Prima Review – R+R Cream, Advanced Recovery Soothing Rub

Brand Overview: Prima

Prima creates science-backed CBD products to help bring your self-care to a whole new level. The founders of the company emphasize their values, which mirror a kind of a disruptor philosophy prevalent in modern-day social movements that aim to shake up the status quo to make the world a better place. But instead of focusing on how to make the world a better place, the company focuses instead on making you, the individual, better.

Through its diverse line of CBD products for stress, sleep, recovery, and skin health, Prima wants to help you live the best life possible in a natural and non-addictive way.

The company proves its commitment to social and environmental change by donating 1% of their revenue, by remaining 100% carbon neutral and eco-friendly, and through its commitment to recycling. Prima also puts its employees first, with their excellent healthcare, equity leadership, and flexible working hours. Prima isn’t just a company I’d be proud to buy from, but I’d love to get a job there too.

I’m a big fan of CBD topicals, so I was excited to try Prima R+R Cream because I’ve found products that contain menthol, eucalyptus, and tea tree oil effective. I was immediately impressed by the cream’s packaging. It’s not only one of the prettiest CBD topicals, but it’s filled with useful information about the active ingredients. I was hoping this topical would help hydrate my skin and soothe the areas of my body that need extra attention like my hips, hands, low back, and feet.

After my morning shower, I massaged some of the cream into my low back, hips, feet, and hands. At night, I followed a similar routine right before bed with the hope that it would help me relax and get better rest. I used this product along with a prescribed medication Gabapentin, which I take for arthritis.
