At the start of my career in cannabis, long before I founded Kush Queen, I learned about the path to legalization in California and the shared history of the LGBTQIA+ community with cannabis.

From that moment on, I made it my mission to honor the Queer activists who came before us, the true OGs we can thank for providing us with safe access to this plant.

At Kush Queen, Pride is Honoring a Shared History

In the 1980s, Queer community leaders in San Fransisco ushered in the beginnings of legal cannabis as they worked to ease health and wellness struggles around the AIDS epidemic. Their real-life needs brought legitimacy to the medical cannabis conversation. Pictures of my Queer community heroes hang in my office; Cleve Jones, Dennis Peron, and Mary Jane Rathburn look over me as I run Kush Queen.

Also on my wall of heroes is Marsha P. Johnson, another great reminder of gay liberation and how we got here today. Her beautiful smile beams back at me as I write this

For those not familiar with her story, Johnson was a trans activist, self-identified drag queen, and a true survivor living in New York City. She was also one of the first protesters at the Stonewall riots in 1969. Many recall Johnson having thrown the first brick outside of the club, but the truth is no one really agrees on who or what started it (was it a brick? a bottle? or city cobblestone?).

Nonetheless, everyone does agree that Johnson and fellow trans activist Sylvia Rivera played a massive part in the spontaneous protest against a police raid in those early morning hours. This act of social uprising is often viewed as the first Pride celebration, sparking a series of events that would change the LGBTQIA+ community forever. 

Pride is Revolutionary and Non-Conforming

Pride (as we know it today) is all about Queer celebration and love, but its roots are steeped in the journey of equal rights, visibility, and the acceptance of LGBTQIA+ people. It was never about rainbow-tinted capitalism, fleeting social media icons, and albeit, even super fun parades. Pride is about Queer liberation. 

"Stonewall was, at its core, about people reclaiming their narratives from a society that told them they were sick or pitiful or didn’t even exist," writes Shane O’Neill, a journalist for the New York Times.

After Stonewall, a new generation of gay activists emerged and organized, creating resources like the Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries (STAR). These events and grassroots organizations focused on Queer individuals gaining access to equal rights as citizens while also helping the community find dignity, acceptance, and a sense of belonging within society. STAR, for example, provided housing and support to homeless LGBT youth and sex workers in New York City.

Pride is About Community and Peers Supporting Peers

For everyone at Kush Queen, Pride is about more than just a seasonal festivity, it’s about taking a stand, increasing visibility, and supporting our Queer communities all year round. 

This year Kush Queen is donating 20% of proceeds from our Pride Collection to The Social Impact Center, founded by beloved Queer cannabis hero Felicia Carbajal, as well as to the Trans Latina Coalition, a local Los Angeles community-led, and founded organization.

Kush Queen 2022 Pride Collection

Our Pride Collection for 2022 features a Delta 8 THC water-based and latex-safe infused lube and 1:1 Delta 8 THC and CBD Trans Flag-inspired bath bomb in honor of our trans brothers and sisters.

Queer Liberation is Still Needed

Currently, countless pieces of appalling legislation are moving through state governments as an attempt to target the rights of trans people, attack trans youth, and reverse decades-worth of progress. 

According to the advocacy group, Human Rights Campaign, over 300 anti-LGBTQ+ bills were proposed in 2022 alone.

Sam Ames, the director of advocacy and government affairs for The Trevor Project recently explained to CBS news "research has shown that as many as 85% of trans youth say that they are watching these debates over their identity play out,". Ames continues "the direct results of these bills when they pass are to take away things that we know are correlated with increased mental health and decreased suicide risk: sports team participation, seeing yourself represented in a classroom, being accepted by your parents and your healthcare professionals. These are all associated with significantly lower odds of attempting suicide." 

It feels like Queer liberation is more important than ever, especially with such blatantly coordinated attacks against people who identify as such. 

Pride is Personal

Inclusivity and visibility are part of Kush Queen’s DNA. From the all-gender restroom to the Queer individuals who appear in our content and work behind the scenes, Kush Queen's identity as a brand is unapologetically gay.

As I get choked up thinking about my own experiences and identity, I can’t help but think about what a personal intimate experience celebrating Pride is for me. As a human, I self-identify not only as the CEO of this company but as a Queer woman surrounded by countless other Queer people in my life. People who are my family, friends, and frankly, my inspirations. I think of my parents raising a Queer son in South Louisiana and not once did anything but accept him for who he was. 

Since its inception, Kush Queen has celebrated Pride (year-round) and has raised well over $40,000 for Queer organizations, something I'm incredibly proud of.

Quickly following the creation of our award-winning CBD bath bombs, the Kush Queen Soak & Toke was born thanks to some innovative team members at headquarters. 

At Kush Queen, we don’t just spend our time perfecting our handmade cannabinoid products; we also perfect their use in our own daily lives. This dynamic relationship with our CBD and THC products allows our team to create wellness offerings that can extend a deeper connection between our consumers and this plant. You might call this R & D; we call it our favorite part of the job! You might also be asking yourself, what is "soaking and toking"? And is it even for you?

Kush Queen Olivia Alexander enjoys a cannabis Soak and Toke

Take it from the experts, a relaxing combo of Kush Queen's ultra-premium, indoor-grown hemp flower, and infused bath bombs is an opulent example of self-care at its finest. But before we dive into the experience of a Soak & Toke, do you know where the term "toke" comes from? 

 

A Touch of 'Toke' History

Enter Alice B. Toklas. An American writer of the early 20th century, Toklas openly shared a recipe for hashish brownies in her memoir-style recipe book. That notorious recipe solidified Toklas in cannabis history and gave us the shorthand for toke

To Soak & Toke? Or Not to Soak & Toke? It's Really Not Even a Question... 

There's a myriad of reasons to smoke cannabis in a cannabis bath, aside from being luxurious af. Ultimately, your skin is your biggest organ, and you want to tend to it accordingly. The cannabis bath bomb is a full-body topical experience that has you fully covered (literally)

Kush Queen cannabinoid-infused bath bombs allow you to feel the entourage effect, a medley of healing properties from cannabinoids and terpenes working together. Plus, soaking in hot water allows your pores to open up and absorb the cannabis compounds and essential oils profoundly, creating a lush full-body experience.

But here's the thing, the cannabinoids in our bath bombs don't cross the blood-brain barrier because due to the molecule size - they are too big. Unlike our topical cannabinoid products labeled transdermal, which will cross the blood-brain barrier and have the possibility of delivering more mind than body effects. 

 

How to Bathe like Weed Royalty

Maybe you're looking to take your bath effects even higher. That's where another delivery system comes in. Sure, you could pop a gummy, but most edibles take longer to hit than your bath will take. By smoking a pre-roll while you soak, you get an instant delivery of cannabinoids, which is why smoking is often the most beloved and popular way of cannabis consumption. 

Kush Queen cannabis products for Soak & Toke

A soak and toke is an incredibly simple yet impactful ritual with cannabis. Let’s look into this deep mind and body practice that could elevate your next moment of self-care. 

The first step to a proper Kush Queen 'Soak & Toke' is choosing one of our handmade bath bombs to use. Our bath bombs include: Relax, Relive, Sleep, Love, Awaken, Black Magic, and Immunity

Draw your bath and add any additions you like, such as a bubble bath (make sure the scent pairs with the bath bomb), crystals, music, candlelight, or even a beverage.

Start smoking once submerged in the tub. Our newly released Kush Queen hemp flower is the perfect pairing with your Kush Queen infused-bath bomb. Kush Queen's cultivar options include Lemon Octane, Pink Panther, Hawaiian Haze, and Sour Space Candy, for a range of complex tasting notes and effects.

Soak for 40 minutes and light up between 10 to 15 minutes in your bath. 

 

Extra Tips from the Experts at Kush Queen

Kush Queen CEO Olivia Alexander enjoys the new line of ultra premium hemp flower in a Kush Queen bath

The key to a successful soak and toke is preparation. 

  1. Make sure you remove the bath bomb seal with scissors while your water runs. 
  2. Always check the temperature while you're waiting for your bath to fill. No one likes a tub that's too hot or too cold. 
  3. Prepare your cannabis beforehand. There's nothing worse than a soggy nug or wasted pre-roll. 
  4. Keep a small hand towel nearby, a lighter, and an ashtray (no one wants to soak in ash).
  5. If you're toking on a Kush Queen pre-roll, make sure to keep it in the glass container until you're ready. 
  6. Combine other modalities like crystals, music, or starlight to finish off the perfect vibration.

Combining both a topical and oral delivery method is a way to take your bath deeper and your mind higher. We encourage you to experiment with the different infused-bath bomb and flower options available to create your own favorite pairings.

Though the 'shower versus bath' debate has been going strong for generations, Kush Queen is here to explain why baths are (and will always be) unequivocally superior. 

Baths are better for many reasons. Not only do they provide deep muscle relaxation and pain relief, but they're also a sweet escape from reality. Baths cultivate a peaceful space we can retreat to where books get devoured, music plays uninterrupted, and favorite foods are enjoyed in peace... praise ganja!!

Like, seriously, what's not to love about a CBD bath bomb?!

CBD bath bombs are a great addition to your self-care routine. These wonderfully infused bath bombs can help you truly make the most out of your bath time ritual. The non-intoxicating CBD intensifies muscle relaxation and can simultaneously help your mind and body to unwind more easily. 

Read on to learn some awesome benefits of CBD-infused bath bombs and to get some 'inspo' on which ones you should try.

There Are Tons of Varieties

Much like all other bath bombs, CBD-infused ones come in a lot of different varieties. Kush Queen offers some that are tailor-made to promote rest and better sleep. We also have options to revamp and revitalize your skin and others that'll make you feel more energetic and engaged. 

The effect isn't the only factor to consider when purchasing a bath bomb. Aromatherapy is a common reason people use these quality products. Choose a scent that makes you feel better than before, such as citrus, florals, coffee, or peppermint. As we always say, the nose knows. 

If you're unsure about which color or scent is best for you, get a mini bath bomb variety pack and test out the multiple types of bath bombs we offer.

They're Easy to Use

CBD is generally pretty easy to use, but bath bombs take convenience to a whole new level. There is no need to decipher complex instructions as you would with a tincture or an edible; in this case, you simply put a bath bomb in the tub and let it work its magic. 

Because our bath bombs already come with the appropriate amount of CBD infused in them, you don't need to worry about perfecting your dosage either. Instead, sit back and watch as the colors move throughout the water and enjoy the therapeutic scent as it hits your nose.

They Magnify Healing Effects

Baths are incredibly healing no matter the circumstances. Stretching and moving in water provides strength through resistance. Plus, baths can help you breathe better and potentially improve both your brain and nervous system.

Certain studies suggest that baths can help your heart and make you more immune to diseases, but these are not 100% proven as fact. 

It's undeniable, however, that baths feel good and benefit your muscles, joints, and bones. Additionally, since hot water opens pathways that provide more oxygen to your brain, aromatherapy from bath bomb scents is likely very effective.

They Provide a Spa-Like Experience

Spas are intended to relax both your mind and body, and that's what CBD bath bombs do. Head-to-toe relaxation leads to less anxiety, and less anxiety leads to overall better mental and physical health.

Also, since these products are a true luxury, Kush Queen CBD bath bombs will make you feel like all types of high-class royalty from home. (It's giving a glowing Riri amidst the hustle and bustle of NYC).

Best of all, each bath bomb that we offer is price-comparable with other high-quality bath and body companies. Since these other companies don't let you reap the benefits of CBD infusion, this is a huge benefit. 

Kush Queen Love CBD Bath Bomb rests on a cloud

They May Heal Muscle Pain

Did you know that clinical studies have suggested that CBD indirectly improves the immune system's response to pain? CBD eliminates negative hormones and the proliferation of T-cells within the body. The CB1 and CB2 receptors in your natural body are strengthened and help to reduce muscle and joint pain.

CBD bath bombs will prove especially effective at this because they immerse your entire body in CBD. Unlike with a tincture or edible, you will be surrounded by its healing properties. This helps to promote your holistic health in all areas of the body.

They Can Benefit Your Skin

Regular bath bombs can benefit your skin in general because of the essential oils infused within them. These oils nourish, moisturize, and revitalize your skin to keep it smooth and comfortable. CBD bath bombs also incorporate basic essential oils in addition to cannabis, so they retain these benefits. However, like the other properties of baths, CBD magnifies these effects.  

2020 study suggests that there is therapeutic potential for CBD to help those with skin disorders become healthier. It also is likely proactive in keeping healthy skin moist and preventing problems further down the line.

While the overall topical benefits are still being studied, you should 100% try it to see if it works for you. Many users cite that there's a lot of truth to this research, proclaiming how CBD makes their skin feel revitalized and nourished. Since bath bombs touch all of your skin, this is a great way to try it out.

Whether you're looking to celebrate with some CBD self-care, try new effects from minor cannabinoids or create a sexy experience for your partner, there are endless ways to celebrate the cannabis plant.

You could do what you’ve always done for 4/20 but where’s the fun in that?! Meet your new favorite effect: lifted chill.

That's where the Delta 8 molecule comes in, it’s what you call lifted chill. Our 1:1 CBD and Delta 8 Gummies and Bath Bombs are for those looking for an extra-strength effect experience.

Newbies 

There’s absolutely nothing wrong with being a newbie, we all are at some point. Our advice for beginning your cannabinoid journey: 

  • Start low and go slow, no need to jump into taking a high dose 
  • Make note of how different molecules and delivery methods make you feel

We recommend our 25mg CBD bath bombs, the 500mg dose of Bare CBD Tincture, or the 375mg Gummies RX. All of these handmade CBD products are the perfect starting point for integrating cannabinoid wellness into your daily routine. If you are still not sure where to start, here is a guide to help with choosing Kush Queen products. 

If you’ve never tried cannabinoids, start with:

Keep in mind, if you are experiencing symptoms of a condition, you may want to start at a higher dose of CBD or explore minor cannabinoids. 

Unplug In Nature

Unplugging in nature, aka forest bathing is our team’s favorite! Did you know shinrin-yoku or forest bathing has ancient roots? The term “forest bathing” was coined in Japan, where nature and therapy have close ties. The idea of “park prescriptions” in urban areas first started in Asia and caught on worldwide. 

At Kush Queen, we love to combine forest bathing with a little cannabinoid therapy. 

First, prep your skin for a day outdoors with Foto Blur to lock in moisture and Foto Set to keep your tinted SPF in place. Pop a Gummies Rx Bliss CBG: CBD gummy or a Gummies Rx Elevated Lemon for a mood boost, while nature takes you the rest of the way. Add a walking meditation or bring a little snack to customize your forest bath.

The perfect pairs for a day outdoors:

Kush Queen CBD and Delta 8 Gummies

Self-Care Celebration

As the self-care queens, you know some of us are spending 4/20 with a full day focused on ourselves! Join us and spend 4/20 with a full day of CBD self-care. 

Here is how we imagine the day will go:

Start with a 100mg Relieve CBD bath bomb and soak for at least 30 minutes. We like to go full monty for these tub moments with a playlist and candles to match our mood. 

Once you're out of the tub, it’s time for your CBD facial. Gently, scrub your face and neck with Renew CBD Scrub, rinse and pat dry, Finish up by applying Defynt CBD Skin Serum. Defynt’s skin-nourishing ingredients will instantly soak in and give you a glowing effect. Now look in the mirror and repeat, ‘You a baddie and you know it!’ 

For some body TLC, take our Melt CBD pain relief lotion and massage it on your feet, neck, and any other areas that ache. 

Finish off your day of self-care with a Gummies Rx Bliss for a daytime mood boost or Gummies Rx Sleep if you are heading to bed.

Trust us, you’ll be glowing and feel like you're floating!

Happy Hallowellness from Kush Queen :D 

 

Celebrating Hallowellness is underway at KQ HQ! We can all use a little escape right now, amirite?! Fret not, our Glow CBD bath bomb creates a glow-in-the-dark bath that is the perfect way to celebrate the season. Plus, bathing with Kush Queen CBD bath bombs is always more than just a fizzy aesthetic moment. You are getting a three for one with cannabis-infused wellness, color, and sensory play. 

Let's get ready to create your Hallowellness glow-in-the-dark bath bomb party! Here is what we suggest to set the vibe.

The VIP, GLOW CBD Bath Bomb

We recommend using one GLOW CBD bath bomb for first-time CBD bath bomb users and two if you're an old pro or need a deeper feeling dose! 

Our Glow CBD Bath Bomb creates the perfect hallowellness celebration, featuring our best selling Relieve essential oil blend, 200mg CBD, and glow-in-the-dark mica pigment. These ingredients deliver equal parts wellness moment and fun spooky vibes creating a bath like no other!

Light It Up, For The Most Glow

With a little light charge before use, your GLOW bath bomb, infused with glow-in-the-dark mica powder (non-toxic and FDA approved for skin use) will glow once the lights are out. If you want to kick things up a notch and turn your glow bath all the way up, you’ll want to use a blacklight!

If you don’t have one at home, this one will do the trick, shop this blacklight. The blacklight will give your bath bomb an exciting extra pop; just be sure to keep the light far away from water. 

Set The Vibe For Your Spooky Soak

Kush Queen Hallowellness GLOW playlist

Sometimes you want to soak in silence and connect with your body and sometimes you need a fun escape. With the right playlist, the Glow CBD bath bomb turns your tub into a nightclub, VIP section with bottle service if you ask us!

We put together this vibey, 30 min playlist on Spotify. Crank it on before you enter the bath, slide into your soak, and be transported. 

Don’t Stop At The Bath, Bring On All The Glow

If you’re feeling extra (I always am, lol), toss on some glow bracelets to transform your tub into a disco. Here are a few inspo items we used at the GLOW photoshoot: glow-in-the-dark ice cubes for your club I mean tub drink, a glow-in-the-dark wig, and glow-in-the-dark nail polish.

Yesterday marked the launch of the world’s first-ever GLOW-in-the-dark CBD bath bomb! Created for a Hallowellness experience, GLOW delivers self-care plus fun just in time for Soaking Season.

Get to know our GLOW CBD bath bomb with a little Q&A with Kush Queen founder, Olivia Alexander.  

How did the Kush Queen GLOW CBD Bath Bomb get developed?

Olivia: Halloween is our favorite holiday of the year! Since this Halloween won’t be like any before, we thought, what better way to celebrate than with a bathing experience that GLOWS. Put on your glow-in-the-dark wig or glow makeup, and have fun with Kush Queen’s bath bombs that quite literally light up the room and offer targeted relief for pain or relaxation.

We know Kush Queen does a ton of research and testing. Who was the first person to test out GLOW?

Olivia: I’m always the first tester! Since day one I have been the KQ guinea pig for new products. Product development is one of my all-time favorite projects and once we started the GLOW CBD bath bomb brainstorming session, I could not wait for the first batch to be ready.

Now we have to ask, how was your first glow-in-the-dark test bath experience?

Olivia: No lie, as soon as I dropped the bath bomb in and turned off the lights, I screamed--LOL! After seeing how good the glow was I hopped in and took a couple of photos to share with our team.

It’s so exciting to see an idea come to life! Just like our first Halloween limited-edition CBD bath bomb, Black Magic, when the formula hits all the right elements and creates a moody moment that we know customers will love, it is very exciting!

Is GLOW more of a wellness moment or a fun spooky night in vibe? 

Olivia: 100% both! That's the one thing I love the most about our CBD bath bombs, they create a fun self-care moment. I say go all-in on the spooky vibes, put on a Halloween playlist, bring out any other neon or glow-in-the-dark items you have at home, and soak in the Hallowellness! 

The GLOW bath bomb uses our best-selling Relieve essential oil formula which includes Clove, Birch, Rosemary, Coriander, Black Pepper, Tea Tree, Eucalyptus, Spearmint, and Camphor to create a full-body topical application aimed at easing sore muscles and releasing tension. Combined with 200mg of CBD, GLOW is all treat and no tricks for the body!

What does the KQ community need to know about GLOW?

Olivia: This CBD bath bomb needs light charging to perform best. Your GLOW bath bomb has been in a dark box while traveling to you. Most likely it has lost its charge. Exposure to direct UV light, fluorescent light, or sunlight for one hour will get it primed to glow!

Just like all Kush Queen CBD bath bombs, GLOW is non-toxic, cruelty-free and lab tested.  

Conclusion

Join us in celebrating Hallowellness, shop the limited-edition GLOW 200mg CBD bath bomb!

There’s nothing I love more than getting to use a product before we launch it. The excitement I feel is like I'm in on a secret or getting to sit in the front row of a roller coaster. Enter, the Black Magic CBD Bath Bomb expanding to feature 100mg and 200mg doses!

Secretly, I’ve been testing out the higher doses of Black Magic CBD Bath Bombs and using the deep black color to ground myself as we enter my favorite seasons, soaking season and hallo-wellness!

The History Of Our Black Magic CBD Bath Bomb

I am fresh out of a self-care Sunday bath with our new 200mg Black Magic CBD Bath Bomb. The moody black waters bring me back to the summer of 2017 when we began our quest to create a non- staining black cannabis bath worthy of Kush Queen. There were many stained tubs, hands, duds, and fails before we landed on our Black Magic formula. A formula that resulted in a beautiful deep, black bath that wouldn’t require you to work after relaxation!

Black Magic was created as a seasonal, limited edition bath bomb but our community had other ideas. Once the 25mg Black Magic CBD Bath Bomb arrived it sort of never left. 

In preparation for the high dose launch, we scrolled through years of photos and found SO many Black Magic CBD baths. Black Magic is one of my favorite bath bombs we make at Kush Queen, don't tell the other bath bombs.

As the undisputed QUEEN of bathing, I love the Relax essential oil blend with lavender, chamomile, and frankincense and the dark moody waters make me feel like a witch goddess. 

Black Magic Is Available In 100mg and 200mg CBD Bath Bombs

Now, we are offering Black Magic in 100mg and 200mg as part of our 2020 hallo-wellness celebration. 

Over the years, one of the repeat community requests we hear is, will Black Magic ever expand to feature high doses? We heard you and black magic in higher doses is here to stay!

Our Black Magic CBD Bath Bomb is the perfect way to celebrate and welcome in the new season in a safe way that also doubles as a tool for healing. 

There is nothing better than stepping out of the tub feeling like you got a full body massage and seeing the last of the black waters run down the drain. I call it ultimate relaxation. 

Experience The Power of Black Color Therapy and CBD

There are a lot of preconceived notions about the color black. Most of us know the obvious that black is an achromatic color, which translates into without color. black is the representation of complete absorption of all light, which is where its power begins. 

In color therapy, sometimes called color healing, black is known to absorb negative energies and is commonly associated with protection. White Lotus Magazine reminds us, “black represents calmness, rest, and renewal. It carries energies of potential for growth and new possibilities.”

Combining the power of using black in color therapy with the CBD takes your self-care into the realm of deep spiritual healing. A 30-minute soak with a Black Magic CBD Bath Bomb will create an environment for grounding and increased awareness of your immediate reality.  

Bathing In Black Magic - How To Choose Your Dose

Try the 100mg if you are new to CBD baths or a seasoned pro with the 25mg Black Magic CBD Bath Bomb. 

Try the 200mg CBD Black Magic if you are super sore, stressed, or needing sleep. 

If you need even MORE CBD, we like to pair any dose of Black Magic CBD Bath Bomb with a dropper of bäre Daily Wellness CBD Tincture or Gummies Rx pre or post bathing. 

Conclusion

In 2020, there is no limit to the amount of self-care, grounding, CBD, and focusing on our immediate reality. Join us as welcome in soaking season and celebrate hallo-wellness with a Black Magic CBD Bath Bomb.
