Relief at Your Fingertips
What Are Cannabis Topicals?
Cannabis topicals are lotions, balms, salves, and creams infused with cannabinoids like THC and CBD, designed to be applied directly to the skin. Unlike other forms of cannabis, topicals are non-intoxicating and work by interacting with local cannabinoid receptors to provide targeted relief—perfect for soothing sore muscles, calming inflammation, or supporting everyday skin health.
At Aunt Mary’s, we carry a carefully selected range of topicals crafted with clean, nourishing ingredients and reliable cannabinoid formulations. From cooling gels to moisturizing creams, our collection offers something for every body—whether you’re managing aches, caring for your skin, or just looking to unwind naturally.

About Cannabis Topicals
Cannabis topicals offer localized relief without any psychoactive effects. Key benefits include:
- Targeted relief for pain, inflammation, and soreness
- Non-intoxicating, even when made with THC
- Easy, mess-free application
- Great for skin support and post-workout recovery Topicals are ideal for those seeking therapeutic benefits of cannabis without ingesting or inhaling it.
Topicals are applied directly to the skin over the area where you want relief. Simply massage a small amount into clean, dry skin and let it absorb. There’s no need to rinse it off, and most products can be used multiple times per day as needed.
No—THC topicals do not get you high. Because they’re applied externally and don’t enter the bloodstream in significant amounts, they provide localized effects only. Even topicals with high levels of THC are non-intoxicating when used as directed.
Topicals are often used to manage:
- Muscle aches, joint pain, and arthritis
- Inflammation and stiffness
- Skin issues like dryness, itching, or irritation
- Recovery after workouts or injury
Some formulations may also promote relaxation through soothing scents and natural ingredients.
- THC topicals are best for deep relief from pain and inflammation.

Most users feel relief within 10–30 minutes of application, though it can vary based on the product and the issue being treated. Some formulas are fast-acting while others offer more gradual, long-lasting effects.
Topical effects typically last between 2 and 6 hours, depending on the product type, the cannabinoids used, and your individual response. Reapplication is safe and often recommended for ongoing relief.
Yes—most cannabis topicals are safe for daily or even multiple-times-per-day use. Many people incorporate them into their wellness or skincare routines to manage chronic pain, stress, or dry skin.
It’s highly unlikely. Since topicals aren’t absorbed into the bloodstream in significant amounts, they typically do not trigger positive drug test results. However, transdermal patches (which are different) may be absorbed systemically and could show up.
Store your topicals in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or excessive heat. Keep the container sealed tightly to maintain freshness and potency. Most products have a shelf life of 12 to 24 months.

- Use Consistently – Topicals can be used daily or as needed. Regular application may help with chronic issues like joint pain or inflammation.
