Your country may charge you customs and import duties on packages entering your country from the UK. If this is the case for your country, once your order leaves mainland UK via our shipping carrier and passes to your country customs authority you will be contacted for payment of customs or import duties, if they apply.  Payment is your responsibility – we do not pay for anything to be released from shipping carriers or customs to you.

Your package will not be released or delivered to you until you complete payment of any requested duties.  Customs duties vary from country to country so we are unfortunately unable to advise on what they may be. Customs departments and shipping carriers do have the right to hold items, which can delay delivery and we are unable to do anything about this.

If you choose not to pay the requested duties on import, the package will be returned to us. In this case, once the package is received by us and checked to ensure it has not been opened or tampered with, we can issue you a refund less any shipping already paid by you and less the import handling fees charged to us for its entry back into the UK.

Please consider that your purchase online with us and shipping fees do not include possible taxes or duties which may be applied by customs authorities or shipping carriers on delivery into your country – nor for the additional fees to ship your order back to us if you choose to reject receipt of it. The payment and knowledge of taxes and duties that may apply to your purchase are your responsibility and we do not reimburse customs or duties costs. 

For more information on what duties and taxes may be payable by you prior to the delivery of your parcel, we strongly recommend checking your local customs website or contacting them directly prior to placing your order.

Approved refunds will be paid back to your original form of payment and less any shipping and/or custom fees.

Please keep in mind that our fragrance strengths vary between products and while they are made to last on your skin this longevity can differ significantly from person to person.  You may find that one product fragrance will last longer than another, particularly when comparing wash off products to leave on skin products.

Are all your products vegan?

Yes they are! None of our products (that includes our bespoke fragrances) contain any animal products or any animal derived ingredients. We use the term ‘vegan friendly’ on our packaging so there isn’t any confusion with vegan certification organisations.

Are your products tested on animals?

Never, for two really good reasons. Firstly, we don’t support cosmetic animal testing, it’s not part of who we are or our values.  And secondly (and really importantly) it’s been banned in the UK since 1998 for both finished cosmetic products and cosmetic ingredients and is banned in the EU also. The cosmetics industry is highly regulated, as it should be, and we formulate and test all of our products and fragrances in line with UK and EU regulations and standards.

How long do I have to use the products?

On the back of our packs, you will see a small symbol with a number inside it. This symbol is called the ‘PAO’ or ‘period after opening’ and the number is the months you have to use the product once you have opened it. For all of our products it’s 12 months.

Are your products safe to use in pregnancy or safe for babies?

The quick answer is no. The longer answer is because we haven’t undertaken the specific testing available to determine if the ingredients and fragrances in each product meet a safety standard for pregnancy and separately for babies from birth or babies from six months onwards. As we are a fragrance forward brand, it makes it much harder as there are very few essential oils that are considered safe for use in pregnancy and no definitive regulatory standards for fragrance in pregnancy. Therefore, we need to side with caution and say no.

Where are your products made?

All our products are manufactured in the UK. Our bottles, caps and labels are also all manufactured in the UK. Our pumps are manufactured in Europe and our shipping boxes that deliver your products to you are made in both the UK and in Europe.

Are your products natural?

We don’t call ourselves natural or clean or sustainable or any other popular term. We are however very considered in everything we do. We focus on balance, efficacy and science and don’t demonise ingredients or materials. For us, balance means not putting demand on any one source of ingredients, which is why we produce vegan products and why we mix natural, nature derived, biochemical and synthetic ingredients in both our formulas and fragrances.

The science of cosmetics means synthetics can be derived from natural sources, preferably sustainably sourced ones, not just petrochemicals. Naturals can be both great and not-so-great when formulating and can also have negative environmental impacts. Natural does not necessarily mean better or sustainable. There are many aspects to consider when making products and the impact they have for people and planet.

Is your packaging sustainable?

We take a responsible approach to the design and sourcing of our packaging. We invested in making our own bespoke bottle for our 300ml products so we could guarantee quality, have it made in the UK and achieve a 100% post-consumer recycled (PCR) bottle that is recyclable and re-usable. Our 200ml bottles and caps are also 100% PCR, recyclable, re-usable and made in the UK. We are one of the first brands in Europe to use a pump made from 50% PCR – which we are really proud of – and is recyclable. Our labels are made from rocks, a paper that is tree-free, has a clean manufacturing process and are recyclable. And our sample sachets that you complimentary with your orders are recyclable also (which is rare in the beauty industry!) You can read more in Our values section.
