How It Works

On your first order, choose the "New Jar" or "New Bottle" option.

Your order will be shipped or delivered to you with minimal, reused, packaging. Always plastic-free and carbon neutral.

When you're running low, place another order using the "Refill Jar" or "Refill Bottle" option. Or choose the Subscribe + Save option to have refills automatically delivered on your schedule.

On delivery day, leave your empties on your porch. We'll grab them when we drop off your new order.

We'll ship or deliver your refill to you without any pumps or sprays - just a cap. Transfer any pumps or sprays from your old bottle to the new one, and transfer the refill lid to the old bottle.

Pack your empty bottle or jar into the box your refill arrived in. Place the included return label on the box, fully covering the existing label, and hand it off to USPS to come back to us - at no charge to you
