How Lavender Enhances Rosemary, CBD and CBG in Our Products
Last Updated: November 8, 2026
Quick Summary
How Lavender Enhances Rosemary, CBD and CBG in Our Products comes down to aroma and usability: a 2007 PubMed-indexed study found smelling lavender and rosemary together increased free-radical-scavenging activity and lowered cortisol, while lavender makes CBD and CBG blends pleasant to use. Lavender does not boost the cannabinoids themselves; the 2024 topical review examined CBD and CBG safety only.
Lavender is the calming base of every Bayer Farms formula.
The 2007 study reported no effect sizes, so we treat it as a signal rather than proof.
Harvard Health notes CBG is marketed for anxiety, pain, infection and inflammation with thin evidence.
The 2024 review does not establish that lavender boosts CBD or CBG.
Extra Strength Lavender Super Pain Cream combines lavender with 6000mg of CBD and CBG.

Lavender Uses and Benefits: The Calming Base of Every Formula
Lavender is the calming base of every Bayer Farms formula, and understanding how lavender enhances rosemary, CBD and CBG in our products starts with what the plant actually does. A 2007 study indexed in PubMed's lavender and rosemary aroma research reported that smelling the two herbs together increased free-radical-scavenging activity and lowered cortisol. That is a real finding, though the published result gives no effect sizes, so we treat it as a signal rather than proof.

CBD and CBG Together: Why Lavender CBD Products Round Out the Blend
CBD and CBG are two different cannabinoids from hemp, and lavender CBD products use the herb to round out what the cannabinoids bring. CBD is the better-known of the two. CBG, or cannabigerol, is far less studied, and Harvard Health's review of the minor cannabinoids notes that CBG is marketed for anxiety, pain, infection and inflammation while the evidence for those claims is thin. We would rather say that plainly than oversell it.
The FDA has also said it is still working through questions about the science, safety and quality of cannabis-derived products, per the FDA's consumer guidance on cannabis and CBD. That is one reason we keep our labels clear about what is in each product.
Where lavender fits is the sensory side. A 2024 review in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences on topical CBD and CBG examined the safety profile of both cannabinoids in topical use. It does not establish that lavender boosts either one. What lavender does is make the blend pleasant to use, and a product you actually reach for is a product that gets used.
Our Extra Strength Lavender Super Pain Cream combines lavender with 6000mg of CBD and CBG.
Here is how the two cannabinoids compare and where lavender fits in our blends.
Item | What the article says | Note |
CBD | The better-known of the two cannabinoids | Comes from hemp |
CBG (cannabigerol) | Far less studied than CBD | Marketed for anxiety, pain, infection, inflammation |
Evidence for CBG claims | Thin, per Harvard Health review | We say so plainly rather than oversell |
FDA position | Still working through science, safety, quality questions | Reason labels stay clear |
2024 topical review | Examined safety profile of CBD and CBG | Does not establish lavender boosts either |
Lavender's role | Makes the blend pleasant to use | A product you reach for gets used |
Extra Strength Lavender Super Pain Cream | Combines lavender with 6000mg of CBD and CBG | One of our products |
Blending herbs and cannabinoids well takes restraint, and most products get it wrong by leaning on one ingredient and treating the rest as filler. We build every formula the other way, starting with lavender and pairing it only where the combination earns its place. Shop our small-batch lavender products and see how the blends come together, with clear labels and ingredients we are happy to explain.
Frequently Asked Questions
What happens when you combine CBD and CBG?
CBD and CBG are two cannabinoids from hemp, and early research looks at how they behave together in topical and wellness formulas. A 2024 review in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences examined CBD and CBG safety in topical applications, but the supplied result does not establish that one boosts the other. In our products, lavender is added for aroma and sensory balance, not as a proven way to increase cannabinoid effects. Individual response varies, so start with one product and follow the label.
How does lavender complement rosemary?
Lavender brings a soft floral note while rosemary adds a green, herbal lift, which is why the two appear together in aromatherapy and home fragrance.
Why pair lavender with CBD in topical products?
Lavender is included in our lavender CBD products for its aroma. The FDA has said it is still working to answer questions about the science, safety, and quality of cannabis and CBD products, and the supplied research does not show that lavender improves CBD absorption. Check the ingredient label, patch test first, and ask your doctor before combining CBD with medications.
