For the Sex Positive Who Likes It Organic
Try: Foria Intimacy Natural Lubricant with CBD, $44
Whether CBD serves as an actual aphrodisiac is still TBD, but nascent research supports the idea that our bodies' endocannabinoid system plays a part in female sexual functioning. Considering our own endocannabinoids are similar to plant cannabinoids like CBD, it's plausible that a CBD-laced lube could stoke sexual arousal. Will it work for you? It may just take a little experimentation to find out — and that's where this lube comes in. Comprised of just organic MTC coconut oil and organically-grown hemp extract, this lubricant strikes the perfect pleasure point for those who seek a little stimulation without synthetic and surfactant ingredients found in conventional formulas (like parabens and Nonoxynol-9, respectively).
For The Dog (or Cat) Lover
Try: Toast Woef, $28
Let's face it, pets have gotten many of us through quarantine. If your animal has been working overtime this year as man's best friend, consider offering a little zen: this tincture (a version of which is available for cats, too) was developed with vets for appropriate CBD dosing and is made with wild Alaskan salmon and flaxseed oils.
For Believers In Inside-Out Beauty

For those looking to see how CBD affects anxiety levels, sleep and more, a tincture may be the best bet. This one, (made of MTC coconut oil, broad spectrum hemp oil and orange essential oil) dispenses 25 mg of CBD per dropper. Add it to your morning coffee or afternoon meditation session.
For Seasoned CBD Tincture Taker

If someone in your life is already living that CBD tincture life, consider hooking them up with a stronger solution. This CBD oil contains 1200 mg per bottle and dispenses 40 mg of CBD per dropper. Plus, because it's water soluble, it can be added to any food or beverage.
For the Sporty Type With Muscle Tension
Try: Sagely Naturals Relief & Recovery Roll-On, $29.99
