Increased Hand Washing Creates a New Market for CBD
CBD is one of the special cannabinoids in cannabis that stands out for many reasons. Research into the compound
helped to identify numerous bene cial uses of the compound. The non-psychoactive nature of the compound made it
easily accepted and widely promoted its use. The cannabinoid promotes a calm and relaxed feeling and is used

medicinally for pain relief and in ammation. CDB is commonly used in di erent forms such as tinctures, topical creams,
and transdermal patches. It should be noted that the increased hand washing that we're seeing in the world because of
the COVID-19 pandemic is opening up a new market for CBD. Read on as we explore the possibilities in this new market
opportunity for CBD.
An emerging market
The year 2020 was placed largely in the shadow of the events around the COVID-19 pandemic. The growth and
worldwide spread of the virus placed di erent governments in a tough situation to curtail the spread. The use of face
masks, frequent hand washing, and social distancing was projected as moves to curtail the spread of the virus. Despite
the skepticism at rst, these methods caught on and became a common part of most societies. Even when nations had
to go into full lockdown procedures, hand washing remained a frequent act to stop the spread of the virus.
The need for increased hand washing has the capacity of opening a new and string market for CBD. This is evident by
the growth in sales of lotions by Cornbread Hemp, a CBD company. Cornbread Hemp has two CBD cream products for
sale. This includes the 200mg CBD lotion for the skin and the 500mg CBD lotion for joint and muscle discomfort. The
initial observation by the brand was that sales of the 500mg lotion doubled that of the 200mg lotion for the skin. This
trend was observed despite the fact that the 500mg CBD cream was double the cost of the 200mg cream.
A di erent trend however followed suit in March 2020 with the onset of the pandemic. The 200mg CBD lotion steadily
increased in sales and this was due to its e ectiveness in caring for dry hands. One of the downsides of having to wash
your hands frequently is that it may leave the hands dry after some time. The CBD lotions for the skin made by
Cornbread Hemp attended to this problem and ensured that the hands were soft and smooth. This reality poses the
chance of creating a strong market for CBD bearing in mind that COVID-19 is a global issue.
CBD lotions (https://cannabis.net/shop/cbd-store/?category=Cream+%2F+Lotion)
CBD lotions are di erent from other CBD products such as CBD salves. Despite the fact that both are applied to the skin
for seemingly the same purpose, their e ects and e ectiveness are quite di erent. CBD salves are oil-bases and are
usually made from beeswax. Their e ects when applied to the skin is that they tend to sit on the skin. They also have a

downside of collecting dirt making them less e ective. They are also counterproductive for conditions like eczema. CBD
lotions on the other hand absorb quickly and help to make the hands smooth and soft.
Frequent hand washing though bene cial for curbing the spread of COVID-19 is unpleasant for some. People with
underlying skin conditions tend to have issues with having to wash their hands multiple times daily. This is because it
can lead to cracked and chapped hands and be very painful when it dries out. A common class of these people is those
su ering from hand eczema which is approximately 10% of the US population. Though moisturizers, steroid creams,
and tar-based ointments are normally used for these conditions, they o er little help to settle the issue. This creates a
good opportunity for CBD lotions to come to the rescue.
CBD lotions prior to the 200mg lotion by Cornbread Hemp were mostly made from CBD isolates. This o ered less than
what is available with a full spectrum CBD lotion. Full-spectrum CBD lotions have the added advantage of the entourage
e ect of other cannabinoids. This helps to improve the e ectiveness and usefulness. This is why Cornbread Hemp
made a CBD full spectrum lotion and since then, CBD full spectrum lotions have been on the rise.
Marketing the products
Following the identi cation of this opportunity, the next thing is how rms in the CBD industry can maximize this. This
tends to pose a problem due to the impact of restrictions by the FDA and the counterproductive actions of some other
CBD marketers. In order to get the attention of the public, some CBD marketers go as far as making unsubstantiated
claims about CBD. This includes making claims that CBD can deal with cancer, COVID-19, and many other baseless
claims. The FDA responds to this by targeting such brands and their products for misleading the public.
This poses a problem for other honest CBD brands in the industry because there is a limit to their marketing power.
Brands with products like CBD lotions that can help dry hands cannot market them e ectively because they get the
same treatment by the FDA. However, pending the time that the situation changes with the FDA, the onus remains on
CBD rms to do the best they can to safely get their products out there. The stance of the FDA is sure to change soonest
but pending that time, a huge niche for CBD lotions will be going to waste during this pandemic if not properly
maximized.
Bottom line

The COVID-19 pandemic has a ected our daily lives and the economy. However, it has opened up opportunities for
some new markets to thrive. Delivery services and e-commerce have been on the rise and so can CBD lotions if properly
utilized. The need for increased hand washing creates a good niche for the use of CBD lotions if properly maximized.
Provided the marketing issues are settled and the CBD lotions can get to the public, they will do a world of good
especially for people with underlying skin conditions such as eczema. (https://cannabis.net/blog/medical/cannabis-for-

OPINION
Why Main Stream Media is Still Anti-Pot
Where the Free Press was supposed to be a way for the people to hold the government accountable, the corporate structure of modern day media turned the Free
Press into a mouthpiece for political agendas.
