What methods of payment do you accept?

Do you ship outside of the US? (or to a specific country)

We do offer international shipping to the UK, Canada, Mexico and Australia. Costs may vary depending on where the products are being sent to except for Canada, in which case we offer a flat rate of 10 USD. You may also want to check if your country has any specific duties on imports. Sadly, shipping costs are beyond our control. International orders usually take 3-4 weeks to be delivered, depending on your location and customs process of each particular country. In some cases, it can take up to 6 weeks. Once the package arrives in your country, its delivery depends on local shipping, and unfortunately, there’s no tracking information for a few days.

How long will it take to get the order? How does it ship? How long will it take to ship to Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico?

For orders placed in the United States we are currently offering free shipping for orders over $50 and subscription orders. Orders under $50 ship for a flat rate of $4.99. For orders placed in Canada we offer a $10 flat rate (Import Duties not Included). We also ship to Australia, Mexico and United Kingdom using USPS First Class, the rate is calculated based on the destination. Orders are usually fulfilled within 1 to 2 business days, and shipments in the United States typically take between 5 and 8 days depending on your location. International orders may take longer depending on the customs process of each particular country.

We don't have control of which carrier will be shipping/delivering your products since it is our partnering shipping company, so if your address requires a specific carrier we unfortunately cannot process that request.
