Created by massage therapist and former NBA wife, Megan Blackwell, whose celebrity clientele includes some of the most active professional athletes on the sports scene and celebrities in the entertainment industry suffering from chronic pain, the much-talked about CBD-powered BESO Wellness has just come onto the market this month.
The line, born in Los Angeles through Blackwell’s private practice, is becoming a national brand based on an overwhelming push from her celebrity clients to make the products available commercially and to a wider audience. BESO Wellness has launched three SKU’s which are available direct to consumers at www.BESOWellness.com, distributed through Kali Botanicals, in various dispensaries in the state of California, on WeedMaps.com and at LiveLoveSpa.com.
What’s unique about BESO Wellness is that the formulations feature some of the most powerful CBD, CBD/THC and Hemp ratios on the market with superlative anti-inflammatory ingredients and emollients chosen for their healing reputations from myriad of clinical research, global and spiritual traditions. The fragrance is clean, exotic and evokes sense memories of pan-spiritual significance. There are 7 SKUs in total:
Designed for deeply penetrating soft tissue therapy, the rich and moisturizing BESO Body Whip ($60.00) comes in a CBD/THC ratio (3:1 ratio), CBD-only and hemp-only and and is paired with African shea butter, kukui, grapeseed, tea tree, black seed, turmeric, lavender, frankincense, myrrh, sandalwood, and mustard seed oils.
The lighter BESO Body Milk ($60.00) can also be used as a high-performing daily facial moisturizer and is designed to therapeutically soothe and smooth with a CBD/THC 2:1 ratio, a CBD and Hemp-only formulation. The quickly absorbing milk features white shea butter, kukui, grapeseed, tea tree, black seed, turmeric, lavender, frankincense, myrrh, mustard seed oil and Vitamin E.
The BESO Hair Cocktail ($60.00) also comes in a 1:1 ratio CBD/THC formula, CBD-only and Hemp-only formulation; it was created to provide relief for common hair-related conditions ranging from dandruff, dryness, chemical damage to itchy scalp, alopecia, and is a particularly nourishing beard treatment.
“I have lived all over the world which sparked a deep interest in healing and study of many spiritual traditions,” said BESO Wellness Founder, Megan Blackwell. “Black seed oil has been used in the Middle East for centuries as an alternative medicine to hundreds of diseases and talked about by Muhammad to ‘heal every disease except death.’ The mustard seed is a legendary antioxidant and has been used to relieve muscle pain. In India mustard seed oil is used to promote hair growth and mustard plaster poultice has been used in folk cultures globally to reduce chronic aches. Frankincense and myrrh are used in Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine. In a clinical trial journaled by the National Institutes of Health, the two have been combined as drug pairs in the same prescription for thousands of years, and the combination creates a new chemical composition with pharmacological effects that include anti-inflammation, ‘synergistic anticancer, synergistic analgesic, synergistic antibacterial and synergistic blood-activation’. These, combined with the powerfully healing properties of cannabis have provided incredible effects for my clients and for me as a practitioner. It is my hope that the emergence of this line will continue this good work for the many who suffer from chronic pain.”
My experience: As I mentioned above, I had been having pain in my hips and thighs at night for about two years (probably just from getting older, unfortunately.) It is kind of hard to describe, but if I laid too long on either side of my body in bed, I would be awakened by a throbbing pain from my hips and thighs- down to my knees, and it really hurt. So, I would get up and take Ibuprofen or Acetaminophen. I hated taking either one because one really wrecked my stomach, and the other has the potential to harm my liver- plus they did not provide relief for long.
So, when I was given the opportunity to review Beso Wellness products, I was very happy to give this brand a try.
I usually take my shower at night before bed, and always use body lotion to seal the moisture into my skin, so I started out using the Beso Body Milk. With all of the skin nourishing ingredients in this product, my skin is left luxuriously silky, soft and soothed. I love how it absorbs perfectly into my skin and does not feel heavy or greasy. I make sure to concentrate on the areas of my body that give me problems- my hips to my knees. I could not believe that during the night after I first used this body milk, I did not wake up from pain at any time!
On nights that I do not take a shower, I make sure to apply the therapeutic Beso Body Whip onto my problem areas before putting on my pajamas to go to bed. This product is a bit thicker, but it also absorbs very nicely into my skin without leaving an annoying residue. It has a nice, creamy texture that blends nicely into my skin. I love the way it makes my skin feel. And both products smell wonderful and fresh, too.
And again, I never wake up during the night due to pain while using either one of these amazing products. I am just shocked at how well Beso Earth’s Kiss CBD Wellness products work! For me, it is a miracle to be able to sleep through the night without any pain! I am so thankful that I discovered this. It is so nice to know that I do not have to suffer the aches and pains of getting older with the help of Beso Earth’s Kiss CBD Wellness.
