Warm Weather Shipping
NOTE: Due to the heat sensitivity of many of our natural products, when transit routes or destination temperatures are over 74 degrees F, orders will be shipped in additional insulated packaging to protect these products from the heat. Additionally, we will only ship these orders on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday so your order will not be in transit over the weekend. However, these additional methods may not prevent against melting during shipping. Be advised during specific times of the year, in certain climates, we may not be able to ship. We may refund your order, suggest a comparable product, or ship at a later date. You will be notified of these options via email or phone.
For Whipped Butters:
On warm/hot days, it is best to refrigerate BEFORE opening the jars or tins. If you open the items, especially those in jars, to verify if melting has occurred, the contents may spill out. The quality and healing properties of our products are not affected by melting.
A remedy for melted whipped products: Place the container in the refrigerator. The melting will not affect the quality of the whipped butter as a great moisturizer, but the whipped consistency will change. Whipping adds tiny air bubbles (like whipped cream) that increase the size, lighten the density, and change the texture, making the butter light and fluffy. If a whipped product melts, the air bubbles are collapsed, so the volume is decreased. The container may actually look half full and the product will become more like a body balm.
