Which CBD Product Is Right For Me?

Posted by Shannon Ball on Jun 28th 2022

So you are interested in getting your first CBD product. But with so many options—oils, gummies, flower, topicals—which product to invest in can get confusing, so we’ve made it simple.

Topicals

Best Used For:

  • Arthritis
  • Post workout recovery
  • Post-surgery rehab
  • Inflamed joints
  • Sciatica 
  • Any isolated pain or ache

Topicals are lotions, creams, and salves infused with hemp extract. Similar to how Tiger Balm relieves achy joints and muscles, so too do CBD topicals provide pain relief. If you are a big time athlete or just sore from a surf, CBD topicals help ease all the aches and pains.

Plus, if you get your CBD from Koala Colony, our topicals contain coconut oil, shea butter, and beeswax with the hemp extract, which add an overall anti-inflammatory effect. Our topicals are infused with lemon and lavender essential oils too, so you can feel and smell great.

Gummies

Best Used For:

  • Relaxation
  • Inflammation
  • Post workout recovery
  • Hangovers
  • Social settings

Koala Colony gummies are the perfect treat to keep you calm on your busy days and relaxed on your off days. Keep a pack in your beach bag or backpack to share with friends and stay mellow all day long.

The upside of gummies is your dosage is already mapped out in a perfect little pocket of flavor! The difference between gummies and let’s say, tinctures, is that gummies (like anything you eat) must go through your digestive system. For this reason, it will take a bit longer for gummies to absorb into your body and for you to feel the calming effects.

Flower

Best Used For:

  • A THC alternative
  • Balancing the effects of THC
  • Relaxation

Want a fun beach activity? Grab a few friends and your Koala Colony flower and have all of the fun of passing around a joint with your pals without the high. CBD flower is great for relaxing and enjoying hemp in a more involved way (versus just popping a gummy).

If you want a mellow effect and enjoy smoking, flower is the way to go. Use your favorite pipe or get some pre-rolled joints and chill!

Oils (also known as tinctures)

Best Used For:

  • Sleep
  • Relaxation
  • Inflammation
  • Anxiety
  • Hangovers
  • Post workout

These liquids are infused with CBD. All you have to do is fill up the dropper to your desired dosage and squeeze a bit under your tongue. When taken sublingually, CBD is absorbed into your body faster giving you instant relief. An alternative use for your CBD oil is throwing a bit in your smoothie or cup of coffee.

Oils are great for pain management, getting a good night’s sleep, and stress. Keep your CBD on your nightstand and unwind out after a long day or put a bit in your smoothie to get your day started off right.
