*Love Lula: Ila Spa: CBD

As you'll probably know I've been theming my Love Lula Accredited Blogger picks this year. See my previous posts - 

January - SLEEP,  February LOVEMarch - AWAKENApril - BLOSSOMMay - FORAGE

June GROW, July - PLASTIC FREE JULY.

This month I chose CBD as my theme. I'd already bought two of Ila Spa's CBD products - their CBD Body Calm (100g - £56) and CBD Better Day Drops (15ml - £48) which are fantastic. I chose their CBD Gold Face Serum (50ml - £60)* (I added a little bit extra to be able to try this luxe product). 


Ila Spa's CBD is full spectrum. It contains a wide range of other cannabionoids alongside other plant chemicals which makes it more potent. Ila Spa work very closely with the farmers so know exactly where the oil comes from. CBD appears to influence the immune system, alleviating pain, reducing insomnia, anxiety, nausea & inflammation (it does not give you a high). I'll start with the product I chose this month as a Love Lula Accredited Blogger - CBD Gold Face Serum:

The range comes beautifully boxed and products are in black glass. The serum has a creamy texture and smells divine. It'll hydrate, nourish, calm and make your skin glow. Formulated with CBD Oil and Liposome, which help to reduce pain and inflammation, Argan & Moringa oils which are rich in fatty acids, Cactus oil regnerates thanks to a high dose of linoleic acid which encourages new cell production and contains Vit E. Collodial Gold helps to retexture & repair improving elasticity, healing & brightening. It's scented with exotic Jasmine.

To use: apply one or two pumps to clean skin AM and PM. Best used underneath CBD Face Cream.

I've loved using this exquisite serum which brightens & hydrates, smells incredible & leaves the skin with a radiant glow as well as a sense of calm.

As you can see I'm simply loving CBD Body Calm. I've found it a great help at alleviating nerve pain in my thigh. It's packed with CBD (which helps to reduce pain and inflammation), as well as essential oils including Rose Damascene, Petitgrain and Cedarwood (smells soo good, rich and aromatic), which have been selected for their grounding and warming properties. St John’s Wort is believed to calm inflamed skin, to alleviate nerve pain and may be beneficial for sciatica, neuralgia and soothing minor burns. Calendula is considered to have a powerful anti-viral effect, as well as being a powerful astringent. Arnica is known to reduce pain and inflammation, increase circulation by stimulating white blood cell activity and to treat bruising.

To use: massage over the skin after a bath or shower. It really is a "hug in a jar".

Again, huge love for this product, I couldn't live without it now!

The third product I bought from Ila Spa's CBD range is CBD Better Day Drops. Inside is a blend of premium high dose (5%) CBD oil which helps to stimulate nerve responses, reduce pain, inflammation and bring a sense of calm. The drops have been flavoured with vanilla to give a more palatable taste.

To use: 1-2 drops under tongue 3 times a day.

I like the herbal earthy type taste. The vanilla gives it a slight sweetness. I like using the drops (when I remember to take them!) They bring a sense of calm.

Have you tried anything from the range?
