Why It Is Special
Le Vesque CBD Luxe Skin Cream is for use on both face and body skin.
It contains 500mg of CO2 extracted, USA-grown, third-party tested Full Spectrum CBD. Research shows CBD reduces inflammation from acne, skin damage and chronic skin conditions. [1]
Le Vesque pairs CBD with high-performance, spectacular skin care ingredients. The combination treats signs of aging, scars, sun damage, psoriasis, acne, and eczema. It even counteracts dryness from frequent hand sanitizer use.
Le Vesque CBD Luxe Skin Cream is highly versatile. It pairs with both Le Vesque Face Cream and Le Vesque Body Lotion. It can be applied to the face daily. Luxe Skin Cream clarifies acne-prone skin and restores aging skin. It also improves the appearance of conditions on body skin.
One pump of Le Vesque CBD Luxe Skin Cream provides intensive CBD restorative abilities. ✽
This formulation contains ingredients often found in high-end boutique line skin care creams. Let’s take a look.
Ingredient Profile
Reishi mushroom has polysaccharides to boost moisture retention.
Full Spectrum Hemp-Derived CBD Oil
CBD Oil comes from Cannabis Sativa
Full Spectrum Hemp-Derived CBD Oil comes from the Cannabis sativa plant. Full-spectrum CBD does not give a “high” or altered sensation.
The CBD oil is 500mg of CO2 extracted, organic USA-grown, and third-party tested.
It contains skin-loving cannabidiol, cannabigerol (CBG) and antioxidant compounds.[2]
Cannabidiol Oil is high in Omega-3, 6 and 9 fatty acids.
It is also high in Vitamins A, E, and D. [3]
Reishi mushroom
Lactobacillus/Ganoderma Lucidum
Gandoderma Lucidum is Reishi Mushroom Extract. It is also called Asian Mushroom Extract or lingzhi. It is most often seen in higher-end anti-aging skin creams.
Reishi is known as the “mushroom of immortality” as it promotes cell regeneration.
Reishi has been used in traditional medicinal practice for health and beauty applications. It also reduces skin inflammation and puffiness.
Reishi is packed with polysaccharides to boost moisture retention. They boost the skin’s natural ability to hydrate and retain water. It also contributes to Reishi’s ability to reduce wrinkles.
It increases blood flow to increase nutrient delivery within the skin.
As with most topically applied mushrooms, Reishi is an excellent hydrator.
Lentinus Edodes
Lentinus Edodes is Shiitake Mushroom.
Shiitake mushrooms
This formulation uses highly concentrated Shiitake Extract Ferment Filtrate.
Shiitake is the anti-aging mushroom. It improves skin elasticity and protects against environmental damage. Shiitake is a biodynamic ingredient. It slows aging by reinforcing the skin’s biological protection mechanisms. [4] It is ideal for protecting sensitive and delicate skin. It also helps restore sun-damaged skin. [5]
Shiitake contains kojic acid. Kojic acid lightens discoloration.
Shiitake contains copper, which stimulates collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid production.
Shiitake also contains selenium to decrease irritation and calm inflammation.
Royal Jelly
Royal Jelly is a gelatinous bee product made to feed the queen bee. It is an anti-inflammatory anti-oxidant filled with skin-friendly nutrients. It smooths fine lines and wrinkles. It aids wound healing [6] and skin repair. [7]
Royal Jelly combats sun damage and can promote procollagen type I production. [8]
Royal Jelly
Avena Sativa
Avena Sativa is better known as Oat kernel flour or Collodial Oats. It is soothing to chronic skin conditions such as eczema.
Jojoba Seeds
Simmondsia Chinensis
Simmondsia Chinensis is Jojoba Seed Oil. Jojoba oil is an emollient, made of 98% monounsaturated fats.
Jojoba is an exceptionally gentle oil that is excellent for both face and body skin. Jojoba regulates oily skin, removes impurities and dry skin flakes.
Jojoba is soothing to dry, irritated skin and removes acne inflammation. Jojoba hydrates and softens wrinkles.
Jojoba is also a carrier oil, increasing the efficacy of other active ingredients. Jojoba enhances the ingredients it is paired with instead of creating an oily barrier.
Mangifera Indica
Mangifera Indica is Mango Seed Butter.
Mango
Mango is naturally high in copper. Copper builds Collagen, Elastin and increases Hyaluronic Acid production for smoother, more resilient skin.
It’s rich in oleic acid (an omega-9 acid); and the saturated fatty acid stearic acid. These moisturize, tighten, plump and firm the skin. It provides long-lasting moisture.
Mango is also rich in A & C to refine the skin.
Cetearyl Olivate and Sorbitan Olivate both use the fatty acids of olives
Cetearyl Olivate
Cetearyl Olivate is the fatty acid of Olives combined with a Cetearyl alcohol ester.
Cetearyl attracts and binds moisture. Cetearyl alcohol is one of the good alcohols that soften, soothe and heal dry skin. It is an emollient.
Olive fatty acids contain Linoleic acid which has a skin-enhancing, moisturizing and anti-inflammatory effect.
A very safe ingredient that emulsifies active ingredients together within a moisturizer.
It is a natural and safe alternative to PEG. It is made of a good alcohol & olive fatty acids.
Sorbitan Olivate
The fatty acid of Olives combined with sugar. Frequently used in combination with Cetearyl Olivate.
The olive fatty acids give deep hydration, smooth skin, and give the product a silky texture.
Grapefruit Peel Oil
Citrus Grandis
Citrus Grandis is Grapefruit Peel Oil.
Higher in Vitamin C than the fruit itself, Grapefruit Peel oil restores skin, fades discoloration, reduces blemishes and improves skin texture.
Grapefruit Peel Oil also adds an uplifting, refreshing scent to the cream that is an all-natural fragrance.
Tocopherol
Tocopherol is a form of Vitamin E, a soothing anti-inflammatory. It instantly improves the appearance of skin while improving skin texture over time.
Tocopherol softens skin texture and reduces scars. Vitamin E makes old acne scars softer and more pliable.
Tocopherol makes rough, sunburned, scarred, or otherwise damaged skin soft and pliable. Once the skin is pliable, other treating ingredients are more effective.
Glycerin
Glycerin is a natural humectant derived from vegetables.
What it does not contain
- Formaldehyde
- Parabens
- Phthalates
- Propylene Glycol
- Sulfates
- Synthetic dyes

The Experience
Face
Apply daily on face, focusing on areas of aging and dryness. Combined with nightly Le Vesque Luxe CBD Face Cream use, my typically dry sensitive skin is exceptionally soft and supple.
Pair the Le Vesque CBD Luxe Face Cream by night with the Luxe Skin cream by day for to maximize the power of restorative power of CBD
Application
One pump covers face and throat. While it absorbs immediately either way, I like to warm it just slightly between two fingers like Creme de la Mer to spread one pump of product over face *and* throat.
Luxe, rich texture with a smooth dry down
Feel & Drydown
Since it sinks right in, it isn’t really wet. Drydown just feels like soft skin, not waxy or sticky. My sunscreen and makeup do not pill or run on top of it. It is not oily or tacky so makeup doesn’t run either. I can apply sunscreen and makeup immediately.
Scent
The scent is natural and leafy with a grapefruit top note. The CBD does not have any lingering Hemp aroma. It dries down to a light grapefruit.
I am delighted to find a daytime CBD face cream that has no tell-tale hempy odor. It is completely suitable for daytime use even at the office.
Uses
I also like it as a post-treatment moisturizer. It immediately restored my skin after over-zealous Retin-A use and is fabulous after exfoliating or doing an at-home Glycolic peel. As a post-peel cream, it restores balance to the skin.
While it absorbs well on its’ own, I love pairing it with a gemstone roller to benefit from every last bit. And it feels wonderful and relaxing.
Body
I have chronic dryness and redness on my hands, especially cuticles and knuckles. My cuticles are often red and peeling normally, and increased handwashing and hand sanitizer use has made it even worse. My cuticles are red, cracked, and raw.
This is a soothing treatment not only for hands but is excellent on dry, chapped elbows.
When my skin looks dull, this helps soothe tired skin and accelerate its natural healing process.
Pair with the body lotion for use on dry or problematic body skin
Texture and Dry down
Just a pump of this thick cream absorbs rapidly into the skin. There is no oily or sticky residue on dry down. A small amount goes a surprisingly long way.
results
My chapped hands and cuticles look and feel better with every use! The effect lasts all day through multiple hand washings.
It is also a highly effective yet non-drying treatment for acne. It’s wonderful to find both an acne and anti-aging treatment that moisturizes skin while simultaneously helping (not irritating) skin conditions like eczema.
Packaging
The opaque pump bottle is airtight to protect precious natural ingredients. Each pump dispenses 1 ml of cream containing 10mg of CBD.
Le Vesque CBD Luxe Skin Cream
✽
Reputable & Quality CBD
This product uses 500 mg of CBD and can accomplish a great deal.
Have you previously used a CBD skincare product and found it lackluster? Even some boutique brands use subpar versions of CBD (looking at you CBD isolate). If so, you may not have experienced what quality CBD can accomplish.
Le Vesque takes several steps to ensure quality.
How to Identify a Reputable CBD Cream
A study in The Journal of the American Medical Association reported that more than sixty percent of online CBD products are mislabeled. [9]
YIKES.
How do you locate a quality CBD skin product?
Actual CBD has high cannabidiol, whereas Hemp Seed Oil has only trace levels. Choose products that have Certified labs measure the cannabidiol levels to ensure the CBD is actually what it claims.
Independent Lab Testing
A third party independent lab verifies that the product actually contains what the ingredient label claims. Third party testing indications include a Certification seal, lab report, product specification, or assay.
A CBD manufacturer should make this report available. On the report, look for the CBD levels. You want to see higher levels of CBD and very low levels of THC.
Le Vesque makes the independent lab report test results available right on each product page. Review the Luxe Skin Cream lab report here.
The lab report is the best indicator of CBD quality and cannabidiol levels.
Pre-Measured Dose per Use
Reputable products with generous levels of CBD tend to ensure that the optimal amount of CBD dispenses per pump or application.
There are no formal dose per pump mandates. But if a brand has pre-measured CBD per use, it generally indicates the company wishes to ensure the best CBD experience.
Le Vesque CBD Luxe Skin Cream dispenses a pre-measured CBD dose by a precise pump design.
Each 50 ml bottle contains 500mg of CBD. Each pump dispenses 1 ml of cream containing 10 mg of CBD.
Le Vesque CBD Luxe Skin Cream has 10mg of CBD per pump
Extraction Method
High quality CBD oil is obtained by CO2 extraction to ensure quality and consistency. This method is also the cleanest, using no harmful chemicals in processing. It is safer and it retains all of CBD’s healing properties.
Le Vesque uses only CO2 extraction.
Hemp Sourcing
Hemp grown in the USA for health and beauty use must meet certain FDA and Farm Bill standards and regulations.
Le Vesque only uses CBD oil from organic hemp grown on a northern New England family farm.
Le Vesque meets all the criterion for a high-quality, reputable CBD. It is also cruelty-free, inclusive of all skin types, and it is quite luxurious.
Le Vesque CBD Infused Luxe Skin Cream treats skin conditions other restorative creams cannot. regular use revolutionizes problematic skin.
The Skin Cream works synergistically with all the products in the Le Vesque invigorate range

ABOUT THIS POST
Like you, the Style Chicks team needs time to evaluate and form an opinion about the products we try. We received compensation for our time and effort to form an opinion of Le Vesque CBD Luxe Skin Cream and its’ benefits. We produced this blog post because we think this product is great and want to share it with you!
Natasha says
The ingredients in this look good. Reishi is amazing
Style Chicks says
We agree Natasha, we were so impressed with the ingredient profile: Reishi, Shiitake, CBD, Royal Jelly, etc. All natural and clean!
Ashlee B. says
How does it compare to a Cbd oil?
Style Chicks says
Good question Ashlee.
I do love a good oil, but for day I prefer a product that dries down and won’t be too oily a base for my sunscreen and makeup. This absorbs in very well, primes skin and gets rid of dry patches and flakes.
Some CBD oils are like a dry oil others are greasy and sticky. Some absorb like a hemi-squalene. If you wear makeup I definitely think you would prefer Le Vesque as a base over an oil. Hope this helps!!
Alanna says
I need something like this. The skin on my hands is scrubbed raw from handwashing.
Style Chicks says
Us too Alanna. The extra hand washing has been a challenge for skin prone to dryness. My cuticles got so bad they were cracked and even tore a few times.
I tried this on cuticles and knuckles and within 2-3 uses it was almost healed and back to normal. Only a tiny bit did the trick.
Moira Stratton says
Would i wear sunscreen under or over this? It looks thick
Style Chicks says
Good question Moira!
Yes, good under sunscreen. It is a melts into skin and dries without residue or film. No conflict with sunscreen or makeup.
Tara Brownstein says
I am almost done with my lord jones cbd but probably wont buy that again. Love Cbd but dislike the smell.
Maria says
This one doesn’t smell like CBD at all and the scent is really fine so it’s not overwhelming like other brands can be. I’ve been using it for about a month and I really like it
Michelle B says
That’s a lot of CBD 😳
Style Chicks says
Indeed Michelle!
Gwen says
Cbd doesnt treat acne for me, i broke out. What was your acne experience with this?
Style Chicks says
Sorry to hear about your poor CBD acne experience, Gwen. CBD should help acne, I am wondering about the other ingredients in the CBD you used.
I had a cystic acne blemish and a few surface level sebum plugs that were red. I found it reduced the inflammation and they kind of dissipated after that. I like that it doesn’t leave skin dry and irritated like the acne products I used as a teenager.
And you only need a tiny bit so it lasts forever,
Helena says
Love the ingredient combo. Royal jelly is awesome for aging skin.
Style Chicks says
We agree Helena!
Holly says
â¤ï¸ cbd!!
Style Chicks says
Us too, Holly!
Tina Larocque says
A loved one gave me the Skin Cream to soothe my skin affected by poison ivy. Since it has colloidal oatmeal, it reduced the itch and helped my skin feel cool and hydrated. Wonderful! Love the fragrance too!
Style Chicks says
Thanks for sharing your experience!
I didn’t even *think* about trying it on poison ivy! What a great idea! The colloidal oatmeal and other soothing ingredients in Le Vesque would work perfectly, especially for more delicate skin areas.
Thanks for the great tip, Tina!
