In Switzerland, CBD oils and balms sold as cosmetics follow the Cosmetics Ordinance. Their packaging must show the intended use, the list of ingredients, durability, the batch number and the responsible person. Here is how to read this information, and what a cosmetic label is not allowed to say. On this page Why a CBD […]
A CBD product is used according to the category under which it is sold. An oil declared as a cosmetic is applied to the skin, a flower or a piece of hash is a product for smoking, and a cartridge or an e-liquid is vaporised in a device designed for it. The packaging and the […]
Switzerland is preparing a law to regulate cannabis for non-medical use. The bill is moving slowly, and it regularly makes the news. What does it plan, where does it stand, and what does it change for CBD? The answer to the last question is simple: nothing, according to the text itself. Here is the situation […]
A CBD product that is legal in Switzerland is not necessarily legal elsewhere, and a legal product is not free of THC. Both points matter as soon as you cross a border or get behind the wheel. Here is what the rules say, and why the 1% threshold is not enough to answer. On this […]

In Switzerland, everyone knows the figure: below 1% THC, hemp is not a narcotic. But 1% of what, measured on what, and proven how? The rule covers the plant, the product and even the material the product is made from. It speaks of “total” THC and of “average” content. Here is exactly what the limit […]

Our range relies on three carriers: coconut MCT, hemp seed oil and olive oil. Here is what each one actually […]
