Shipping FAQs

1. Where do you ship?

International Orders: If there are additional taxes, customs fees  or  any other fees associated with your order. This will be billed to the customer.

2. Do you ship to PO Boxes?

3. What If my products melt during transit? 

During transit and during warmer months, your products are prone to changing textures such as softening or even melting due to extreme temperatures.

If this occurs, prior to opening your jar, place the items in your refrigerator for a few hours to allow them to harden. DO NOT OPEN TO CHECK FOR MELTING BEFORE REFRIGERATION. This can cause spilling which will result in loss of product.

Our hand-whipped process adds tiny air bubbles that increase the volume, just like whipping cream. If a whipped product melts, the air bubbles collapse and the volume is decreased. 

So, although the jar was filled to the top initially, there will be less volume in the container (since it has deflated) and the container may actually look half full.

After cooling, a melted Whipped Butter will be the consistency of a body balm and is still a great moisturizer!
