Q: Are your products available in salons or stores?
A: Yes, for a listing, please click here. Because we are not a mass manufacturer, we are only able to supply about 2 dozen vendors in major metropolitan areas. We do not supply webshops.

Do you ship overseas?
A: Yes. We ship worldwide to most countries. If your country is not on our list, let us know and we will add it. Select products can also be purchased through www.Mariposa-Import.com which is based in the Netherlands.

Q.
Why are some products discontinued?
A. 1. The necessary supplies have been discontinued by the manufacturer or reseller and a similarly priced replacement of equal quality cannot be found or does not meet storage requirements.
2. It is no longer cost effective to manufacture at existing retail rates due to increases in supplier pricing or shipping costs.
3. The product did not meet sales expectations.

Q: What is the difference between natural and vegan?
A: Vegan simply means that a product contains no animal or animal by-products. Honey and beeswax for example, are considered animal by-products and are therefore, not vegan.

Q: Why isn't my jar/bottle filled to the rim?
A: Our 8 oz. jars and bottles have a 9-10 oz. rim or overflow capacity so expect 1/4 to 1/2 inch of space between the product and the container rim. Jars and bottles will occasionally be overfilled so some will contain 9-10 oz. of product but 8 oz. should be the expected amount. Four ounce jars have a 5 ounce rim/overflow capacity. Products marked 5 oz. will be filled to the rim, products marked 4 oz. will be filled to 4 fluid ounces. Our new solid white sample jars have a 2 oz. rim capacity and so are filled to the rim.
 
Q: Why is this product lighter/darker than the last one I received?
A: Artificial dyes and color masking agents are not used in our products. The products obtain their tint and color from the natural herbs and oils used which may vary from batch to batch.
 
Q: Why is this product slightly thinner/thicker than the last one I received?
A: QB products are made fresh using natural oils, butters and emulsifiers so slight differences in texture from batch to batch may occur. This will not affect performance. A thinner batch will thicken over time as is the nature of certain emulsion systems.
