*By Amanda Weston*
For the CBD-loving friends on your holiday shopping list, Eaze Wellness has stocking stuffers.
Eaze Wellness, which [launched in November](https://cheddar.com/videos/eaze-helps-navigate-a-crowded-cbd-landscape) as a CBD marketplace, released a [holiday gift guide](https://www.eazewellness.com/article/eaze-wellness-gift-guide-cbd-legal-products-ship-nationwide) for both CBD devotees and first-timers.
"There's a lot of curiosity and interest around CBD," Eaze Wellness Associate General Manager Betsy Holland told Cheddar Tuesday. "It is definitely one of the buzzwords this holiday season."
Holland said the company's goal is to do more than sell products ーEaze also wants to educate consumers about CBD and the best ways to incorporate the product into a healthy lifestyle.
"It's really a personal thing where people are trying these products and seeing their effectiveness and figuring out how to incorporate it into their own health and wellness lifestyle routine," Holland said. "So I think that gifting these products is an awesome chance of education."
Holland joined Cheddar to highlight some of the company's favorite CBD items this season, all of which are returning some proceeds of their sales back to charity, including the Equity First Alliance, American Forest, and the Global Girls Alliance:
1. [Kiskanu CBD Skin Rub](https://www.eazewellness.com/menu?product_id=18785) - $40
The anti-inflammatory skin rub features not only hemp oil CBD, but also St. John's Wort, comfrey, and beeswax.
"Up first, we have the Kiskanu CBD Skin Rub, which is great for beginners or those who are interested in trying CBD," Holland said. "It is a topical that you could apply to any type of joint pain and feel the relief within 10 to 15 minutes.
2. [Plant People Full Spectrum Drops](https://www.eazewellness.com/menu?product_id=18824) - $69
These drops are marketed as promoting relaxation, addressing stress and anxiety, and supporting brain and body function.
"The drops are a great product for someone who wants precise dosing," Holland said. "The really cool thing about these drops is that in addition to under your tongue, personally I put it in my coffee in the morning. I also put it in some tea at night. So there's multiple ways to use it.
3. [Kana Skincare Purple Rice Hemp Sleeping Mask](https://www.eazewellness.com/menu?product_id=22224) - $65
Eaze Wellness writes the cannabinoids and green tea leaf water help reduce skin's inflammation. Customers apply the mask before going to sleep and then wash it off in the morning.
"It's a face mask that you sleep in overnight," Holland said. "This mask really helps with decreasing that puffiness and making you look alert, alive in the morning, and it also makes your skin super soft."

The Rev. Al Sharpton is set to lead a protest march on Wall Street to urge corporate America to resist the Trump administration’s campaign to roll back diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives. The New York civil rights leader will join clergy, labor and community leaders Thursday in a demonstration through Manhattan’s Financial District that’s timed with the anniversary of the Civil Rights-era March on Washington in 1963. Sharpton called DEI the “civil rights fight of our generation." He and other Black leaders have called for boycotting American retailers that scaled backed policies and programs aimed at bolstering diversity and reducing discrimination in their ranks.
President Donald Trump's administration last month awarded a $1.2 billion contract to build and operate what's expected to become the nation’s largest immigration detention complex to a tiny Virginia firm with no experience running correction facilities.
Chipmaker Nvidia is poised to release a quarterly report that could provide a better sense of whether the stock market has been riding an overhyped artificial intelligence bubble or is being propelled by a technological boom that’s still gathering momentum.
Cracker Barrel said late Tuesday it’s returning to its old logo after critics — including President Donald Trump — protested the company’s plan to modernize.
Low-value imports are losing their duty-free status in the U.S. this week as part of President Donald Trump's agenda for making the nation less dependent on foreign goods. A widely used customs exemption for international shipments worth $800 or less is set to end starting on Friday. Trump already ended the “de minimis” rule for inexpensive items sent from China and Hong Kong, but having to pay import taxes on small parcels from everywhere else likely will be a big change for some small businesses and online shoppers. Purchases that previously entered the U.S. without needing to clear customs will be subject to the origin country’s tariff rate, which can range from 10% to 50%.
Southwest Airlines will soon require plus-size travelers to pay for an extra seat in advance if they can't fit within the armrests of one seat. This change is part of several updates the airline is making. The new rule starts on Jan. 27, the same day Southwest begins assigning seats. Currently, plus-size passengers can pay for an extra seat in advance and later get a refund, or request a free extra seat at the airport. Under the new policy, refunds are still possible but not guaranteed. Southwest said in a statement it is updating policies to prepare for assigned seating next year.
Cracker Barrel is sticking with its new logo. For now. But the chain is also apologizing to fans who were angered when the change was announced last week.
Elon Musk on Monday targeted Apple and OpenAI in an antitrust lawsuit alleging that the iPhone maker and the ChatGPT maker are teaming up to thwart competition in artificial intelligence.
