Please Note: In order to cut down on production time and the processing of all orders, sample sizes are no longer being offered.

 

BUBBLING SCRUBS & WHIPPED SOAPS: Settling may occur during shipping and appear to be less than full, this is the nature of the product. All whipped soaps and bubbling scrubs are packaged by weight and not by volume.

LIP BALMS: The propel-repel mechanism in our tubes was made for a twist up use only, these are not like lipstick tubes that can be twisted up and then back down. Only twist out what is needed at time of use. Failing to do so can result in product being wasted and not being able to be twisted back into the tube. This is just the nature of the packaging and does not constitute a defective product and is not subject to replacement, refund or exchange.

When lip balms are shipped during hot weather, please take your lip balm and place in the fridge standing up before opening it.

LOTIONS: Please store in a cool place and out of direct light. If you live in a hot climate or during summer months lotion may arrive slightly liquid, place into the fridge for about 15 to 30 minutes and the lotion should go back to normal.

PLEASE NOTE! All jars are filled by weight, not volume, therefore the product may not fill all the way to the top of the jar. Settling of lotion WILL occur during shipping and appear to be less then full. This is not a defect and as noted above, they are filled by weight, not volume. This does not constitute a defective product and is not subject to replacement, refund or exchange.

Additional Policies and FAQs

Please read all ingredients listed in each listing to avoid purchasing anything you may be allergic to.

We do not recommend using products containing essential oils, resins, absolutes or CO2's if you are pregnant, please consult a medical doctor before using any products containing these.

We use the most gentlest and high quality ingredients we can find. If irritation occurs, please discontinue use and contact your physician.

Variations in size, color, scent and form are expected in each and every product and does not constitute a substantial flaw in the product.

There will be times where ones body chemistry just does not want to tolerate them, whether it'd be morphing or the scent just doesn't last. Unfortunately this happens from time to time and is unpreventable. This is why we highly recommend ordering samples first.

Each scent is described with each note that is used for that scent. I try to be descriptive as possible. There are times when one nose may smell something entirely different from anothers. I find it interesting when a customer will tell me that a scent will smell like cantaloupe or something else when there isn't a drop of that note in there. It just goes to show how different we are.
