FAQs about Our Hemp Collection

What’s the difference between hemp seed oil and CBD oil?

The key difference between hemp seed oil and CBD oil is what part of the plant they come from. Hemp seed oil (pressed from the seeds) is packed with nutrients but contains no CBD. CBD oil is extracted from the flowers and leaves, and contains cannabidiol, which may support sleep and calm. So, hemp seed oil is brilliant in cooking or skincare, while CBD oil is more about wellbeing. Think olive oil vs herbal remedy - both useful, just in different ways.

Which are the most reliable full-spectrum CBD oils?

The most reliable full-spectrum CBD oils are third-party tested, fully traceable, and made using CO2 extraction for purity and safety. Look out for clear lab reports and consistent CBD content. Full-spectrum means they contain a mix of cannabinoids and terpenes, which may work better together - that’s the so-called “entourage effect.” We only stock oils that meet strict quality checks and come from transparent, well-reviewed brands. Have a peek at how we research our products if you're curious.

How should I store CBD oil to keep it fresh and effective?

To keep CBD oil fresh and effective, store it somewhere cool, dark, and dry - like a cupboard, not a sunny windowsill. Heat and light can weaken CBD over time, so a fridge works in warmer months. Make sure the lid is firmly on, to prevent exposure to air (oxidation, if you’re fancy). A good oil will last 12 to 24 months and stay stable if looked after. Odd smells or colour changes? Probably time for a new one. More storage tips live in our Product Care and Repair hub.

What does CBD oil taste like and can I mix it with food?

CBD oil has a fairly earthy taste - think freshly mown grass meets olive oil. Not unpleasant, but distinctive. Thankfully, yes, you can mix it with food to soften the flavour. Adding a few drops to a smoothie, yoghurt or juice works well. Just don’t cook it or mix it into piping hot tea, as heat can reduce its strength. Cold and casual is the way forward.

Is hemp or CBD oil better for easing anxiety naturally?

For easing anxiety naturally, CBD oil is more promising than hemp seed oil. CBD interacts with receptors linked to mood and stress, while hemp seed oil - rich in omega fats - is better for general nutrition. So if you’re after a calming lift, a well-made CBD oil is the stronger choice. Make sure it’s lab-tested and clearly labelled. There’s a reason our Hemp Collection sticks to trusted, science-backed brands.

Can I travel with CBD oil in the UK or abroad?

In the UK, you can travel with CBD oil if it contains under 0.2% THC and comes from approved hemp strains. Keep it in its original packaging and bring proof of contents - lab results can be handy. Abroad, the rules are a mixed bag. Some countries welcome it, others treat it like contraband. Best to check with the airline and the destination country’s embassy well in advance. Otherwise you might get a bit more excitement at customs than you bargained for.

What strength CBD oil should I start with for sleep or stress support?

If you're new to CBD oil for sleep or stress support, it's wise to begin with a low to medium strength - around 5–10% CBD. Start small (10–20 mg per day), then see how it suits you over a week or so. The effects can build up gradually, so patience pays off. Stick to brands that offer proper lab testing and dosage guidance. And if you're on existing medication or unsure, it’s always worth checking with your GP first.
