FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are answers to some of the questions we are asked most often about Medna.Shop, our products, workshops, orders and business opportunities.


Orders & Products

Where does Medna.Shop ship?

We ship to the countries and destinations available at checkout. Delivery availability may vary depending on the product, destination and fulfilment location.

For more information, please see our Shipping Policy.

Will all items in my order arrive together?

Not necessarily. We work with multiple warehouses and fulfilment locations across the European Union and the United Kingdom.

If your order contains products from different locations, the items may be sent in separate parcels and may arrive at different times.

You may also receive more than one tracking number.

Why did I receive only part of my order?

Your order may have been split into separate shipments.

Please check your shipping confirmation and tracking information first. If an expected parcel does not arrive within the expected delivery period, contact us and we will investigate.

How long will my order take to arrive?

Delivery times depend on the product, fulfilment location, destination and delivery service.

Standard products that are in stock will normally be dispatched within the timeframe shown on the product page or at checkout.

Custom products may take longer because they may require formulation, production, curing, packaging and other preparation before dispatch.

For full information, please see our Shipping Policy.

Can products be shipped from outside the EU?

Yes. Some products may be manufactured, produced or fulfilled from locations outside the European Union.

These products may take longer to arrive because of international transportation, customs clearance, import procedures and other factors.

Will I have to pay customs or import charges?

International shipments may be subject to customs procedures, import requirements, taxes, duties or other charges depending on the destination and circumstances.

Where applicable, relevant information will be provided before purchase.


Returns & Refunds

Can I return something I bought online?

Where the statutory right of withdrawal applies, EU consumers generally have 14 days to withdraw from an online purchase without giving a reason.

There are legal exceptions for certain products, including certain personalised products and certain sealed products once opened.

For the full details, please see our Returns & Refund Policy.

How do I start a return?

Contact us at info@medna.shop before physically sending the product back.

We will provide the appropriate return instructions and return address for your particular order.

Please do not send a return to our registered company address unless we specifically instruct you to do so.

Can I return a custom or private-label product?

Custom and clearly personalised products generally do not have the standard 14-day right of withdrawal.

However, your statutory rights remain protected if a product is defective, unsafe or does not conform to what was agreed.

See our Returns & Refund Policy for more information.

What if my product arrives damaged?

Contact us as soon as reasonably possible and provide your order number and, where possible, photographs of the product and packaging.

Please keep the product and packaging until the matter has been investigated.

What if I receive the wrong product?

Contact us before returning it. We will provide the appropriate return instructions and arrange a suitable solution.

When will I receive my refund?

Refunds are processed in accordance with applicable law.

For statutory withdrawals, we may wait until the returned goods have been received or you provide evidence that they have been sent back, where permitted by law.

For more information, see our Returns & Refund Policy.


Custom & Private-Label Products

Do you make custom soaps?

Yes. We can discuss custom soap projects for individuals and businesses.

Depending on the project, customisation may include essential oils, botanicals and other agreed ingredients.

Can I provide my own ingredients?

You can discuss supplying your own ingredients for a custom project.

All customer-supplied ingredients must be discussed and approved by Medna.Shop before they are sent or used.

We may decline ingredients that are unsuitable for the intended product, formulation, safety requirements or applicable regulations.

How much does a custom soap cost?

Custom products are quoted individually.

The price may depend on the ingredients, formulation, production and making fees, packaging, labelling, curing time and shipping.

How long does a custom soap take?

Custom soaps can take longer than standard products because the process may include formulation, production, curing, packaging and shipping.

The required curing time will be considered when we provide an estimated timeframe.

What is white label?

White label generally means an existing product that can be supplied for sale under your own brand, subject to the product, packaging and project requirements.

Availability and minimum quantities may vary by product.

What is private label?

Private label is for businesses looking for products prepared specifically for their brand and requirements.

Depending on the project, this may involve agreed product specifications, ingredients or formulations, packaging, branding and labelling.
