About CBD Life: The People Behind the Brand
CBD Life is a family-run business established in 2016. The brand professes their positive experience of using CBD inspired them to create a trusted yet affordable CBD brand in the UK. In fact, they are a founding and current board member of the Cannabis Trade Association (CTA). This is an association based in the UK and EU that promotes good manufacturing practices and offers an educational resource for CBD.
Do CBD Life Conduct Third-Party Lab-testing?
CBD Life does collaborate with third-party laboratories, such as Eurofins, to test their vast array of products. The certificates of analysis (COA) are available on every product description, so customers can check as they are browsing. However, the COA’s only appear to test for cannabinoid content. While it’s great that customers can see THC levels, it would be beneficial to supply information on terpenes, and pesticide and herbicide use.
Does CBD Life Accept Product Returns?
We weren’t overly impressed with the return policy of CBD Life. They claim that all return claims must be made within five days of receiving the product (other brands are 30 days or more). Additionally, they state that the return of goods will not be accepted unless the seller (i.e., CBD Life) has had the “opportunity of considering the Buyer’s reasons for returning the goods, and to accept the return thereof”. Not to mention that their written return policy is hardly customer-friendly.
CBD Life’s Manufacturing Methods: CO2 Extraction
Solvent-free CO2 extraction is considered the best contemporary method of extracting CBD oil from raw hemp plants. During our CBD Life UK review, we learned that the firm utilizes only the most reliable form of CO2 extraction currently available. However, despite mentioning raw hemp material, it’s unclear where they obtain their raw hemp plants and where the CBD extraction actually occurs.
Ingredient Lists, Price, and More
CBD Life offers both full-spectrum and broad-spectrum products, although they prefer the terminology “raw” and “refined” retrospectively. They also sell isolate products like their CBD bath bombs. CBD Life does a great job at providing customers clear product descriptions that show CBD quantity, product volume, and ingredient lists. They also state how much each mg of CBD costs in pounds, which is informative. It’s encouraging to see lots of useful information on each product.
CBD Life Review: Highlights
Here are five highlights that have made CBD Life a well-regarded and internationally-recognized CBD brand.
- Founding member of the CTA. CBD Life is one of the seven founding members of the CTA. This tells us the company knows the industry inside and out and only offers safe, effective, and reliable products.
- Featured in highly-regarded publications. From The Guardian to National Geographic, CBD Life has been highlighted in several prominent publications.
- Offer quality CBD oil vapes. CBD Life is one of the few companies that offer online CBD vape oil in the UK. Not only do they sell e-liquids but vape kits and cartridges too.
- Affordable prices and fast, global shipping. CBD Life is one of the few UK firms we know of that actually offers worldwide shipping. For those who buy CBD oil, UK residents will receive the fastest shipping, but it is good to know that the products are available for shipment to many other countries.
- Wide range of products. Many companies who offer CBD in the UK only sell the standard oral drops, but CBD Life offers a full-range selection, including vape liquids, dabs, and even CBD edibles.
Negative Thoughts
One issue we have with CBD Life is their lack of transparency, despite their goal of being “fundamentally transparent”. For instance, they claim to be a family-run business, but the website’s clinical style and sparse information make this feel inauthentic. Additionally, they give minimal information about sourcing or growing raw hemp extract. While undoubtedly they provide premium products given their CTA status, a splash of personality wouldn’t go amiss.
Where to Buy CBD Life
CBD Life products can be bought directly on their site. One of our favorite things about the brand is that they offer fast and reliable shipping. They ship to locations throughout the United Kingdom using Royal Mail and to other parts of the world as well, making their products very accessible. Although, international shipping costs may be a tear-jerker.

CBD Life Review: Final Thoughts
All in all, we would recommend this brand on two fronts. 1) for those who are looking for a quality, reliable, and affordable CBD for sale in the UK. 2) for those who want fast global shipping to the United Kingdom and other parts of the world.
We also appreciate that CBD Life UK is one of the founding members of the all-important Cannabis Trades Association.
Our general consensus is that CBD Life is a good, reliable, high-quality company, but we think they need to improve the transparency on their website.
