For Pride Month, Kush Queen launched a colorful collection of Pride skincare that includes a vibrant rainbow-hued bath bomb, daily wellness supplement and a water-based lubricant.
This year's Pride Month is not just a celebration of the LGBTQ+ community but also a time to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall riots. Kush Queen's reflective Pride Collection introduces CBD-infused skincare solutions that specifically explore the intersection of cannabis and the LGBTQ+ community—as Kush Queen describes, "Our access to cannabis would not exist without the incredible men and women who fought for Proposition 215. Because of them, California would adopt its first medical cannabis legislation in 1996, opening the doors for AIDS patients and many others to gain access to plant medicine."
20% of all of Kush Queen's Pride Collection sales help to support the Trans Lifeline organization.
