Topicals

Topicals are cannabis you wear rather than consume — balms, lotions, salves, bath soaks and patches infused with THC, CBD or both, applied directly to skin. Here's the part that surprises people: standard topicals are non-intoxicating. Cannabinoids applied to skin interact locally without reaching the bloodstream in meaningful amounts, which is why topicals are the one cannabis product you can use before work without a second thought.

The exception is transdermal products — patches and gels engineered to push cannabinoids through the skin into circulation. Those *can* be intoxicating and behave more like a slow-release edible, so check the label: "topical" and "transdermal" are different promises. Most of the shelf is ratio-based (1:1 and 3:1 THC:CBD are common), often blended with familiar ingredients like menthol or arnica.

People typically reach for topicals as part of post-workout and recovery routines, massage, and skin care — applied generously to the targeted area and reapplied as needed, since nothing is being ingested. Around Los Angeles, expect $6–$135 depending on size and potency. As with everything on Weedyy, check the certificate of analysis on the listing so you know exactly what's in the jar.
