Abstract: The present invention provides methods of extracting Cannabis plant material through use of aloe, compositions comprising the resulting Cannabis aloe extracts, methods of using the extracts to ameliorate skin conditions, and applicators for applying the extracts topically.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a self-cleaning nozzle comprises a nozzle body, a sleeve surrounding a proximal end of the nozzle body, a pillar disposed within the nozzle body and a spring. The nozzle body may have a hollow cylindrical interior. The nozzle body may include an orifice formed in a distal end of the nozzle body, a shoulder formed on a proximal end of the nozzle body, and a first bearing surface on an outer lateral face of the shoulder. The sleeve may include a second bearing surface on an inner face of the sleeve and a retaining lip formed at a distal end of the sleeve. The retaining lip may define a distal end of an annular space between the sleeve and the nozzle body. The shoulder may define a proximal end of the annular space. The pillar may have a distal tip configured to interface with the orifice, thereby forming a liquid seal. The spring may be captured within the annular space, thereby biasing the distal tip of the pillar into contact with the orifice.
