You wouldnt imagine it from looking at the average stoners skin but cannabis could be the next big ingredients in skincare.
Cannabis has anti-ageing and skin-protective properties, according to New York dermatologist Dr Bobby Buka.
Theres just one problem you cant smoke it, because the hydrocarbons in smoke wreck the collagen in your skin.
Hence firms are looking to dream up lotions and potions which will deliver the herb safely into your skin.
Victoria Buchanan, trend analyst at The Future Laboratory, said, Growing support for legalization and an increased awareness of the potential benefits of cannabis are the driving forces behind this ingredient.
It is also crossing over into fragrance. Florabotanica by Balenciaga is a floral scent developed on a rose note with a narcotic hemp twist, while Cannabis Santal by Fresh is described as a sensual, woodsy fragrance.
