Review: Awakened Topicals

This beautiful little balm is the perfect fix for aching muscles as we fall into a healthier new year. When applied to a sore neck the day after a yoga session it noticeably relieved tightness within a period of about 10 minutes. The salve is made with olive oil infused with cannabis alongside other aromatic offerings like calendula, frankincense, myrrh and St. John’s Wort. Cannabis topicals respond to the endocannabinoid receptors within the skin and are a great way to explore the many benefits of marijuana beyond the “high”.

The all plant-based topical is also excellent for areas such as the hands and face. When applied to the lips, the salve tastes like an incredible all-natural chapstick – bringing together the terpenes present in the medley of herbal offerings in the ingredient list. The balm leaves skin feeling soft and is a perfect remedy for dry winter months. Awakened Topicals balm comes recommended for both pain relief and attaining mindful meditations.
