I had been reading about the effects of Cannabis on women and sexuality and found out that there is a certain point where the plant actually has the opposite effect of turning a woman on. This is the reason I decided to use a lower dose of THC than a lot of other topicals out there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So after a lot of experimenting and testing, I have come up with what I think is the perfect recipe!<\/p>\n\n\n\n I use organic oils because I personally would not consume or put anything into or on my body that wasn’t. I have a very strong reaction to anything chemical. For example, all of the commercial lubricants out there cause me to break out in a rash. Anything that contains glycerin causes yeast infections, so I steer clear of that as well. If this kind of thing happens to me, I am sure it happens to others as well. Hence I wanted to make something that wasn’t going to cause more harm. The only problem I have had with this approach is that oil-based products do not work well with the latex in condoms, causing them to deteriorate, not a good thing if you need to use a condom. I decided not to compromise though, and found out there are condoms out there that work fine with oil-based products, so it all worked out!<\/p>\n\n\n\n HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN MAKING BLISS? WHEN DID YOU DECIDE TO SELL IT?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n By looking at a lot of research, I have found out that over 40% of women, over the age of 25, suffer episodic or chronic pain and discomfort from sexual activity! It sure has been a major problem for me personally. After starting to sell Bliss, those statistics have been confirmed, as a lot of women have contacted me with the same issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bliss is applied directly to the genitalia, which has many cannabinoid receptors. When this happens, it slows down signals to the muscles and causes them to relax. It also creates an ultra-concentrated sensory pleasure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Obviously, at this point, you are really only selling to half the population, making it, like you said, a niche-based business. My personal challenge is actually selling it. I love making it, and I loved designing the packaging, designing the website, learning about Cannabis, and learning about what the different kinds of carriers and essential oils do. Selling, not so much, which is not a good thing when you are trying to start a business. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Also, because I am selling mainly to women, I have to be very picky about where I might be able to sell it. It would not be easy for a woman to come into a dispensary and tell someone that they are having sexual difficulties, especially if the person behind the counter is a young man. I have started to do a “Tupperware” style of party, where women come together and talk about sexual issues, and have found this to be extremely rewarding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Then there is the fact that what I am doing is still very much in the grey market, which means you have to walk a very fine line – don’t be in the spotlight too much, but still try to sell – quite a difficult thing to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The main reason a man would benefit from using Bliss would be that he would very much make a woman happy. Plus it is edible, which could give him quite a buzz and make a woman even happier! The only way Bliss could affect a man would be if he used it anally, where it could be absorbed. But then again because dosages affect men differently than women, I doubt very much at the dosage I am using, it would do very much good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Thank you for the nice compliment! Yes, I still have the lip balm, but I now carry it in 3 flavors; peppermint, watermelon, and rose. I have also created a high CBD, low THC (100:20) suppository for pain caused by menstrual cramps and diseases such as endometriosis. Right now, I am testing it out on various female volunteers, but it will be on the website soon. Eventually, I will be adding a sensual massage oil and a high CBD tea for cramps as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Another thing I have been making is Bliss Balls, which I am just starting to sell. Again, I am trying to make them as healthy as possible, using only organic ingredients and little to no sugar and no gluten. I will be offering them in 3 sizes; 50mg, 25mg, and 10mg, and various flavors all covered in dark chocolate; shredded coconut and agave, cashew apricot, chocolate hazelnut, chocolate orange, and chocolate ginger. I will be posting them on the website soon.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n Because I am quite isolated where I live I have been working on building my company on my own. This means things are going much slower than I would hope. My husband has been helping, but because this is a women’s product, there is only so much he can do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n That said, since starting to attend the Women Grow meetings in both Vancouver and on Vancouver Island, I have met a whole group of amazing women who are interested in the same things I am, and live fairly close by.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I have already started working on some projects with 2 other women. So, with one of my friends, we are starting a clone business and with another, we are starting a 3D printing business making things like pipes and stash boxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n So yeah, I am building my empire! But only because I really like working on things like this with other people and this is the only way I could think of doing so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We are also in discussion with some investors, so I will be able to hire someone to do the marketing for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Pro networker! Ha! I have been very good at covering it up, but I am actually quite shy and introverted. Attending events like conferences are enjoyable to me because a) I am making new friends, who, as I said, are interested in the same things as I am, and b) because I am learning about all kinds of new things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It is also beneficial because I have created a network of people who might be able to help me out with various aspects of my business. Things like finding out who does extracts, where to order the cheapest packaging, who is good at marketing, or even finding a good lawyer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Find your tribe. Develop your relationships within that tribe. Be honest. Have integrity. Keep an open mind. Keep learning. And, keep going.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can order Bliss online here, Like the company on Facebook<\/a>, and Follow it on Twitter <\/a>and Instagram.<\/p>\n\n\n\n One single package of Bliss and one Lip Balm<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n 2 25mg Bliss Balls<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"cannabis](\"httpsss:\/\/theherblifestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/bliss.png\" "\\"\\"")
