Cannabis beauty and wellness products have gone mainstream.
As products laced with CBD find their way onto the shelves of Sephora, Barney’s, Estee Lauder, and Ulta Beauty, analysts believe the trend could be a significant catalyst.
"We have seen a high level of interest in cannabis beauty from retailers over the past month based on our store checks and incremental launches. We expect further retailer developments in the coming months,” noted analysts at Piper Jaffray, as quoted by CNBC.
Given sizable interest, Piper Jaffray believes the CBD market could be worth up to $100 billion.
Along the way, it’s creating a significant sales opportunity for several companies, including The Yield Growth Corporation (CSE:BOSS)(OTCQB:BOSQF), Tilray Inc. (NASDAQ:TLRY), Green Growth Brands (CSE:GGB)(OTC:GGBXF), HEXO Corporation (TO:HEXO) (NYSE:HEXO), and Canopy Growth Corporation (NYSE:CGC)(TO:WEED).
The Yield Growth Corporation (BOSS)(BOSQF) just announced that its subsidiaries completed the formulations and initial testing for 10 new products to be infused with cannabinoids, including four facial skin care products, four essential oil wellness blends, and two foot creams.
For example, subsidiary, Urban Juve developed four new products that will add to its product line this year, including an eye cream, a cream cleanser, a liquid face cleanser and facial cleanser pads. It has also developed four exotic essential oil wellness blends for everyday use.
These blends contain Urban Juve’s patent pending hemp root oil which promotes superior transdermal absorption. They are tentatively entitled “Energy Boost”, “Headache”, “Sleep” and “Stress”. All are designed to easily be blended with THC or CBD oils.
Yield Growth subsidiary UJ Topicals has also developed two foot-creams that are intended to be infused with cannabinoids. The first is intended to relieve pain and provide moisturizing for dry, cracked feet. The second cream is intended to contain a higher concentration of THC to relieve pain from blisters, bruises, inflammation, sore heels, bunions, corns or calluses. UJ Topicals next steps are to infuse the creams with THC through licensed cannabis manufacturers so that the products can be brought to market.

Green Growth Brands (GGB)(GGBXF) is a likely beneficiary, as well. The company, whose goal is to become North America's leading retailer of cannabis and CBD products, is preparing to market its CBD personal care products under its Seventh Sense Brand.
It also just opened its first Seventh Sense CBD shop in Kentucky, where it is selling botanical therapy CBD-infused personal care and beauty products, including a CBD-infused body lotion, muscle balm, body wash, bath salts, a sugar scrub, a bath bomb, lip balm, and face oil.
However, this is just the start for GGB, which is looking to launch stores in malls across America, signing prime lease agreements throughout the U.S. In fact, it just recently entered into an agreement to gain access to 108 prime shop locations operated by Simon Property Group.
