San Francisco-based indie cannabis beauty startup Green Bee Botanicals won 'Best Serum' for its CBD-rich Perfecting Serum in the 2020 Dirty Thinkers' Choice Awards, an international competition including established brands sold at Sephora, Ulta, Bloomingdales and Whole Foods.

Think Dirty, which brings transparency to the beauty industry and educates consumers about hidden toxins in skincare and personal care products, hosts the annual awards to celebrate clean beauty change-makers. Green Bee Botanicals and other winners in this year's competition were selected by Think Dirty's 143,000 Instagram followers and the 3.9 million users ("Dirty Thinkers") of the Think Dirty app, which tracks more than 1.76 million products and over 4,500 brands.

Green Bee Botanicals adds this Think Dirty clean beauty award to its Best Serum award in the California statewide Oakland Cup for its Renewing Serum, and Silver in the Best Topical category for its Brightening Eye Cream at the most recent Emerald Cup - "The Academy Awards of Cannabis" according to Rolling Stone Magazine.

Bridget May, Founder and CEO, Green Bee Botanicals: "We're 100% on board with Think Dirty's mission to clean up the beauty industry, and we're thrilled to win Best Serum in this (thankfully) increasingly competitive space." 

Kim Howard, Co-founder and COO, Green Bee: "We believe in radical transparency. We don't just claim our skincare is clean and safe; we test it, prove it, and share it publicly on our website."

All four of Green Bee Botanicals' flagship products,two face serums, eye cream and massage/body oil are organic, vegan and cruelty-free. Because they're made with full-spectrum cannabis, which includes many beneficial terpenes, flavonoids and cannabinoids (not just CBD), Green Bee products are sold only in these legal cannabis dispensaries and delivery services throughout California.

In early 2021, Green Bee Botanicals is introducing a new hemp-based skincare line featuring CBD and CBG, including a face cleanser, toner and moisturizer, that will be available from Green Bee's website as well as in retail stores throughout the US.
