1 · You order

It starts with a click

Choose from the collection or build your own butters. Your bag shows your exact dates before you pay.

2 · Your date is set

Your ship date, on the calendar

Order by a cycle date and your jar ships on the next one: by the 1st for the 10th, by the 10th for the 20th, by the 20th for the 1st.

3 · Formulation begins

Weighed for your jar

When the cycle begins we weigh your plant butters, honey and oils by hand, gram by gram.

4 · Whipped

Whipped in small batches

Each batch is whipped soft and light, then rested so it sets just right.

5 · Packed

Filled, labeled and boxed

Filled into amber glass, sealed, labeled and wrapped by hand, then boxed for the post.

6 · At your door

From our hands to yours

Your parcel leaves on the cycle date and arrives a few days later. Express orders leave ahead of the cycle.

Made to order, all of it

Every product travels the cycle

The Formulation Cycle is how everything we make reaches you. Whatever you order, it is formulated after you order it and ships on the next cycle date.

  • Body butters and creams

    Whipped to order in their cycle, rested so they set right, then filled and labeled by hand.

  • Toners and serums

    Blended fresh for the same cycle. Nothing sits on a shelf waiting for you.

  • Your own formulations

    Every Build Your Own Butters jar is made to your recipe and travels the same cycle as the collection.

How the cycle works

The same three dates, every month

Orders are gathered into formulation cycles that ship on the 1st, 10th, 20th of each month. Order by the 1st to ship the 10th, by the 10th to ship the 20th, and by the 20th to ship the 1st. Your bag always shows your exact dates before you pay.

  • Order after a cutoff and your jar simply joins the next cycle.
  • Express shipping (+$10) is prepared ahead of the cycle and ships within 3 business days. Express is not offered on pre-orders.
  • Ship dates are the day your order leaves us. Arrival depends on the carrier and your address.
  • Cutoffs follow New York time.
  • Everything in one bag is prepared together and ships in one parcel on the latest eligible cycle for the items in it.

Launched

The Formulation Cycle began Sunday, October 11.

Anything ordered before Sunday, October 11 is a pre-order and ships Tuesday, October 20. From then on, every order joins the next cycle.

The cycle, in motion

One month, three cycles

Watch an order move through the month: it lands, waits for its cutoff, goes into formulation, and ships on the cycle date. The third pass shows an express order prepared ahead of the cycle.
