Refund and Returns Policy

We always strive to supply high quality, well made products.  

In the event of goods having been damaged in transit, you need to notify us within 1 business day of delivery.  Visibly damaged packages should not be signed for upon delivery as this may void the insurance on the package.

Our refund and returns policy is valid for 30 days from purchase.  If 30 days have passed since your purchase, we can’t offer you a refund or exchange.

Order Cancellations

If you wish to cancel an order that has not yet shipped, there will be a cancellation fee payable of 10% of the order value and we will refund you the balance of your payment.

To cancel an order that has already shipped, you will need to follow the returns process below.  Courier fees are not refundable and a cancellation fee of 10%  of the value of the order, plus any fees charged by the payment processor, will be charged.

Returns

To be eligible for a return, your item must be unused and in the same condition that you received it. It must also be in the original packaging.

Several types of goods are exempt from being returned. Goods such as oils, butters, clays and other raw materials cannot be returned. We also do not accept products that are intimate or sanitary goods.

  • Then contact your credit card company, it may take some time before your refund is officially posted.
  • Next contact your bank. There is often some processing time before a refund is posted.
  • If you’ve done all of this and you still have not received your refund yet, please contact us.

For non defective items, you will be responsible for paying return shipping costs for your item.

We will cover return shipping on defective items for a period of 60 days from date of dispatch.  Thereafter the customer is responsible for shipping charges.

Shipping costs are non-refundable. If you receive a refund, the cost of shipping will be deducted from your refund.
