Can I make changes to my order or add an item to my order once it has been submitted?

We work hard to help you get your orders as quickly as possible. As soon as the payment is accepted and the order is confirmed, it is immediately in process to be shipped. This means there is only a very small window of time where we can catch your order before it is shipped out. In order to expedite changes please email at info@nectaressences.com.

Do you offer additional samples or samples by mail?

We happily include 2 mini sized samples with every order that you make. Unfortunately, we do not offer additional samples requested in orders or send single samples by mail.

Do you ship internationally?

Yes, Nectar Essences has shipped to over 30 countries worldwide (you can put some items in your cart and use the checkout process to see if your country is available). If your country is not on the list or if you have ordered previously but your country is no longer on the list please contact info@nectaressences.com and we will try to accommodate your order.

Customs, Duties and Handling Fees

DHL:Orders shipped via DHL we will pay the relevant duties, customs fees and handling fees as part of the shipping cost. DHL is the sole shipping method to several countries including UK and Germany due to issues with items being withheld by customs or large fees.

USPS: USPS orders may be subject to import/value added taxes and customs duties/fees levied by the destination country. Additional charges for taxes and customs clearance must be borne by the recipient and in some cases are up to 20% of order value.

Unfortunately we are not able to alter the declared value of packages. In our experience these duties and fees are charged for orders shipped to UK, selected European countries, Canada as well as Australian orders over AU$1000.

Please also note that although we offer a 30 day satisfaction guarantee on our products where we will refund the cost of the products after we have received them back, we cannot cover the cost of return shipping which in some cases is significant. Please see above for returns policy.

Do you ship to military addresses?

Yes.

What are your international shipping methods and timeframes?

Products are shipped from our headquarters within 2-3 business days. Please write a note with your order if you need the order shipped faster. International packages are provided tracking information.

Orders shipped Priority International usually takes 6-14 business days for delivery after shipping. Express International orders will take 3-5 business days for delivery. Delays in customs add to these shipping times and we have had customers in South America and some areas of Europe where orders have taken several weeks to over a month for delivery.

For orders shipped to Canada, customers may choose USPS First-Class Mail, which is the most economical service but does not include tracking information. In selecting this service, the customer assumes liability for the package and will not be able to track the package once it has left Nectar Essences. If you prefer to track your package, please choose Priority International or Express International.

Will I be charged customs fees, duty or other taxes for international shipments?

Yes, this is likely. Any customs, duty or other taxes charged by your home country will need to be paid for by the recipient (i.e. you) before the package can be delivered or collected.

Do you observe eco-conscious practices when it comes to your product packaging?

We are committed to minimizing waste and lessening our impact on the environment.

We use glass bottles as these are recyclable and importantly are also non-reactive. We use synthetic labels because they must be water- and oil-proof; currently no other options meet these requirements. Packing is in biodegradable starch peanuts and we use post-consumer recycled boxes.
