DOWN THE HATCH
This is the most basic method. Load the dropper with oil by pressing the rubber cap and allowing it to suck up some oil and drop it directly right into the mouth and swallow. Just fill the dropper with one squeeze of the top cap. The oil should fill up the glass dropper by 3/4 of the way. You might intend to start with half a dropper if you've never used delta 8 THC before or are normally more conscious THC.
HOLD IT UNDER YOUR TONGUE
In this technique, instead of swallowing the oil directly, hold it underneath your tongue for 60-120 seconds. This enables the delta 8 products to absorb through a network of tiny blood vessels below the tongue. This technique has the fastest start of effects. This is because the delta 8 THC is taken straight into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system tract and first-pass liver metabolic process. This is the most effective technique for consuming tinctures orally. The disadvantage is that if you do not like the taste of the oil, it can be pretty uneasy.
MIX IT WITH SOMETHING TASTY
Those who don't like the taste or appearance of taking the oil straight, can also blend it with something tasty to mask the taste.
Remember that oil does not mix well with water, so if you try to add this tincture to a tea or juice it's going to float to the surface of the beverage. When you take your first sip, you're going to get a direct hit of the oil drifting on the top. To get around this, you'll want to make sure the oil is blended into the beverage.
PUT IT ON YOUR SKIN
The delta 8 thc tincture can be applied topically. Delta 8 THC has been researched for its topical effects, and much like CBD, there's evidence to recommend it can provide positive effects to the skin and muscles. The tincture contains delta 8 distillate and a carrier oil-- both of which are fit for topical use as they are for inner use. Keep in mind that you only require a small amount-- simply a few drops. Applying too much oil on the skin is going to leave an oily mess. So instead, include a couple of drops and massage them in before adding any more.
