Off Your Face Creams: Naturopathic Cannabis Skincare

I wrote Off Your Face Creams because, honestly, I couldn’t find the cannabis skincare book I needed. I’m a naturopath, a certified aromatherapist, and a professional cosmetic formulator. I also use cannabis to help manage my own pain. I just wanted a DIY skincare book that would fit with my holistic vibe. I wanted something that was based on solid science and would actually work. So, I figured, why not just create one myself?

Then along came COVID, and like many of us, I found myself stuck indoors with time on my hands and a head full of ideas. I just thought, “You know what? “I guess I’ll just go ahead and write the book myself.” And that’s exactly what I did.

This isn’t your average cannabis beauty guide that you can come across anywhere. “Off Your Face Creams” is an engaging look at cannabis-infused skincare, combining herbalism, formulation science, and personal experience. You’ll laugh, you’ll learn, and you’ll come away feeling completely empowered to create products that genuinely work.

This book is perfect for beginners in DIY beauty and those experienced with formulations who want to explore cannabinoids. Plus, it’s written by someone who’s been there and done that, not just someone who looked everything up online.

What’s Good About It?

Crammed with info: oils, butters, actives, essential oils, emulsifiers, and modern preservatives — all laid out clearly.
Whole section on cannabis prep: decarbing, infusing, dosage — no fluffy nonsense.
Well-balanced formulations: massage candle, joint gel, body lotion, hand cream, even cannabis suppositories (yes, really).
Funny and heartfelt — like chatting with your favourite queer herbalist over tea and a spliff.
Years of hands-on experience — no fuss, just great spa-quality cannabis skincare from a pro who knows their stuff when it comes to creating high-end spa products.

What’s Not So Great?

Some technical bits might feel a bit advanced if you’re completely new — but it’s easy to learn as you go.
You’ll need to source a few ingredients and tools not found in your average kitchen.
It’s not a “pretty coffee table book,” but a no-fluff, results-focused guide.
