CBD oil is a convenient and fairly fast-acting way to consume cannabidiol and feel its benefits. Depending on how often you use CBD oil and how large a dose you have, a single bottle could last a long time, especially if you’re new to CBD and are starting with small doses. Or maybe you plan on buying in bulk so that you’ve got several bottles in reserves. Either way, it’s good to know how to store your CBD oil properly in order to preserve it well.
Where should CBD oil be stored?
There are two options when it comes to storing your CBD oil; you can refrigerate it or simply store it in a cool, dry place that’s away from direct sunlight, such as a kitchen or bathroom cabinet. CBD oil is perfectly fine being stored at room temperature as long as the above advice is followed.
Alternatively, you can refrigerate CBD oil to help extend its shelf life and keep it in a cool, dark space. Just ensure that the container is completely airtight to prevent moisture from getting in. Refrigeration can be the better option if your home and climate are particularly warm and humid. You might also be better refrigerating your CBD oil if you’ve bought several bottles in bulk and want to keep them all in good condition for longer.
It’s advised to keep CBD oil in the bottle it comes in rather than transferring it to another container. These bottles are designed to be airtight and with darkened glass to block out some light, helping to keep the oil in the right conditions.
Does CBD oil expire?
If you’ve had a bottle of CBD oil for a while, then you may be wondering if it’s still safe to use. CBD oil does expire, but storing it properly in the ways advised above will help to extend this expiration date. A bottle of CBD oil can last for around 12-24 months if it is stored properly. This will also depend partially on the quality of the product and its ingredients.
Although expired CBD oil is unlikely to do any harm if you ingest it, the potency of the product will degrade over time, so it is unlikely to be effective if you consume CBD oil after its expiration date. The smell, taste, color, and texture of the liquid may also change if your CBD oil has passed its shelf life.
