An Introduction To CBDLife UK
CBDLife UK is a well-known CBD company based in London that has already been around for several years. The company has built its name upon a reputation for some of the most stringent manufacturing and testing practices in an industry that often lags behind in this area.
CBDLife UK is a founding member of the Cannabis Trade Association, a cannabis lobbying group that claims to promote good practice and transparency in the industry.
The company’s CBD oil is its standard CBD offering, much like most other brands out there, and the company sticks to producing high-quality CBD in a limited range of flavours rather than doing anything too drastic or novel to differentiate itself.
Having said that CBDLife UK sells full spectrum and broad spectrum CBD oils with a large number of cannabinoids present to maximise the impact of the entourage effect. Many UK businesses have been forced to change their product ranges to feature largely CBD Isolate products so its good for the consumer that CBDLife UK still offer multi-cannabinoid products. For how much longer remains to be seen but this is a massive plus point for the company in our eyes at the moment.
CBDLife UK definitely positions itself as a great option for CBD lovers, with its new range of CBD dab products an excellent addition for those that want to get the most concentrated form of CBD. The vape pen kits are a particular favourite of ours due to their ease of use, high concentration and sleek design.
Customer Service
In our experience, CBDLife UK’s customer service has been exemplary. We have received our products within one or two days of placing an order and were refunded with no issue when a cartridge was damaged in transit.
However, there is a considerable reduction in the number of cannabinoids available in the broad-spectrum version, aside from just the advertised THC. We will discuss this in more detail later in this review.
CBDLife UK also offers a water-soluble version of the 400mg/10ml full-spectrum bottle dubbed “Aqua Drops,” which can be added and dissolved in liquids for an alternative ingestion method.
CBDLife UK doesn’t just stick to CBD oil, however, they have a wide-ranging product offering across a number of different CBD product categories, including capsules, refillable vapes, disposable vape cartridges and even dabs and concentrates for more experienced CBD users.
Product Offering
CBDLife UK offers a wide range of products, from oil to e-liquid to CBD capsules in both broad and full spectrum. Here are some of our top picks:
CBD Oil
CBDLife UK’s CBD Oils come in three main variants, each with its own pros and cons. The refined and raw hemp extract oils can all be bought with an optional spray top for 50p, a nice touch.
Raw Hemp Extract CBD Oils
CBDLife UK’s standard offering: a no-nonsense full spectrum CBD oil available in concentrations of 500, 1,000 and 2,000mg. These oils are packed full of cannabinoids and terpenes to maximise the potential entourage effect and provide consumers with the most impactful experience possible. The raw hemp extract oil is available in natural hemp or peppermint flavours.
Refined Hemp Extract CBD Oils
The refined hemp extract oil is is THC-free but still packed with cannabinoids, just none of the ones associated with “getting you high!” That’s not to say that the raw hemp extract will, it’s just that for those cautious and not wanting any THC in their CBD this is a good option to go for. In addition, the refined hemp extract is a lighter colour and is a less hempy flavour than its raw hemp counterpart.
CBDLife Aqua Drops
A water-soluble full-spectrum offering which can be added and stirred into a drink. Bioavailability is also claimed to be higher, meaning that more of the CBD is absorbed into your bloodstream. However, water-soluble CBD has not been proven to have a higher bioavailability as we await more research into this topic.
CBD Vapes
CO2 Extract 40% CBD PureCart Cartridges
All you need to start taking CBD, and in one of the most efficient ways to boot. The CBDLife UK 40% Vape Pen Kit is good to go straight out of the box, and if you already have a 510 thread vape, then you need only buy the cartridge. There is 200mg of CBD packed in this high-powered offering.
For the full cannabinoid analysis, you can view the the lab report here. Cartridges are now available in the following blends:
- Grand Daddy Purple
- Pineapple Express
- Strawnana
- Super Lemon Haze

CBD E-liquid
Bottled broad spectrum CBD e-liquid which you can put in your favourite vape, just like you would regular vape liquid. Available in 1% or 2% concentrations.
CBD Hemp Oil Capsules
Edible capsules containing the same full spectrum CBD hemp extract as the full spectrum CBD drops in an easy-to-use administrative method.
Overall Impressions
Look and Feel
The products produced by CBDLife UK seem to be of a high-quality, with sturdy bottles and caps.
The labeling and product design isn’t going to win any prizes, but CBDLife does what it set out to do – providing its customers durable products with no frills.
CBD Delivery
While the broad spectrum and aqua drops are available in the standard pipette bottles with a rubber top to draw in and release the oil, the full spectrum products come in a spray form which eases the delivery process slightly.
Flavour
It is obvious that CBDLife UK has not focused too heavily on producing great-tasting CBD Oil, possibly to not jeopardise the integrity of the extraction process.
The natural hemp flavour tastes just like you would expect – earthy and organic, the archetypal hempy taste. Most people don’t have an issue with it, you only hold it under your tongue for a minute or so in any case.
However, for those that really don’t like the taste, CBDLife UK offers their full spectrum oils in lemon or peppermint to try and mask the natural taste.
CBDLife UK’s CBD
Spectrum Type and Concentration
As mentioned previously, CBDLife UK’s CBD oils come in three different variations: raw extract, refined extract and the aqua drop variety. The company also has different cannabinoid profiles in its vape liquids.
You can tell the organic nature of CBDLife UK’s CBD as demonstrated in the lab reports in the following section. This makes for CBD products that pack a punch and offer real variety in experience, especially with the varied terpene blends available
We are massive fans of CBDLife UK’s CBD having analysed the cannabinoid profiles and poured over the lab reports. These products provide an authentic hemp experience and are as effective as near enough any other CBD product available in the UK right now. The CBDLife UK 40% Vape Pen Kit is a particular highlight given the audaciously high concentrations of CBD packed into the oil. If you sometimes feel unsure as to whether the CBD is affecting you, we would wholely recommend trying out the vape pen kit.
Other Ingredients
CBDLife’s choice in a carrier oil, the coconut-derived MCT (Medium-Chained Triglycerides) oil, is also widely considered to be the best carrier of CBD given its high bioavailability – this means that a higher proportion of the CBD is processed by your body.
There are also a range of terpenes included in its blend which add to the flavour of the products and also are thought to contribute to the potency of the oils.

What’s The Verdict?
The oils produced by CBDLife UK do the basics well and don’t try to sell customers on a lie, unlike a lot of other CBD brands. They focus on providing high-quality CBD oil with an authentic flavour profile. The vape cartridges are available in several different terpene blends which create a different yet still natural flavour experience.
We are seriously impressed by the CBD that CBDLlife UK provides, which, when it comes down to it, is what really matters to most customers.
At a competitive price point and a range of different concentrations, it’s hard to go wrong from a consumer perspective with CBDLife UK.
