WHY IS THE ITEM I WANT SHOWING ONLINE BUT IT IS NOT IN STOCK?

We produce our candles in batches. If an individual product sells out, it will return.

We are very sorry if the product you want has sold out or keeps selling out before you can get the chance to purchase it. It is difficult to predict how many units of each product reference we will need to make ahead of time and given the high demand for our products, its inevitable that we may sell out of products from time to time.

Furthermore we formulate, manufacture, assemble and send out everything by hand and in relatively small batches with each run. Naturally, this has many benefits however we do appreciate that it is annoying if a product you want is out of stock. You can always reserve a product by emailing us, which means your desired order will be reserved when the next production run is ready. We will keep you up to date with regards to the next release date and will ensure that your order is on its way to you as soon as possible. If you no longer wish to purchase your allocation, no worries! We will email you as soon as your reserved item is available and wait for 10 days for your response before releasing for general sale.

It would be amazing if we could predict how many units our customers may want to buy before we start production but sadly we don’t have a crystal ball! Our production time is long (4+ weeks) and our products are expensive to produce, so we make as much as we can afford and try our best to demonstrate when items are out of stock. If you contact us, we can give you estimates for when a fresh batch should be ready for purchase.

WHERE ARE YOUR GIFT CARDS?

Currently we do not sell HEROWN gift cards. If we have significant interest in selling them, we will absolutely make a gift card available for purchase. Tell us if you think this is a good idea at: hello@herownstore.com.

COOKIES, DO YOU USE THEM?

Yes, on our site www.herownstore.com we use cookies only to store necessary information. For more information regarding Cookies please click here.

CAN I SAMPLE HEROWN PRODUCTS BEFORE BUYING?

Currently, the only way to sample HEROWN products is through bric and mortar stockists, which we hope to build upon steadily. We have considered offering teeny-tiny sample size candles however these sizes don’t really function properly - the performance of a candle such as our standard size relies on the physicality of the product, the size of the candle and container are crucial to the performance and experience. We are actively thinking of ways for customer to sample our candles so as to better inform purchasing decisions.
