ORDERING & SHIPPING

Which countries do you ship to?

We currently ship to Australia and New Zealand only. Australian orders go out via AusPost Express, and New Zealand orders via NZ Post.

How long does delivery take?

AusPost Express orders typically arrive within 2–5 business days. NZ Post orders typically arrive within 3–8 business days, depending on your location.

How much does shipping cost?

Shipping is calculated at checkout based on your delivery address once you've added items to your cart — enter your address on the shipping step to see the exact rate for AusPost Express or NZ Post.

Can I track my order?

Yes. Once your order ships, you'll receive a confirmation email with tracking details for AusPost or NZ Post.

PRODUCTS & PRICING

What sizes do your ingredients come in?

Most active ingredients are available in 3ml and 10ml amber dropper bottles — perfect for trialling a new active or mixing into a full-size serum base.

Can I see prices in New Zealand dollars?

Yes. Use the currency switcher in the header or footer to toggle between AUD and NZD — prices update instantly across the whole site.

Are your ingredients suitable for sensitive skin?

Many of our actives, like Hyaluronic Acid and Tranexamic Acid, are well tolerated by sensitive skin, but we always recommend a patch test 24–48 hours before adding any new active to your routine.

USING YOUR INGREDIENTS

How do I use these active ingredients?

Add a few drops of your chosen active into your serum base or moisturiser, mix well, and apply as part of your regular skincare routine. Check out our DIY Guides for ingredient-specific ratios.

Can I mix multiple actives together?

Some actives pair beautifully (like Hyaluronic Acid with almost anything), while others — such as strong acids and retinoids — are best used on alternate days. When in doubt, patch test and introduce one new active at a time.

How should I store my ingredients?

Keep bottles tightly capped, away from direct sunlight and heat. Our amber glass bottles help protect light-sensitive actives, and most ingredients are best used within 6 months of opening.

RETURNS & SUPPORT

What is your returns policy?

Due to the nature of our products, we're unable to accept returns on opened items. If your order arrives damaged or faulty, contact us within 7 days and we'll sort out a replacement.
