seal everything onto the skin and protect it from outside elements.
Let’s talk about topicals.
Kiskanu’s expertise lies in creating topicals. Rather than being used internally, topicals are applied to the surface of the skin to interact directly with that area for targeted effects. Instead of entering the bloodstream for full body effects, the CBD and other cannabinoids interact with endocannabinoid receptors in the skin. They are typically used for localized pain or soreness, inflammation, skin irritations, etc. Click here to learn more about how topicals work.
All Natural, Organic Ingredients
The quality of ingredients are of utmost importance when it comes to topicals (the largest organ in your body is your skin, after all!), and Kiskanu cuts no corners with their Skin Rub. Their base of all cold-pressed oils means that every oil retains its nutrients (such as vitamins and minerals) since it isn’t altered at all by heat or refining processes.
Here’s a breakdown of the benefits of each ingredient, as outlined by Kiskanu*:
