PRODUCT STORAGE
All products are checked carefully before dispatch
to the customer. We cannot be held responsible for deterioration
of the products due to the customer's incorrect storage
conditions ie, exposure to direct sunlight, frost, humidity
or heat etc. The customer should ensure that the products
are kept in cool and dry conditions (bathroom windowsills
are often exposed to direct sunlight and so are the
creams or products displayed on them), and a clean spatula
is used to remove products from the jar (instead of
fingers) to minimise the risk of deterioration in the
product resulting from external contamination. All liquid
products, such as shampoos and shower gels, should be
shaken well before use to emulsify the ingredients.
Should some oil separation occur in your creams and
lotions, please stir the product with a clean spoon
or a suitable utensil until the oil has blended into
the cream. Oil separation does not affect the qualities
of your cream.
SHELF LIFE
Our products are not preserved with chemicals substances
such as parabens or phenoxyethanol. Instead, we
use pure vitamin E & essential oils in the creams,
and vitamin E, apple cider vinegar & grapefruit
seed extract in the shower gels & shampoos. All
our products have a shelf life of a minimum of 6 months
unopened, and 2-3 months from opening. Most products
will be usable for longer, however their quality may
detiriorate. To avoid disappointment, please start using
your products as soon as possible after purchase and
keep them away from sun or heat. Please avoid stocking
up - just like with fresh food, you are best buying
only what you are likely to use within a few months.

products. It is the responsibility of the customer to
