As a cannabis columnist, I receive a fairly large number of cannabis products for review. This week, I’m going to knock out some quick reviews for a bevy of items. Most of them are real, but one is fake.

CANNASMACK

When I saw the shipping label for this, my first thought was, “Is this a cannabis-based S&M spanking tool?” Thankfully, I was wrong, mostly due to the fact that those things don’t exist, and it’s a stupid idea. In reality, CannaSmack is a line of hemp-infused lip balms and body and skin creams. It’s high-quality stuff, free of parabens, gluten, sulfates, THC, and cruelty, and made here in the US. They have a variety of strain-flavored lip balms, including Blue Dream, Pineapple Express, and Maui Wowie. The company is woman-owned and Utah-based, and has a very cool list of company values. You want to support a worthy small business that has some great products? Of course you do. Smooth lips and skin rule. cannasmack.com
