About Crushed Botanicals Apothecary

Crushed Botanicals Apothecary offers handcrafted herbal, botanical, skincare, personal-care, and wellness products.

Our products are made in small batches using natural ingredients. Natural variations in color, scent, texture, appearance, and consistency may occur from batch to batch.

Product Information

We make reasonable efforts to provide accurate product descriptions, photographs, ingredients, pricing, sizes, directions, and other information.

Because our products are handcrafted with natural ingredients, the appearance, color, scent, texture, or consistency of a product may vary slightly between batches.

We reserve the right to modify product formulas, ingredients, packaging, sizes, pricing, availability, or descriptions when necessary.

Customers are responsible for reviewing the current ingredient list, directions, precautions, and warnings before purchasing or using a product.

Herbal & Wellness Information

Information provided on this website regarding herbs, botanicals, mushrooms, essential oils, vitamins, minerals, and other ingredients is provided for educational and informational purposes only.

Statements regarding our products have not been evaluated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration unless specifically stated otherwise.

Our products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

Information on this website should not be interpreted as medical advice or as a substitute for advice, diagnosis, or treatment from a qualified healthcare professional.

Please review our Herbal & Product Disclaimer for additional information.

Medications, Pregnancy & Medical Conditions

Herbs and botanical ingredients may interact with prescription medications, over-the-counter medications, supplements, or certain medical conditions.

If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, trying to conceive, taking medication, preparing for surgery, or have a medical condition, consult an appropriate qualified healthcare professional before using herbal products.

Terms such as Medication-Conscious, Pregnancy-Conscious, or similar descriptions do not constitute a guarantee that a product is appropriate for every individual, medication, pregnancy, or medical condition.

Individual Results

Individual experiences with herbal, botanical, skincare, and wellness products vary.

Crushed Botanicals Apothecary does not guarantee that any product will produce a specific result for every customer.

Customer reviews, testimonials, traditional herbal uses, or individual experiences should not be interpreted as guarantees of results.

Allergies & Sensitivities

Customers are responsible for reviewing product ingredients before purchasing or using our products.

Natural ingredients can cause allergic reactions or sensitivities in some individuals.

We recommend performing a patch test before widespread use of topical products, particularly if you have sensitive skin or known allergies.

Discontinue use if irritation or an unexpected reaction occurs and seek appropriate medical care when necessary.

Returns & Refunds

Due to the personal-use, cosmetic, herbal, and consumable nature of many of our products, all sales are generally final.

Please review that policy before placing an order.

Heat-Sensitive & Natural Products

Certain products, including tallow products, salves, balms, body butters, oils, and other naturally formulated items, may soften or melt when exposed to warm temperatures.

A change in texture caused by temperature exposure does not automatically mean that a product is damaged or defective.

Natural products may also vary slightly in scent, color, appearance, or consistency.

Customers should follow storage instructions provided with individual products.

Proper Product Use

Products should only be used according to their directions.

Products labeled for external use only must not be ingested.
