WHERE IS MY PACKAGE?

Please allow 3-5 days for your order to be shipped and an addition 5-7 days for domestic mail to deliver it. If you’re international we’ll ship within 5-7 days and you can expect your order within 14-45 days after shipment depending on your country and customs delays. Ghost Poppy is not responsible for custom duties or taxes that may be charged for the release of your order.

I WAITED 5-7 DAYS AND I THINK MY PACKAGE IS LOST OR STOLEN.

Unfortunately, we do not have any more information than you do once an item is shipped. If there is a problem with your shipment, please contact your local post office and give them the tracking number.
Ghost Poppy is not responsible for stolen packages or any lost items that cannot have the insurance claimed (tracking labels that read "Delivered"). We are also not responsible for errors made by the Post Office. If your item is delayed past its "estimated arrival date" we apologize, but it is out of our control. We suggest filing a complaint with the USPS. A domestic package must be missing for 21 days with an incomplete tracking record before we can file an insurance claim and resend the order.

WHERE IS MY REFUND?

Please note that it can take up to 5 business days for the transaction to appear on your bank or credit card statement, and for the funds to be transferred. You will receive an email notifying you of the refund.

WHERE IS MY EXCHANGE?

Just like with our regular orders, all exchange orders take 5-7 business days to arrive. You will get a order confirmation email when your exchange order is placed and tracking information when it has shipped.

CAN I CANCEL MY ORDER?

Yes! You have until the next business day. Orders are processed the next business day, after the order has been processed we are unable to cancel your order.

ARE YOUR CANDLES ECO-FRIENDLY OR VEGAN?

Yes!
Our candles are made entirely with renewable resources and don’t include any animal products. The jars are glass, so they’re reusable and recyclable. The wicks are lead-free and made with cotton.
We use soy wax, which is non-petroleum product made from a renewable crop (soybeans). Our candles burn cleanly and slowly, with very little soot.

WHY DOES MY CANDLE LOOK FUNNY?

When your candle arrives it may have "frosty" white patches or slight discoloration. This is a result of temperature changes during shipping, and is a totally natural characteristic of soy wax. Luckily, it does not affect the burn or smell of your candle.

HOW DO I SAFELY BURN MY CANDLE?

Here are the main safety guidelines:
Trim the candle wick to 1/4”.Always burn within sight - do not leave unattended.
Keep away from pets, children and all flammable items.
Every time you light a candle, trim the wick to 1/4” and let it burn until the entire top is covered in a pool of wax.
This will help the candle burn evenly and cleanly.

MY CANDLE JAR IS EMPTY, WHAT DO I DO?

Upcycling empty jars into a cool planter, new candle, or pen holder. The best way to remove wax is to freeze it! Pop your candle into the freezer overnight and in the morning take a spoon and you will be able to easily "crack" the wax into pieces for easy removal. 

A PRODUCT I WANTED IS NOW OUT OF STOCK!

I BURNED MY CANDLE AND FOUND THE CRYSTAL. WHAT DO I DO NOW?

Yay you found the prize! The best way to clean the wax or oils off is to place the stone in hot or boiling water to remove the residue. Once the water is cooled you can remove the stone and dry it. Place the stones where ever you please, your garden, bookshelf, in a potted plant, wherever your heart desires!

MY ORDER CAME IN A CHEWY/AMAZON/ETC. BOX.

We save all shipping boxes that are sent to us if they are still in good condition. We reuse these boxes to send orders to customers. This keeps costs low for us and customers by not having to buy new boxes, and help keep waste low by keeping good boxes in circulation instead of using only new boxes. 

WHAT DO THE SCENT STRENGTH RATINGS MEAN?

The number of poppies or haunted houses determines the scents overall strength. On a scale of 1-4 with 4 being the strongest scent. 

1 Poppy= Very Light Scent, we do not carry any 1 rated scents

2 Poppies= Subtle Scent

3 Poppies= Moderate Scent

4 Poppies= Strong Scent

 

HOW LONG WILL MY PERFUME OIL LAST?

If worn everyday, they should last about 5-6 months. Our perfume oils have a shelf life of 1 year. 

WILL THE PERFUME OIL STAIN MY CLOTHES?

We spot tested fabric samples, let them sit for 8 hours and then washed them with regular laundry and found that all the stains washed out. We do recommend spot testing if you are concerned about possible staining. 

WHAT ARE YOUR PERFUME OILS MADE OF?

Our perfume oils are made from 100% organic sunflower oil and our fragrance oils. Sunflower oil should be safe for those with nut allergy, but we do recommend checking with an allergist before use if you have a severe nut allergy.
