Choosing The Best CBD products For Your Needs

From skin issues to stress relief, CBD is hugely popular now as a natural and highly effective solution for a wide range of conditions.

There are a lot of CBD brands and products to choose from and it can be rather bewildering to know which ones to opt for. When it comes to oral drops, experts recommend starting with lower dose products and seeing how you feel and if they have the calming effect you wish for.. and, if, after a few weeks you’re finding you need a little more help, opt for the next highest dose and so on. Those experienced in using CBD can of course select the higher doses they are comfortable with.

Skincare-wise, choosing products with a high level of CBD is sensible. But also look for those with ingredients which as as natural as possible.

Here are some of the KCR’s beauty & health team’s favourite brands and products:

Cannabotech

Cannabotech is a super-innovative biomedical company focused on the benefits of cannabinoids and medicinal mushrooms. They pioneer marrying traditional Asian knowledge with modern science to create their proprietary, patent-pending M²CBD formula, a synergy blend of functional mushrooms and high-quality cannabidiol (CBD). They enhance their formulas further with complementary evidence-based botanicals and minerals so you can get the premium support you need.

Their products have been designed to help you take control of common health concerns including stress, sleep, immunity, muscle and joint fatigue, skin health, and other conditions associated with the modern lifestyle. To help the immune system the Immunity drops retail for £59 featuring 500mg of CBD as well as immune-boosting mushrooms and 100mg of zinc.

Pure Sport

This excellent wellness brand was founded by rugby player and athlete Grayson Hart, who discovered the amazing effects of CBD when researching for pain relief for injuries he sustained on the pitch. Grayson and Glasgow Warriors teammate Adam Ashe decided to try to create the world’s most trusted and effective CBD products, and be a brand that really helps build a community to raise awareness of the benefits of CBD and other natural alternatives to reduce pain and aid with stress relief and conditions like insomnia.

They now have a wide product range to choose from including gift sets and bundles, oils, balms and capsules containing potent and highly effective combinations of CBD, Nootropics and vitamins/minerals and essential oils. We’re major fans of their Unwind range in particular. Pure Sport Unwind oil has been designed to reduce anxiousness and promote better sleep. It contains 1500mg of CBD, lavender and Vitamin B complex and is priced at £80. Pure Sport also offers the Female Balance range to to help women with pre-menstrual issues and also assist those experiencing menopause (£30).

Love Hemp

Highly respected CBD brand Love Hemp offers a fantastic high quality CBD based range including oils, edibles, skincare and capsules. We particularly love the CBD jelly domes which are not only effective, but taste as delicious – you’d never know they weren’t ‘normal’ sweetshop jellies (£29.99), and the Valencia Orange CBD drops starting at just £14.99. They now do Wild Cherry flavour too! We appreciate the fact they offer a wide range of CBD strengths across their range too – from mild 300mg perfect for those new to CBD, right up to potent super strong 6000mg – ideal for when you need extra support for issues like really effective pain relief. Visit their website for full details. Love Hemp

Another excellent brand is Provacan CBD.

Zoetic

This Colorado, USA founded brand is a KCR team firm favourite. Zoetic’s mission is about much more than just building a CBD brand – they strive to find new ways to protect the planet, elevate wellbeing, and bring a little more rest and relaxation to our often chaotic and stressful world. Their product range includes skincare, oils and gummies. Zoetic products not only smell incredible but are highly effective too. We adore their Jasmine and Lavender CBD Night Cream (£60), CBD Infused Anti-Fatigue Facial Serum (£70) and Lemon Grass & Ylang Ylang Hand Cream (£25). Plus the CBD-Infused Anti-Fatigue Eye Gel which works to refresh and rejuvenate the under eyes (£30). For full details visit Zoetic

Unique CBD

Highly respected brand Unique CBD offers a premium CBD collection with high concentrate extracts. Every product is produced in their ISO 9001 class clean laboratory and is CO2 extracted. In addition, all of their products have received third-party lab testing by Eurofins, one of the world’s leading testing facilities, and come with a certificate of analysis so their customers can be sure they are getting honest, high-quality premium CBD products. A favourite of ours is the peppermint flavour night drops with 2000mg of CBD at £135. To learn more about the brand and product range visit Unique CBD.

Potyque

Making Potyque’s finest CBD begins with first-class biodynamically grown hemp produced in Italy, then the real magic happens during their innovative extraction and purification process. Potyque uses only green chemicals and food-based solvents to extract the highest grade CBD which forms the basis of the entire product range. The Potyque CBD 5% oil is formulated with the lightest blend of CBD which is perfect for initial use. It’s recommended to take 2-3 drops 3 times a day (£50). The line also features the excellent Calming Cream (£56) which eases inflammatory skin conditions.

If you’re new to CBD it’s really worth considering their Titration Pack (£200). This was developed after numerous conversations about what would most help people find their right strength. The recommendation with CBD is to start low and go slow, starting from 5% then progressing to 10% and onward, if required. Titration is simply the process of adjusting the dose for maximum benefit without any unwanted side effects. When you do find your right strength, it’s easy to use any remaining strengths by simply adjusting the number of drops to achieve the same dose; for example, 10% is twice the strength of 5% and would simply require half the number of drops to achieve the same dose as the lower strength. Visit Potyque for more information.

Cannaray CBD range

Cannaray has the belief that, when you fuse nature with innovative science, you can unleash the full power of CBD – so, that’s exactly what they did. They sourced the highest quality hemp, harnessed new, cutting-edge technology, and poured their passion into the CBD oils, CBD capsules and CBD topicals they offer today. This pioneering and innovative brand offers an extensive CBD range from the Bright Days oil drops (£26.16) and gummies (£18) to muscle soothing salves. If you have trouble sleeping do try the Night Time CBD drops with 1800mg of CBD at £36. Visit Cannaray for further info.

The Good Level CBD

The founders Joe and Jonny of his excellent CBD brand went to great lengths to ensure the quality and purity of their products, so they built a close relationship with a farmer in Somerset to know exactly how their hemp is produced, from start to finish.

The Good Level now offers a super range of quality assured CBD products to suit a host of health and wellbeing needs. We are fans of their 600mg CBD Jelly Dots gummies (£35), and potent 20% 6000mg CBD drops (£120). For those new to CBD it’s easy to discover which dose to start with as they label their CBD oil range from Level 1 through to 3. For further information visit The Good Level.

Mindful Extracts CBD Oil

Another favourite CBD brand is Mindful Extracts. The company was born because although the market was packed with CBD brands, none of them seemed to have a genuine, holistic focus on wellbeing. This is why alongside all of their CBD products, you’ll find guided meditations, articles and exclusive insights from mindfulness experts – all designed to guide you on your path to wellness.

They offer a great range of CBD oils, supplements, skincare and gifts including a 5% full spectrum CBD oil which helps to regulate neuro – hormones to support overall wellness (£36.99) and lovely bath bombs (from £22.49). Visit Mindful Extracts for full information.

George and Mae

George & Mae came about whilst founder Lucy was investigating natural supplements to help her mum. She discovered the enormous benefits of CBD and become intrigued, and wanted to address some of the issues – such as the challenges of finding CBD oil from trusted sources, and a way to make improve the taste. (if you’ve not tried CBD before, some can be slightly bitter and have a not so pleasant after taste). So, Lucy searched the world for the most palatable and highest quality product she could find, from suppliers she could trust and George & Mae was born.

The range offers gummies, salves and delicious tasting oils in Mint, Orange and Lemon. You can choose from differing strengths of CBD from 250mg upwards – the highest being1000mg at £49.99. Visit George & Mae for further information.
