This collection smells like candy and feels like a cloud. There’s simply no other way to describe the heaven-scented, soothing Honey Pot X Laganja Estranja Hemp CBD Body Care collection. Featuring three unique essential oil blends and over 2,000 milligrams of CBD total, this skincare collection is a collaboration by Honey Pot — a Cannabis Cup winner and CBD wellness product company — and Laganja Estranja, renowned favorite on season six of RuPaul’s Drag Race and cannabis advocate.
Retailing at $79.99 for a collector’s box, Laganja Estranja’s collection features a Sugar Daddy Purp CBD Bath Bomb, Super Lemon Blaze Hand and Body Wash, and a Blue Dream Cream Body Lotion. Each product features natural ingredients hand-selected to brighten, smooth, and cleanse — all while delivering a calming and relaxing skincare experience.
Each Honey Pot Hemp CBD skincare product is tested by Cannalysis and each product Emerald tried in this review came in well above the CBD levels advertised on the labels.
Bathing in Dreamy Luxury
150 mg of CBD advertised, 163 mg of CBD tested
$14.99 Standalone
The Sugar Daddy Purp CBD Bath Bomb’s fragrance is powerful. So much so that when we opened the brown paper bag it came in, we were almost overwhelmed by its intoxicating aroma of lime, lavender, and candy. The scent immediately reminded us of Fruity Pebbles in a way that made sitting in the silky smooth water feel like sinking into a luxurious bowl of breakfast cereal.
While we expected the water to be purple like the name suggested, our expectations were fulfilled by the promise of a CBD-soaked relaxation experience. However, third party test results show that the bath bombs have more CBD than advertised at 163 mg each. We would love to give 5 out of 5 emeralds for the transformation we experienced while reveling in the beautifully delicate steam of this CBD Bath Bomb, but have to knock off a point for an inaccurate CBD dosage.

Who Said Smelling Like Pie Was a Bad Thing?
1,000 mg of CBD advertised, 1,157 mg of CBD tested
Can only be bought in the box set
The Super Lemon Blaze Hand and Body Wash, true to its name, is an energizing blend of lemongrass, bergamot, and lemon. With 1,000 mg of CBD packed into one 8 ounce bottle, this soap is hardly a disappointment. Maybe we were just in a hungry mood the night we tried these products. But this Hand and Body Wash reminded us of a sweet lemon candy with a kick. The soap is slippery and clear, surprisingly runny, but lathers like every good soap does.
The Super Lemon Blaze Hand and Body Wash is just as powerful in the shower. A few pumps and you’re not only rejuvenating your skin, but emanating aromas of lemon pie from your skin for the rest of the day. Overall, we loved this CBD Hand and Body Wash. We almost hoped for opportunities to touch dirty doorknobs so we could keep washing our hands with this Honey Pot X Laganja Estranja miracle. Emerald gives this product 4.5 out of 5 emeralds — it is worth noting that the product labels are slightly inaccurate. The product’s third-party test results reveal that the product actually contains 1,157 mg of CBD per blend.
4.5/5 emeralds
Subtle Scent, Luxurious Feel … Blue Lotion?
1,000 mg of CBD advertised, 1,060 mg of CBD tested
Can only be bought in the box set
The final product in the Honey Pot X Laganja Estranja Hemp CBD Collection is just as satisfying as its siblings. The Blue Dream Cream Body Lotion features blue tansy and sweet grapefruit, though the scent is not as strong as the other two products in the collection. The lotion itself is actually blue — just a slight blue tint that delighted us as much as the smooth skin it left behind. A little goes a long way with this CBD Body Lotion. While thick, the lotion spreads out and absorbs on the skin to moisturize and soothe blemishes. The thickness actually lends itself to a sense of luxury — think the fancy hotel lotions that somehow always end up appearing in suitcases back at home.
We loved the whimsical color and scent. We also enjoyed the calming, moisturizing feel of conditioned skin after using the Blue Dream Cream Body Lotion. Although we do recommend persistence when first opening the pump. Due to the thickness of the lotion, we had to pump quite a few times before we were rewarded. But we would say the work was definitely worth it. 5 out of 5 emeralds from Emerald for a calming, subtle scent and luxurious feel.
Test results show that the lotion has 1,060 mg of CBD per bottle, which is not too far off from what is advertised.
5/5 emeralds
Chocolate-Mint Lip Hydration For Dessert
150 mg of CBD advertised, around 193 mg of CBD tested
$7.99
While we loved the Honey Pot X Laganja Estranja Hemp CBD Body Care collection, Honey Pot features other products just as fragrant and soothing. We snagged the Cannabis Cup Award winning Honey Pot Hemp CBD Cocoa and Mint Body and Lip Balm to try as well and were just as infatuated by it as Estranja’s collaboration. Customers can use this recipe as lip balm, or to alleviate swollen joints. The balm glides on the lips smoother than butter. It leaves a creamy, slightly tingly finish that feels incredibly hydrating without being too heavy. And the chocolate-minty scent is addicting.
After just a day of regular wear as lip balm, it nourished dry skin and left our lips feeling smooth and kissable just in time for Valentine’s Day. However, at almost 200 mg of CBD per lip balm, the product’s test results show it contains almost 25% more than advertised, which is worth noting for dosage. For only $7.99, this balm is a steal and commands 4 out of 5 emeralds.

Heaven-Scented CBD Bath, Body and Beauty Products
We at Emerald loved the Honey Pot CBD skincare products almost as much as the dessert smorgasbord we consumed immediately after smelling each fragrant, intoxicating aroma. For shoppers used to retail store prices, the prices are a bit steep. However, we felt that the luxurious feel of each product and its abundance of CBD make these Honey Pot products the perfect gift — for yourself or others. For those who love smooth, hydrated skin and smelling like a dessert bar, we can’t help but give The Honey Pot CBD products 4 out of 5 emeralds. We knocked off one emerald due to the inaccurate CBD levels on the labels.
