About the Company: Fab CBD
Fab CBD is a relatively new company — founded sometime in 2017. The company headquarters is located in sunny Tampa, Florida.
Unfortunately, not much could be found on the company’s owners, aside from a LinkedIn profile of a man named Josh Delaney.
The company has been featured in many major online publications such as Tuck, LA Weekly, Forbes, and Business Insider.
There are no listed charities the company donates to, nor are there any special discounts for active military personnel/veterans/firefighters, etc.

Where Does Fab CBD Source its Hemp?
Fab CBD sources its non-GMO hemp from organic farms in Colorado. These farms aren’t certified organic but do use organic growing methods like minimal pesticides, organic fertilizer, and non-GMO seeds.
In a blog post on the company website, the Fab CBD states it “works directly with the manufacturers and farm to ensure the highest quality products and the most efficient process from seed to sale”.

One of Fab CBD’s bestsellers is its CBD Drops. They come in standard 1 oz (30 mL) bottles and have a variety of strengths including:
- 150 mg for $24.00
- 300 mg for $39.00
- 600 mg for $59.00
- 1200 mg for $99.00
- 2400 mg for $129.00
Aside from the varying strengths of the oils, there are also three different flavor options: Natural, Mint, Citrus, Vanilla, and Berry.
The flavor of natural CBD can be overwhelming for some people and can be described as grassy, earthy, or nutty – if the natural flavor doesn’t sound appealing then a flavored option might be better for you.
There’s always the option of adding your CBD to drinks and smoothies, but keep in mind that it’s an oil and there will be some separation when it’s mixed with a drink.
2. CBD Topicals

This product may help provide support for normal and everyday stresses, as well as help recovery from exercise and provide a sense of calm for mental focus – it has to be stressed that CBD’s physiological and psychological effects have not been confirmed or supported by the FDA.
To use this product, you simply apply it to the affected area and massage until the cream absorbs into your skin.
Fab CBD offers a 2 oz jar of CBD topical for $64.
Each jar contains 600 mg of CBD with a natural blood orange scent from the added blood orange essential oil.

According to Fab CBD, these CBD Chews are a “THC-free and tasty way to have a CBD teat, even when you’re out and about” – the company also boldly announces that this product is vegan, non-GMO, and all-natural.
However, Fab CBD does warn customers that these products are processed in the same facility that handles soy and fish gelatin, as well as being packaged in a facility that handles wheat, peanuts, tree nuts, and milk products.
In one jar of the CBD chews you get 750 mg of CBD – that’s 30 chews with 25 mg of CBD each for $59.

250 mg/Pen |
Cost per mg CBD: |
$0.20 |
Fab CBD’s Vape Pen range is very limited and only contains two different flavor options: Active and Calm, each at a $49.00 price point, which is pretty expensive for a singular vape pen.
Calm contains linalool flavoring alongside nerol, which gives the vape juice inside an orange/floral flavor, whilst Active contains limonene, which gives the vape juice a more citrusy flavor – both options have medium-chain triglycerides (MCT Oil) from coconut as a carrier oil.
There is no vegetable glycerin (VG) or propylene glycol (PG) added to the formula.
5. CBD For Pets
Fab CBD Dog Treats
$39.00
Fab CBD Dog Treats 45 Treats

Cost per mg CBD: |

Fab CBD states that “CBD dog treats have become one of the biggest trends in the pet space over the last few years” and thought it “could do a better job” at creating its own.
The end result is a wheat-free product made with oats and broad-spectrum hemp extract – this means no THC is present in any of the treats.
You’ll find this product available in three different flavor variations: Calm & Cool (Peanut Butter), Skin & Coat (Salmon), and Active Immune (Chicken). You can also purchase all three flavors in a bundle at a discounted price as well.
On the website, there’s no information on the total amount of CBD in each packet. We emailed the company’s customer service representatives and they told us the packets are filled by weight and typically contain 40-50 treats. In the table below, we’ve outlined the price and potency as if each bag has 45 treats inside.
What Does Fab CBD Do Well?
1. Wide Range of CBD Oils
Though some of the other products in the company’s CBD arsenal could include more strengths to appeal to a broader customer base, Fab CBD offers a sufficiently wide range of CBD oils for casual and experienced CBD users. This wide range is particularly useful for users wanting to increase their CBD dosage over time.
If you’ve never taken CBD oils before, we recommend starting with either the 150 or 300 mg and working your way up from there.
Aside from the blog that needs updating (we’ll cover this directly below), Fab CBD’s website is stacked full of literature to keep you informed and up-to-date with CBD and the company’s products – the information is generally well-written and accurate.
Where Could Fab CBD Improve?
1. Update its Blog Posts
When written well, CBD blog posts and articles on a company’s website are invaluable and show more of a multifaceted side of the brand’s image than just simply selling products.
Fab CBD does have a blog, but it only has five blog posts and was last updated in August – we’d love to see Fab CBD improve on this and update it more frequently.
2. More Product Variants
Aside from the Fab CBD’s oil range, there’s not a whole lot going on elsewhere in terms of product options and variants, which could potentially turn customers away in favor of another company.
This could simply be down to how young this company is, however.
Safety & Third-Party Testing
Having third-party laboratory tests made publicly available for customers to see is necessary to the legitimacy of a CBD company – without them, the company is essentially hiding what’s actually in the product.
If you ever come across a company that does not provide third-party tests on its website, just ask. But if a company tells you it doesn’t have the tests or refuses to show you? Run the other way.
Fab CBD does a great job at listing all the third-party test results for the products in its lineup. We had a look through some of the archived tests and couldn’t find anything that stood out. All the companies tests seem to be in order and pass with flying colors.
Fab CBD’s Shipping & Returns Policy
Fab CBD has a fairly comprehensive Shipping & Returns Policy which outlines everything you need to know about your order.
Fab CBD makes a note that its “shipping department is working hard to make sure your Fab CBD purchase gets to your doorstep exactly how you ordered” — however, if there are problems with your order, the company states its refund procedure clearly, which is outlined for you below.
The company offers a 30-day refund time limit, which is generally the standard timeframe offered by most CBD companies – some do offer 60 days, but this is rare.
Shipping costs are non-refundable, though the company “will happily pay return shipping fees if the delivery is a mistake” i.e. your product is broken or the wrong product has been sent – samples packs are not eligible for a refund.
Refunds may take up to four weeks to process and show up on your bank statement (sometimes less) – this is due to return shipping, return processing, and refund requests to your bank.
Standard shipping usually takes 5-7 business days, not including weekends or federally observed holidays. International shipping is also available, though shipping times are naturally a lot longer and is dependant on where you’re located.
Free US shipping is available on all orders of $89 or more.
Final Verdict: A Simple and Effective Product Lineup
Fab CBD is a new company so trial and error is something to be expected. The prices are pretty standard for the current market, so if you’re looking for a reasonably-priced organic CBD range, this is one to keep in mind.
We love the branding Fab CBD uses for its products, and the companies strong attention to detail. They strive to provide premium CBD products to the world market, and so far — we haven’t been disappointed.
We look forward to seeing where Fab CBD takes the brand into its third year of existence.
