CBD creams are simply a cream or lotion that is infused with the most concentrated form of CBD. The CBD compound that is added to CBD creams is extracted by using a CO2 extraction. CO2 extraction is one of the purest and cleanest forms of extracting CBD. This method of extraction also makes sure that there are no solvents left in the extracted concentrate of CBD, as these solvents can be harmful to the skin. In order to make CBD creams, different essential oils like olive oil, coconut oil as well as cocoa butter or sheer butter are added to CBD oil to give it a form of the cream or lotion.

Since CBD oil is extracted from the hemp plant, which is the industrial version of the cannabis plant and it provides a high content of CBD and very low content of THC, which makes CBD oil legal. However, CBD oil is consumed sublingually, it becomes a part of the bloodstream. CBD creams are also popular because of the reason that it does not make a drug test appear positive.
