NOON reviews and discussion

I ordered NOON after a week of high anxiety and really needed something to help me balance out during the working day. I had heard about it from a friend and after visiting the site and falling in love with the branding as well as the mission to embrace eastern wisdom with a more western idea, I decided to go ahead and purchase the Rise and Renew products. I've been using them for 3 weeks right now and absolutely love the packaging, taste and feel a huge difference in my day to day, particularly with feeling calmer and more focused.

I use Rise from NOON (the morning/start-of-day) one and have been loving the way it helps me—in a very subtle, non-jittery/loud way—cut through the "ugh" of whatever work I may be starting my day with and just get right into it. Feels like a positive, easygoing, productive start to my day. Plus I like that it makes me drink a full glass of water first thing in the morning instead of a cup of coffee. Normally, I've found that if I take the Rise in the morning, I will either skip coffee in the morning altogether or just have a small amount later in the day (versus prior habit of having one coffee in the morning and one in the afternoon).

I can’t tell if it actually works or if it’s a placebo but in any case, it’s delicious dark chocolate!

The gummies are delicious, like I actually always want more, but I can't say I notice much of a difference mentally.

I have been wanting to get into mushroom based products for a while. The design of the packaging and products blew me away so I gave them a try. The taste? Amazing! Perfect taste and texture unlike so many other healthy gummy brands.

love anything with mushrooms and the concept is cool. had higher expectations for benefits but only took a few from a friend so might be something you need to try consistently to feel the full effect. also a big fan of the packaging!

I have fallen in love with NOON! tried the Trifecta Kit and am highly excited by all 3! The Sleep, Focus, and Chill gummies each partner so effectively together to improve overall wellbeing!

***UPDATE: We're moving up to four stars, baby. Incredibly impressed with the NOON team - they not only replied to my review, but also sent me an email personally regarding upcoming updates to their formulation. Incredible customer experience. Will update again once I've tried the new formulation, but in the meantime, going to try adding my NOON to tea in the evening as suggested! :) --- TLDR: Incredible packaging, awesome formula, actually works - but the flavor is really unpleasant for me. :( I bought NOON's Relax drops from their website a month or so ago and I was genuinely so impressed with the packaging that I created & posted an unboxing video on Twitter, which is out of character for me, LOL. Packaging is stunning. Bottles are gorgeous. Everything about purchasing and owning this product feels like a luxury experience. 5/5 NOON's Relax formula is legit. It worked for me; I actually had an easier time falling asleep and felt as though I had high quality sleep. So formula? 5/5. But here comes the "but". I don't know if I'm being a baby or it's genuinely unpleasant -- but I cannot get over the taste of the formula. It's thick and oily, it smells vaguely like mint and vanilla, and it tastes like a flavoring was added on top of the ingredients to mask it's naturally weird taste. You're supposed to drop it under your tongue, and I found myself dropping it in the back of my throat just to avoid the taste (which might impact efficacy? IDK). I genuinely want to see this brand thrive because it's clear how much care was put into creating incredible packaging and well-made formulas. NOON team - if you're reading this, I'm literally willing to help you guinea pig flavor testing!! I just know that because I find the flavor so off putting, I'm not going to consistently use the product :( and I really want to!

I have not noticed a difference using the product and it is high priced for no benefit for me

Been using the Rise drops .5 ml every day twice a day for a week now. I find I really do feel more calm and focused, especially since since I take them after my morning and afternoon workouts where I usually consume some high caffiene preworkout. Taking Rise after I feel focused and not jittery or nervous despite work chaos (is it the caffiene or my companies obsessive use of Slack? lol). I generally mix with water so it has no flavor. I would say that I dont' like not being about to see how much liquid is in the bottle... how do you know how much you have left?

I received my Thingdrop purchase of the Rise and Relax drops, as well as the In The Zone chocolates yesterday so this is a 'first impressions' review. First off, the packaging is lovely. Heavy, frosted glass bottles color-coded for each formula in pleasing blue-gray shades are securely contained in heavy but recyclable cardboard boxes. The chocolates are in a simple paper sleeve. Both drops come with an included info card detailing the purpose of the various ingredients. I do think that the formulas are a bit thick for highly accurate dosing with the bottle dropper, but its CBD, so Im not terribly concerned about precision. The chocolate did arrive with some slight bloom, despite being shipped with an ice pack, but I don't fault noon for that, its summer in Virginia, after all. Taste is more pleasant than other CBD drops I have tried. I, personally, really dislike the flavor of CBD/THC products so its nice that these have a lot more going on to kind of mask that intensely "green" flavor. Rise is a bit citrusy which is nice in the morning and Relax seems chocolatey(?), both are tasty enough. I didn't notice much after using each formula once, but I plan to use both drop formulas for the next week or two to see if the effects become more apparent, and will probably increase the dose from .5ml to 1ml going forward. So far, I think these are really nice and Im looking forward to including them in my routine, which I emphatically cannot say for other CBD supplements I have tried.

We purchased the Rise and Relax drops and In The Zone chocolates on the ThingDrop. Packaging was clearly high-end in all regards. Let's start with the chocolates... I'm a dedicated chocoholic who prefers 85% plus and loves 100% quality chocolate as often as possible. These chokkies were delicious... great texture/mouthfeel and pleasantly chocolately without being too sweet or bitter. As for the drops, morning and night and it seems alright... definitely a pleasant taste/aftertaste to both. Again, beautiful bottles and a nice dropper as well. So, as to the nootropic, hard to say as per usual. But we always feel great after a bit of chocolate so it's good!

The chocolate is delicious, but I have no idea if it's working or not in terms of focus! Maybe placebo effect?

I will caveat this review by saying I don’t think I can really review supplements (I’d include cbd in this category) for their effectiveness, so will just speak to my experience. First of all, the packaging is beautiful, the drops come in these nice boxes that I now am reusing to store receipts in, and the bottles are super chic. I personally don’t like the taste of these, it’s a very earthy, vaguely chocolatey flavor. The instructions mention putting the drops in a drink but I can’t think of a drink I’d want to flavor with these so never tried it. Instead I’ve just been putting half a dropper full under my tongue and then chasing with some water. I’ve mostly been using the relax drops and have only noticed a small effect so far. I may try larger doses later, but this is not cbd that is going to send you to space or anything, it’s more functional and day to day. I’ll report back if I notice a stronger difference after amping up my dose!

I tried the chocolates and didn't experience any significant effects.

Mainly bought this because I liked the packaging and branding, but I felt no effects at all. The taste is unpleasant also. I wouldn't say the chocolate was bitter but it had that dusty, bland flavor like stale chocolate that's not yet spoiled but is definitely past it's prime + plus that lion's mane flavor iykyk.

I love the packaging and the overall vibe of noon. As far as effectiveness I have not noticed any difference when using it. I also waited for over two weeks for the products to ship and when I reached out to the brand they seemed very annoyed that I was even inquiring about my order status. Overall I don’t think it’s worth the price point at all, if you’re wanting to try CBD there are better alternatives out there for a better price.

Tried the nootropic chocolates through Thingdrop. Thought the packaging, flower imprint, and overall brand experience was excellent! The chocolates tasted delicious, and didn't have a mushroom-y or strange taste. Just tasted like pure chocolate, which I enjoyed. I didn't notice any beneficial effects of the nootropic ingredients, so I wouldn't purchase again for the "wellness" benefits, but I would for just taste and experience of the chocolates. I would be interested to see if the Drops have more of an effect!

Love the packaging and the concept. Gorgeous way of ingesting adaptogens and feeling better. The focus gummies are really great at helping with focus. Same with the chocolates. The sleep gummies are mild so won't knock you out or leave you groggy. (Which may be a good thing).

The Noon gummies are amazing. I've been taking the Sleep the most and have had amazing sleep every night I've taken them. I also love the Focus and find my flow state much faster when I take it at least an hour after eating. Great flavor on all of them, great packaging lured me in by I'm here for the function. Highly Recommend.
