Key Findings:  This study aimed to evaluate the absorption of cannabidiol (CBD) in different mediums into human skin cells. There was no difference in the absorption based on the concentration of CBD, 5% vs 10%. Oleic acid enhanced absorption, while essential oils had less absorption when compared to the control group. This information may provide practical application to improve the topical use of CBD in treating skin conditions.
