Cannabidiol (CBD) is a naturally derived substance used in products, such as oils and edibles which have been thought to aid in relaxation. Unlike THC (the major active ingredient in marijuana), CBD is a non-addictive substance found in hemp, that won’t get you high.

Cannabigerol (CBG) is an organic compound from the same family as CBD, extracted from the plant using the same process. Just like CBD, it binds to already existing cannabinoid receptors in the human body.

Hemp and marijuana are both varieties of cannabis, but their morphology, chemical makeup, and usages are very different. Cannabinoids (derived from hemp) are now globally recognised and accepted in multiple industries including; food & drink, wellness and cosmetics sectors. CBD and CBG are derived from the hemp plant, not marijuana.

Our CBD and CBG work best when added to foods and ingredients once they have been cooked and are cooling. Alternatively, you can add to ingredients that aren't cooked such as, buttercream, salad dressing, condiments or smoothies.

It's important to check with your employer, as rules around the consumption of CBD and CBG can vary.

Whilst everyone reacts differently to cannabinoids, both CBD and CBG are non-psychoactive. Meaning they won't alter your state of mind. If you're unsure, try consuming them in a scenario where it's safe or suitable to feel tired.

Each of our products have been created 'flavour-free', so that you can add CBD or CBG to your food and drink without compromising on original flavour.

That's a question for your GP. Please seek medical advice before using CBD or CBG.

In the dosages we recommend, the amount of oil used, shouldn't affect your skins oil content. When using our products for the first time, begin with a small area of skin to make sure you're satisfied with the result.

Our products are oil based, mixing them with anything water-based will result in some separation. This can be avoided by shaking or mixing well when combining.

We’d suggest using CBD for a week or more before deciding if it’s for you, as CBD and CBG build in the system over time. BMI, metabolism, frequency, strength and dosage play a huge part in how CBD affects an individual.

This of course varies, dependent on the individual. It can take up to two weeks before seeing effects after first-time use. After this introductory period, you should start to see effects sooner, as the body becomes accustomed to consumption.

AddCBD products work very well with multiple make-up applications. Our only recommendation would be to avoid adding this product to anything powder-based. AddCBD is an oil-based product, turning a powder into a paste, spoiling the powder itself.

AddCBD may stain or mark cloth materials such as, t-shirts and tea towels. You should be able to remove these marks or stains with normal washing.

Using CBD and CBG in foods is the fastest way for the body to absorb cannabinoids. However, if you have an area of the body you'd like to target specifically, our cosmetic versions might be the best option for you.

Mixing our products with oil-free cosmetics will mean they are no longer oil-free due to AddCBD's oil content. If you prefer to keep your cosmetics oil-free, we would recommend you avoid doing this.

Our CBD and CBG are sourced naturally from the hemp plant and won't appear on a 10-panel drugs test in the UK. It's important to seek advice before taking CBD or CBG, as test types may vary.

You may experience some seperation between CBD oil and alcohol however, this isn't cause for concern. You are still able to consume in the same way as normal, while reaping all benefits associated with CBD/CBG.

Start with the lowest measure, increasing daily until you achieve a dosage that works best for you. If using our food enhancer, we recommend you do not exceed 70mg per day, in line with FSA guidelines.
