Last updated: 11 November 2026
Yes, Holland and Barrett sells CBD oil in its shops and online. When we checked its website on 5 November 2026, its CBD oil page listed 46 oils from more than 10 brands, from 500mg to 10,000mg per bottle, alongside gummies, capsules, sprays and balms. Its gummies page repeats the FSA’s 10mg a day advice.
Below: what’s on the shelf, which brands it lists, how it handled the FSA’s 10mg advice, what to know if you’re shopping for sleep, stress or aches, and a simple checklist for any CBD product, wherever you buy it.

View productWhat CBD does Holland and Barrett sell?
Holland and Barrett’s website has a CBD section with sub-pages for oils, gummies and capsules. We went through every page of it on 21 October 2026 and re-checked the oil and capsule pages on 5 November 2026. Here is roughly how the listings split by format:
| Format | Listings | Strengths shown |
|---|---|---|
| Oils and drops | 46 | 500mg to 10,000mg per bottle |
| Gummies | About 30 | 5mg to 30mg per gummy |
| Capsules | 13 | 10mg to 50mg per capsule |
| Balms, rubs and creams | About 9 | Up to 1,000mg per tub |
| Sprays | About 5 | Around 600mg to 1,200mg per bottle |
Ranges change often, so treat these numbers as a snapshot. Not every listing will be in every shop, and some are online only.
Some CBD listings on the website are sold by what Holland and Barrett calls “trusted sellers”, meaning other companies selling through its site. Its marketplace help page explains that a product labelled “Sold by [seller]” is delivered by Holland and Barrett, while “Sold and delivered by [seller]” ships directly from that company. Check the label if you want to know who you’re buying from.
Which CBD brands does Holland and Barrett stock?
In alphabetical order, these brand names appeared in the CBD section when we checked:
- Cannaray, CBD Guru, CBDfx, CBDIABLO, fourfive, Goodrays, Grass and Co., Herbal Health, Hippie Turtle Herbal Co
- Holland and Barrett’s own CBD muscle balms
- Jacob Hooy, KIKI Health, Love Hemp, Medahuman, Mission C, Pureis, Reakiro, Starpowa, TRIP and Vitabiotics
We aren’t rating or ranking any of them. Each brand publishes its own product details, so if one catches your eye, look up its lab reports and its entry on the FSA public list (more on both below). For a wider look at how to compare oils, see our guide to the best CBD oil in the UK and how to choose.
Holland and Barrett CBD oil: strengths and drops
Oils are the biggest group. The 46 listings we saw on 5 November 2026 came in 10ml and 30ml bottles, from 500mg to 10,000mg of CBD per bottle. Several are flavoured (orange, mint, berry, citrus), and a few add other ingredients such as chamomile, ashwagandha, turmeric or vitamin D.
The number on the front is the total CBD in the bottle, not the amount in each dose. To compare like for like, divide by the volume:
- 1,000mg in a 10ml bottle is 100mg per ml, so 10mg is about 0.1ml.
- 1,000mg in a 30ml bottle is about 33mg per ml, so 10mg is about 0.3ml.
- 4,000mg in a 10ml bottle is 400mg per ml, so the FSA’s 10mg a day is only 0.025ml, which is very hard to measure.
So two “1,000mg” oils can be very different strengths. Our guide to CBD oil strengths, mg and drops has a full chart, and how much CBD should I take? covers where to start.
Is there full spectrum CBD oil at Holland and Barrett? None of the oil listings we saw were described as full spectrum in their product names. Several were described as broad spectrum or THC-free. Full spectrum oils can contain a little THC, while broad spectrum and isolate are made to remove it. See full spectrum vs broad spectrum vs isolate.
Holland and Barrett CBD gummies and capsules
Gummies and capsules give you a set amount of CBD in each piece, so there’s no measuring oil. The listings we saw ranged from 5mg to 30mg per gummy and 5mg to 50mg per capsule, with vegan and sugar-free gummies among them.
That range matters because of the FSA’s advice. A single 25mg gummy is two and a half times the 10mg a day figure on its own. Holland and Barrett’s gummies page reminds shoppers that the FSA advises healthy adults to have no more than 10mg of CBD a day, and to count CBD from other products too.
If you’re weighing up formats, see CBD oil vs gummies and how to choose CBD capsules.
Holland and Barrett CBD cream and balm
Yes, Holland and Barrett sells CBD creams, balms, muscle rubs, a gel and massage oils. When we checked its website on 1 November 2026, its CBD Beauty page listed 33 products, and more muscle balms sat in its bone and muscle pages. Strengths in the names ran from 165mg (a lip balm) to 1,000mg of CBD per tub.
CBD balm at Holland and Barrett
Holland and Barrett sells CBD balm online and in store. When we checked hollandandbarrett.com on 9 November 2026, a search for CBD balm showed 22 products, including its own CBD Muscle Balm Extra and Ultra (50ml and 100ml, CBD amount not stated), Cannaray Muscle Rescue (250mg), Grass and Co. EASE (300mg), fourfive Muscle Rub (300mg) and Honey Heaven (1,000mg).
Other sellers on its website add Hippie Turtle rubs (500mg or 1,000mg), Mission C cream (1,000mg), Silber CBD+ rubs and lip balms from 60mg. Holland and Barrett’s own balms list methyl salicylate, the main compound in wintergreen oil. If you’re allergic to aspirin or take a blood thinner, ask a pharmacist before using any rub that contains it.
Most muscle products pair CBD with cooling or warming ingredients. Here are the main ones, with the CBD per gram or ml worked out from the label figures on each product page:
| Product | CBD and size | Per g or ml | Notable ingredients |
|---|---|---|---|
| H&B CBD Muscle Balm Extra and Ultra | Not stated; 50g or 100g | Not stated | Menthol, camphor, eucalyptus, capsicum, methyl salicylate |
| Grass and Co. EASE Muscle Balm | 300mg in 60ml | 5mg per ml | Peppermint, tea tree, eucalyptus, camphor, arnica |
| fourfive CBD Muscle Rub | 300mg in 45ml | About 6.7mg per ml | Menthol, pine, lavender, tea tree |
| Cannaray Muscle Rescue Balm | 250mg in 60ml | About 4.2mg per ml | Arnica, eucalyptus, juniper, rosemary |
| Hippie Turtle Warming Rub | 500mg or 1,000mg in 40g | 12.5mg or 25mg per g | Capsicum, methyl salicylate, ginger, cinnamon, arnica |
| Hippie Turtle Cooling Rub | 500mg or 1,000mg in 40g | 12.5mg or 25mg per g | Menthol, camphor, thyme, arnica |
| Honey Heaven High Strength Balm | 1,000mg in 30g | About 33mg per g | Plain, lavender, or eucalyptus and peppermint |
| Mission C CBD Cream | 1,000mg in 50ml | 20mg per ml | Peppermint, menthol, camphor, arnica |
| Osi Magnesium CBD Cream | 300mg or 1,000mg in 100ml | 3mg or 10mg per ml | Magnesium chloride, MSM |
| HEMPE Hot Muscle and Joint Gel | Not stated; 50ml or 150ml | Not stated | Menthol, clove, eucalyptus, alcohol |
| Honey Heaven CBD Massage Oil | 500mg in 100ml | 5mg per ml | Eucalyptus, peppermint, sweet almond oil |
Holland and Barrett sells its own balms and the Grass and Co. and fourfive products itself. Hippie Turtle, Honey Heaven, Mission C and Osi come from “trusted sellers”, other companies selling through its website. Silber CBD+ also lists warming and cooling muscle rubs (50ml), with no CBD amount stated.
Holland and Barrett’s own balms: the product pages for CBD Muscle Balm Extra and Ultra didn’t state how much CBD is in the tub when we checked, and both showed the same ingredients list. If the amount matters to you, check the label or ask in store. For faces, it sells its own CBD Night Cream (50ml, amount not stated) and Grass and Co. GLOW CBD Day Cream (250mg in 50ml, 5mg per ml).
Balms and creams go on the skin, so they’re treated as cosmetics rather than food. The FSA’s novel food rules and its 10mg a day advice cover CBD you swallow, such as oils, drinks and gummies, so they don’t apply to topicals in the same way. Cosmetics can’t make medicinal claims either, such as treating joint pain.
Before you use one: patch test on a small area first, keep it off broken or irritated skin and away from your eyes, and wash your hands afterwards (rubs with capsicum or menthol can sting). Read the full ingredients if you have allergies: some contain nut oils, lavender or other essential oils. Several of these brands say not to use them during pregnancy or breastfeeding. We don’t recommend our products during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
What to check: divide the CBD in the tub by its size (300mg in 60ml is 5mg per ml; 1,000mg in 40g is 25mg per g), then look for the full ingredients list, a lab report for your batch, and the “Responsible Person” with a UK address, which cosmetics sold in Great Britain must show on the label. For face creams, see CBD for skin: what the research shows.
Our pick
CBD Balm Muscle & Joint Support
buy direct from Evopure. Our CBD Balm, Muscle and Joint Support (not sold in Holland and Barrett) is a cosmetic for massage, with 600mg of CBD per tub (20mg per 2ml serving) plus peppermint, eucalyptus and juniper. It’s cooling and non-greasy, and like any cosmetic it isn’t a treatment for any condition.
Our balm’s product description mentions wintergreen oil, so ask a pharmacist before using it if you’re allergic to aspirin or take a blood thinner.

Holland and Barrett and the FSA’s 10mg advice
In October 2023 the Food Standards Agency (FSA) cut its advice for healthy adults from 70mg to 10mg of CBD a day. Holland and Barrett’s response made the trade press:
- 13 October 2023: it temporarily took 31 CBD products off sale, in shops and online, where a single serving was over 10mg, such as some canned drinks and gummies.
- 23 October 2023: it put them back on sale, adding guidance at the shelf edge, links to the FSA’s consumer advice in online product descriptions, and staff training.
The products could still legally be sold throughout. The FSA’s figure is advice, not a law, and a retailer can choose how to present it. Today, its CBD oil page tells shoppers to check the amount of CBD per serving, and its gummies page repeats the FSA’s 10mg advice. The fuller story on the figure is in our guide to the CBD daily limit in the UK.
The FSA also doesn’t recommend CBD for under-18s, anyone pregnant, breastfeeding or trying to conceive, or people taking any medication, unless under medical direction. If you take medication, see can CBD interact with medication?
Holland and Barrett CBD for sleep, anxiety, pain or arthritis
People often search for CBD at Holland and Barrett with a goal in mind, and its website places some CBD products in goal-based categories such as sleep and relaxation. Whatever the shop or brand, it helps to know where the evidence stands:
- CBD isn’t a treatment. CBD food supplements can’t legally claim to treat, prevent or relieve any condition, and there are no authorised health claims for CBD in the UK.
- The research is still early. Most human studies on CBD for sleep, anxiety or pain are small or short, and the results are mixed. Our guides go through the trials honestly: does CBD help you sleep?, CBD and anxiety, CBD for pain and CBD and arthritis.
- See your GP first if sleep problems, anxiety or joint pain are ongoing, getting worse or affecting daily life. Those deserve a proper check, not just a product.
If you do want a CBD oil as part of an evening routine, our guide to choosing a CBD oil for sleep explains what to look for.
How to check any CBD product on the shelf
These six checks work for any CBD product, on the high street or online:
- Is it on the FSA public list? CBD food sold in England and Wales (oils, capsules, gummies, drinks) must be linked to an application on the FSA’s public list. Search the product or brand name. If it’s missing or marked “Removed”, the FSA says it shouldn’t be on sale.
- How much CBD per serving? Look for mg per ml, gummy or capsule, not just the total on the front.
- Is there a recent lab report? A certificate of analysis (COA) from an independent lab should match your batch and show CBD content and THC. See how to read CBD lab reports.
- What about THC? THC is a controlled drug. Choose a product whose lab report shows THC not detected if you drive or face drug tests. See does CBD show up on a drug test?
- Which spectrum? Full spectrum, broad spectrum or isolate. The label or product page should say.
- Who it’s for. Adults only, and not during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
For the legal background, see is CBD legal in the UK? and our explainer on the FSA’s first CBD approvals.
High street or online?
Both have their place. A quick comparison:
| What you want | High street shop | Buying direct online |
|---|---|---|
| See the product first | Yes | Photos and details only |
| Take it home today | Yes, if in stock | Delivery needed |
| Ask questions | Store staff | The brand’s own team |
| Lab report for your batch | Ask the brand | Ask the brand, or on its site |
| Full range and strengths | What’s in stock | The brand’s whole range |
Whichever you choose, the checklist above is what matters. Our guide to avoiding CBD scams covers the online red flags, such as fake celebrity ads and “free trial” subscriptions.
Where Evopure fits
Evopure isn’t sold in Holland and Barrett, and we’re not connected with it. We sell online, direct from our own website. Here’s what we can tell you about our own products:
- Broad Spectrum CBD Oil: broad spectrum CBD in coconut MCT oil, nothing else. 10ml bottles in 500mg, 1,000mg and 2,000mg (10mg of CBD is about 0.2ml, 0.1ml and 0.05ml).
- Broad Spectrum CBD Capsules: a set 10mg or 25mg of CBD per vegan capsule, 30 in a pack.
- Sleep CBD Oil: broad spectrum CBD with passion flower and a terpene blend led by myrcene, made for an evening routine. CBD isn’t a treatment for sleep problems.
- CBD Balm, Muscle and Joint Support: CBD with peppermint, eucalyptus and juniper. Cooling and non-greasy, for massaging in after exercise.
All our CBD products are 0% THC and on the FSA public list, linked to validated applications RP438, RP821 and RP47, which means they can be sold while those applications are assessed. Everything is vegan, made in the UK and tested by ISO 17025 accredited labs, with reports on request from our lab testing page. Our products are for adults (18+) only, and we don’t recommend them during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
The FSA’s 10mg a day figure is precautionary advice rather than a legal limit, set while longer-term safety research continues. At Evopure we think it is a very cautious figure, and many adults use more. If you go above it, increase slowly, and check with your GP or pharmacist first if you take any medication.
