🌿 Sun-Kissed Botanicals | Frequently Asked Questions
About Our Products
Q: How are your products made?
Each Sun-Kissed Botanicals product is crafted in small batches, honoring traditional herbal methods while infusing each creation with intention and positive energy. I work with organic and sustainably wildcrafted herbs, preserving their vitality and full spectrum of plant constituents. This hands-on, heart-centered approach ensures every remedy carries both the physical and energetic benefits of the plants and the spirit of the land from which they come.
Q: What does “small-batch” mean?
At Sun-Kissed Botanicals, “small batch” means every formula is created with intention and artistry. Each blend is handcrafted in quantities that allow for full attention to detail — ensuring every bottle feels fresh, vibrant, and deeply cared for. Our small-batch approach reflects quality over quantity, bringing a sense of refinement and connection to nature’s abundance.
Q: Where are your products made?
All Sun-Kissed Botanicals remedies are handcrafted in Hawai‘i with aloha. My work is guided by the rhythms of nature and the wisdom I first learned studying herbalism in the Finger Lakes region of New York.
Using Our Products
Q: How do I know which product is right for me?
Each product description highlights its herbal and energetic focus. Trust your intuition; often the plants we’re drawn to are the ones our bodies most need. You can also visit the blog for educational posts about plant energetics and traditional uses.
Q: Why is there sediment in my tincture or tonic?
Sediment is a natural part of whole-plant herbal preparations. Certain herbs contain inulin, a prebiotic plant fiber found in dandelion root, burdock root, and chicory root. Inulin supports healthy gut flora and may settle at the bottom of your bottle; simply shake gently before use.
Q: Are your products safe for children?
My Family Essentials collection is created with gentleness in mind. If you’re considering any of my products for a child, please consult your healthcare provider.
Q: What if I’m pregnant or nursing?
If you are pregnant or nursing, please consult with your healthcare provider before using any herbal product. I’m happy to provide a complete ingredient list for you to share with them.
Q: Can I take herbal products with prescription medications?
Consult your healthcare provider before combining herbs with prescription medications, as some herbs can interact with certain drugs. I’m happy to provide full ingredient lists for your provider’s review.
Q: How should I store my herbal products?
Store your products in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight. Tinctures and essences have a long shelf life when stored properly. Salves and creams may benefit from refrigeration in warm climates.
Ordering & Shipping
Q: How long will my order take to ship?
Most orders are processed within 3–5 business days. Each item is poured, labeled, and packaged with care before it leaves my apothecary.
Q: Do you ship outside of Hawai‘i?
Yes. Sun-Kissed Botanicals ships throughout the United States.
Due to high shipping costs from Hawai‘i, I mail using USPS Medium or Large Flat Rate Boxes whenever possible, as this is the most reliable and cost-effective way to ship to the mainland.
Q: Do you offer international shipping?
Not at this time, but I’m happy to discuss possible arrangements on a case-by-case basis.
Q: Do you offer wholesale?
Yes. A limited selection of Sun-Kissed Botanicals products is available for wholesale on a case-by-case basis. If you are interested in carrying our products, please reach out to support@sunkissedbotanicals.com with a brief introduction, your business name, and the products you’re interested in. Wholesale availability, minimums, and timelines vary depending on the product and current inventory.
Quality & Integrity
Q: Do you make medical claims?
No. Herbal products support the body’s natural balance and vitality but are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent disease. My work centers on education, energy awareness, and reconnection with the wisdom of nature.
Q: How long do your products last?
Tinctures and essences often last several years when stored properly. Salves and balms typically remain fresh for about a year, depending on temperature and exposure to light.
Q: What makes Sun-Kissed Botanicals different?
Each formula is created with both the physical and energetic qualities of the plants in mind. My approach blends science with intuition, combining formal training, years of experience, and a deep reverence for the natural world.
Returns & Support
Q: What is your return policy?
Due to the handcrafted nature of my products, I cannot accept returns on opened items. However, if your order arrives damaged or incorrect, please contact me within 7 days of delivery and I’ll make it right.
