The Best CBD Creams

The 10 Best CBD Creams in 2022

When it comes to CBD, one of the easiest ways that I have found to find quality products, is quite literally just searching “The Best CBD [insert product here]”, and when talking with us on the phone we often verbally go through the list of our best and favorite products. I thought it was about time that I sat down and wrote down what I tell customers in the store and on the phone all the time: what the best CBD creams are as of this year.

Because I struggle so much with chronic pain and inflammation, CBD creams, salves, and other topicals are an essential part of how I function as a person. If you struggle with pain too, you know that sometimes it can be extremely hard to just be a person with a good quality of life. However, not every CBD cream is the best CBD cream for every person and sometimes, topicals aren’t the right fit at all. That’s why I thought a list of 10 of my favorites was a good fit to allow you to pick from many options and based on my personal experiences. So here it goes – my own personal top 10.

The GWL Best CBD Creams

Our Criteria For This List

How did these creams, salves, and roll-ons make the list? I have used them for my own personal pain and ranked the topicals in order of the relief I found. I also took into account the cost, product variations, and the relief that customers have told me that they did, or did not, find when using all of our topicals. These are the CBD creams that I find myself reaching for the most, buying the most, and complaining when I run out of the most.

These are our top selling products in both our retail store and online with brands that are our most popular, even outside of topicals. We have carried each of these products for years, have had working relationships with the brands for years, and trust both the quality of the products and the relief offered to our customers. These are by far the best CBD pain relief creams I have used, and we try products that we don’t carry all the time. I am constantly on the hunt for better products, and this solid list of 10 lab tested, quality products have never disappointed me.

#1 Brand: Endoca

There are so many great reasons to choose Endoca for your CBD oil needs. Endoca products are 100% certified organic.

#7 Brand: Papa & Barkley

Papa & Barkley was founded in 2015 by Adam Grossman and Guy Rocourt. The story behind Papa & Barkley is an incredible one. Adam’s father had been struggling with immobilizing back pain. He was forced to be placed in hospice care and was told that if he wasn’t able to get out of bed in the next week that he probably wouldn’t survive. Out of desperation, Adam bought $500 worth of marijuana and a crock pot and cooked up his own pain balm. Adam rubbed the balm on his father’s back and his father was able to get out of bed and get out of hospice. It was an amazing recovery considering most patients don’t end up leaving hospice. Papa & Barkly is named after Adam’s father and their family pit bull Barkley (whom Adam’s father had a strong connection with).

When you buy a Papa & Barkley CBD product, you’re buying from an established, trusted brand. Papa & Barkley has been producing quality CBD products for over five years. All Papa & Barkley products are developed with hemp grown right here in the US. Papa & Barkley CBD products are also independently lab tested to ensure safety and consistency. All Papa & Barkley CBD products are full spectrum to give you the full benefits of the entourage effect.

#8 Brand: Empower

Empower BodyCare began as a woman on a mission to help her mom manage pain way back in 2004. It was well before hemp or CBD were household names, but the founder of Empower Bodycare was convinced of the plant’s power to help people reduce discomfort and lead more enjoyable lives. Empower BodyCare remains a leader in the CBD topicals world, setting standards for transparency and quality. The CBD in all Empower products are extracted and cultivated using organic practices and a proprietary blend of the highest quality essential oils, including that Lemon Verbena that we alluded to earlier.

Here at Green Wellness Life, we’re excited to have partnered with them for years!
