Frequently Asked Questions

General Information

Ethics of Floracopeia

Floracopeia was built on ethics -- they make up the core values of our company. Our strong ecological commitments were set by our Owner/Founder David Crow, and the rest of our team, and have become the driving force behind everything we do. We go to great lengths to make sure that everything down to the sourcing of the plant materials that are then distilled to create these wonderful essential oils are done so ethically and humanely with sustainability always in mind. We have built this company through strong relationships with our source distillers to ensure the quality and humanity behind each part of our manufacturing and sourcing.

We also find it important to help and develop organizations that fit within our ethics, like our Ecuador Palo Santo Project or the Women's Co-Op that produces Argan Oil from Morocco. We believe in providing quality essential oils that are completely pure, unadulterated, and ethically sourced, with the environment and sustainability in mind. We do not test anything on animals ever. I hope this helps to answer your questions about our quality and ethical point of view.

bottle sizes

How can I try your products?

We most definitely have testers available for the majority of our oils. We believe that providing sample testers is beneficial by permitting our customers to perform an early assessment of our product before committing to a full size purchase. However, because of the high value nature of these products, we are not able to offer free samples.

You can find the tester size of each oil for purchase by clicking on the "Trial Sizes" option in our Essential Oil Menu.

Additionally, you can check our Store Locations Map for a resale location near you.

If you need help selecting oils to try, please email us at support@floracopeia.com.

How do I get a drop of essential oil out of the bottle?

The orifice reducers on our bottles are meant to protect our precious oils from exposure to the air and leaking out of the bottle, while also allowing you to remove a controlled amount drop by drop. The best way to get a measured drop out of our bottles is to hold a bottle between your thumb and middle finger upside down. Gently tap the bottom of the bottle with your pointer finger. A measured drop will come out.  If you need to measure more precisely, we recommend using a scissor to remove the reducer by placing one end into the hole and gently levering to the side and up, then using a pipette to measure out mL increments.

Body and Skin Care

Do my beauty products have a shelf life?

Our skin care line is 100% natural and contains no chemical preservatives. As such, the products should be treated carefully and not exposed to high heat, direct sunlight, or compromising conditions. If stored correctly, our Skincare products should have a regular shelf life of 12 months, unless otherwise noted. Products may be refrigerated to extend their shelf life, however, this may cause separation in some products.

How do I store my skin care products?

Our skin care line is 100% natural and contains no chemical preservatives. As such, the products should be treated carefully and not exposed to high heat, direct sunlight, or compromising conditions. It is best to store these products in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight. Products may also be refrigerated to extend the shelf life, but please be advised that this may cause separation in some products.

Diffusers

Troubleshooting your Diffuser

Here are some basic diffuser troubleshooting techniques:

First, make sure that you are using it on a flat, hard, level surface and that nothing is blocking the fan vent on the bottom of the diffuser. Also, unplug the power cord from the unit, then plug it back in. Second, you want to make sure that the appropriate amount of water is being used. Fill the diffuser with water up to just below the max fill line. Then check the device by pressing the power button.

It's also important to regularly clean the device to prevent any oil residue from building up inside the device. It may be helpful to use a small amount of white vinegar with the cleaning brush or a cotton swab, and cleaning the inner basin. Pay special attention to the small circular ceramic disc in the center of the inner basin of the device, as this is where the water and oil is diffused.

Essential Oils

Are Your Oils Organic?

Our essential oils fall into 3 categories; certified organic, organic (non-certified) or wild-crafted. The wild-harvested oils are not cultivated and therefore ineligible for certification. We only order from distillers who wild harvest from "clean,” unsprayed areas. We order directly from small farms and distilleries in rural areas where sometimes the services to certify an oil as organic are not available. We rely on our relationship with the distiller and knowledge of their good practices to ensure that the product is grown organically.

Are your oils Therapeutic Grade?

You are absolutely right to do your research, as there is a lot of opportunity for adulterated and sub-par product out there on the world market. Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade is a marketing term that has been coined by another company in the industry. This term does not represent a quality that is any way tested or approved by any nationally recognized body or governance. We believe in standing behind the quality and purity of our oils without using marketing labels, and so we have decided not to use this term.

We appreciate your interest in our oils. We are quite proud of our product and want all of our customers to understand our dedication to ensuring that we provide only the best!

How are your oils made?

Most of our oils are steam distilled. Others are pressed (such as our citrus oils). Certain plants such as jasmine cannot be steam distilled, and those are extracted with food-grade hexane. For those extracts, there is no hexane present in the final product. The plants are grown around the world using zero chemicals, either on a plantation or wild harvested. The oils are pure and have no impurities or adulterants.

Quality Control

Thank you so much for considering Floracopeia. It is incredibly important to research and find quality products in today's world.

Unfortunately, we are a small company and don't have the means of testing our own oils. We'd like to establish our own testing, but until we grow to that point, we have several ways of ensuring that what is in our bottles is exactly what it's supposed to be -- pure essential oil of the highest quality!

First, almost all of our suppliers are able to supply us with their own tests. We do have some distillers who are too small to do their own testing, but it is generally easier for the distillers, as they are working with large batches that will last a long time. We are generally purchasing only small batches to last us around 3 months at a time. We have absolute confidence in the test results that our distillers provide.

On occasion, we have sent out samples to be tested by an independent French laboratory, but with the size of our company, we can't do that with every batch. You may GCM reports on those oils that we've tested at the bottom of the product pages.  Please note that we switched website platforms in June of 2021 and may still be working on getting these updated.  You may contact customer service at support@floracopeia.com if you wish to see specific reports that are not yet up on the product pages.

How do I get copies of MSDS-GCM Reports

We do have MSDS and GCM documentation available for many of our oils. Available reports are found at the bottom of the  item's product page. You may also email us a request for any specific oil's documentation at: support@floracopeia.com.

While testing oils in a lab can provide some security in the quality of an oil, we ensure quality even more reliably through personal connection and direct sourcing. We do not source from middlemen or the global market.

Instead, Floracopeia's founder, David Crow, buys directly from small scale "mom and pop" sized producers, often flying across the globe to personally vet the source before we commit to a purchase.

My Oils Are Solid!

A few oils, such as Geranium and Neem, solidify in colder temperatures. If you keep the lid on the bottle and submerge it in some warm water for 5 to 10 minutes, it should soften back up into a regular oil consistency. Alternatively, you can simply place the oil in your pocket to warm it up. 10 minutes in your pocket, and your body heat should warm up the oil enough to liquify.

Internal Use of Oils

There are several reasons why we can not recommend essential oils, in general, for internal use. FDA regulations state that promoting any substance as being safe for internal use suggests that it is a food, supplement or medication and essential oils have not been deemed any of these things. If a company is promoting oils as being safe for internal use, they are in violation of FDA regulations and are at risk of being sued, fined, or shut down. Our essential oils are highly concentrated, and some plants are not safe to take internally, so a higher concentrated amount of the volatile oil would be very unsafe. For example, one drop of an essential oil is the equivalent of 25-75 cups of the herbal tea of the same plant.

All of this being said, our oils fall into three categories; certified organic, organic(non-certified) or wild-crafted. All of our oils are completely unadulterated and free of chemicals. The wild-harvested oils can't be organically certified, as they are not cultivated. We do order from distillers who wild harvest from "clean,” un-sprayed areas. We have a small selection of oils that are grown organically but don't have organic certification, because they come from a very small farm and distillery in a rural area where the services to certify an oil as organic are not available. In those cases, we rely on our relationship with the distiller and knowledge of their good practices to ensure that the product is grown organically. The product page of each oil will let you know how it is grown.

This is a very important article David Crow wrote on How to Use Essential Oils Effectively. You can view the entire article here.

Do not use essential oils internally:

There are two exceptions to this rule.

The first is properly administered dosages of essential oil medications prescribed by a licensed physician. This is now occurring in certain European clinics, but is rarely available in the US. People should avoid using essential oils internally if prescribed by a lay practitioner, especially if the practitioner’s education is primarily from a marketing perspective rather than clinical.

The second exception is biocompatible levels of essential oil ingestion when taken as part of the diet. A good example of this is oregano oil. Oregano oil is widely marketed for internal consumption, with numerous claims made about its therapeutic efficacy. In actual practice, the internal consumption of this oil frequently causes the typical symptoms associated with the ingestion of essential oils, such as extreme gastric hyperacidity. On the other hand, the use of oregano as a fresh herb, steamed at the end of food preparation, provides all the benefits of oregano oil at a biocompatible level, with none of the gastric dangers.

Should accidental ingestion of any significant amount of an essential oil occur, immediately call your local Poison Control Center. Do not induce vomiting. Do not give water if breathing or swallowing is difficult.

Here is the National Association of Aromatherapy’s stance on internal use of essential oils:

Can I take essential oils internally? I have heard that doctors in UK/FRANCE- (maybe other countries) do this, so why not in the US?

Firstly, it is only a very small minority of prescriptions made out by MDs in Europe which would necessarily involve the internal use of essential oils. Secondly, other methods of application may be preferable to internal use – depending on the condition presented. Internal dosing would be inappropriate, say, for a muscle strain, but an aromatherapist might certainly incorporate one into a massage of the affected area.

Internal use of essential oils might be medically appropriate for severe gastro-intestinal or respiratory infections, for otitis media (acute inner ear infection), or for other internal problems. If prescribed by an MD, the oils that are used may need to conform to pharmaceutical standards of quality (like conventional medicines) – and so hopefully be free of adulterants, heavy metals, pesticides, dioxins, polychlorinated biphenyls and other undesirable substances. In a perfect world, you would expect a qualified medical practitioner to be conversant with the full toxicological safety information for the essential oils, and to administer the appropriate doses under clinical supervision as required, to remedy the problem presented.

Some oils are associated with toxicity problems (e.g. a risk of accumulative effects), and so internal use is not entirely hazard or risk-free. It is also important to keep a more worldly view of these matters. For example Western aromatherapists are warned not to use Wormseed oil (from Chenopodium ambrosioides) because of its acute toxicity and skin sensitizing properties; the oil is banned IFRA (International Fragrance Research Association Code of Practice) and not permitted for use in the UK under the Medicines Order 1977. Yet in spite of the acute risks associated with its use, Wormseed oil plays an important role in health matters other nations, as a biocide in veterinary and ethnic medicine (as a helminthic agent: to expel worm infestations), especially those which cannot afford expensive pharmaceutical drugs.

What is the Shelf Life of my Essential Oils?

Shelf life of Essential Oils will vary widely.  Some oils, such as sandalwood, will only get better as they age.  Citrus oils tend to lose their potency after about 18 months, possibly sooner, depending on how they are stored.  Carrier oils and skin care products should be stored in cool, dark places and will also have shorter shelf lives.  A carrier oil that has gone rancid will smell similar to cooking oil that is old.  Our skincare products all have a "best by" date on them to ensure maximum freshness.  We order in small batches and bottle quickly to ensure your products have the maximum freshness when you purchase them from us.  Most essential oils that do have a shelf life, with the exception of citrus, have a fairly long shelf-life of up to 5 years.

Can I buy oils in bulk?

We don't currently sell our oils in bulk, although we do have a wholesale program available.

To learn more about our wholesale program you can visit our Wholesale Page here.

Flower Essences

Are your flower essences made in the Bach tradition?

Yes, essentially they are made in the Bach tradition but we only used the sun method not the boiling method. Our flower essences are never heated.

Flower Essence Use and Info - The Basics

A flower essence is a spring water infusion of flowers. It's an energetic remedy that contains the Qi or Life force of a flower captured by water. Flower essences work directly on our energetic system such as the acupuncture meridians to support wellbeing of body, mind and spirit. Primarily, they are used to address concerns involving the emotions and mind. Secondarily, they energetically support healthy physiological function. Flower essences address what Traditional Chinese Medicine calls Shen or Spirit which is considered our psychological health and wellbeing. We invite you to visit our flower essence product pages for specific examples of the therapeutics of each flower essence.

How are your flower essences made?

Our flower essences are made via sun infusion. We only used the sun method not the boiling method. Our flower essences are never heated.

What is the difference between Flower Essences and Tinctures?

A flower essence is the vibrational imprint of a flower that has been transferred and stabilized in water. They have no scent or flavor. Flower essences can help us recognize, resolve, or release different conditioned ways of perceiving the world and can help us experience greater well-being and harmony in our lives. A tincture is an alcoholic extract of the flowers of a plant. It has a flavor of the plant that was used in the process. Both are used in similar ways. You can put them into a glass of water or drop them directly onto the tongue.

How do I use the flower essences if I avoid alcohol?

One can bring the alcohol content down to less than .05% per 1/2 bottle through dilution.

To prepare your own dosage bottle: filled a 1/2 oz dropper bottle with 50% red shiso vinegar and 50% spring water. Add 2 drops of each flower essence desired.

Take 1-2 drops four times a day.

Incense & Resins

How to Burn Resin

We recommend using a traditional bowl burner, or any ceramic bowl, along with white ash and incense charcoal to burn your resin.  These can be purchased from many incense stores or on the web.  Please use traditional Japanese incense charcoal to ensure you are not using chemicals to burn your resins.  This is a slow, meditative way to burn your resins, as starting charcoal does take patience and time, as it doesn't have chemicals to assist in the burn.  You may also find electric incense burners in many places on the web, and these are a good option, especially for burning wood chips.

 

Ordering

Why are so many Items Out Of Stock?

Our website reflects the real time stock availability of all of our products. We occasionally run out of some of our products because we source our oils exclusively from cottage industry distillers. These distillers run into issues such as cultural/civil unrest, natural disasters, limited shipping options and other issues.

We are constantly working on new ways to keep these high demand products in stock and available but sometimes it is just not possible. We do update our site the moment a product is back in stock and available for purchase.

We do have a back in stock notification system in place. Simply log into your account and navigate to the item you are looking for. If it is out of stock, Click the "Notify Me When Available" link. This will add the out of stock item to your notifications list. The moment the item is back in stock we will email you, letting you know it is available for purchase.

If you need any more information or have any questions, feel free to email or call us. We are open from 10am to 5pm Pacific Time, Monday through Friday at support@floracopeia.com.

Please note that we also have several products that are only sold in limited quantities, which we bring in on a "special release" basis.  This has been a part of our our company tradition since David Crow founded Floracopeia, and reflects David's mission to bring extremely special, unique products to market.  The best way to find out about these special releases, which we try to announce about once per month, is to sign up to receive our Newsletter.

When will I be charged for my order?

We charge your order at the time that it is placed. Once an order is placed, we cannot add to or modify it without placing a separate order or creating a return authorization. Refunds can't be processed on the same day an order is placed, as it must pass through our credit card processor before we can modify the payment.  If you need help with anything else, feel free to give us a call or an email. We are open from 10am to 5pm Pacific Time, Monday through Friday.

Can I use more that one promo code on my order?

Sometimes. The ability to use a code in conjunction with another is determined on a case by case basis and largely depends on the nature of the promotion. If you need help determining if a promotion code is able to be applied alongside other codes, feel free email. We are open from 10am to 5pm Pacific Time, Monday through Friday. support@floracopeia.com

Shipping Information

Do You Ship Internationally?

We do ship internationally, and the pricing and time depends on the country and the quantity of items you are purchasing.

We ship USPS Priority International which is fine for either street addresses or PO Boxes.

You can get a shipping estimate by entering the desired items in your cart, click checkout at the upper right hand corner, then changing the country and postal code under Estimate Tax and Shipping.

Please Note: The recipient is considered the importer and may be subject to import taxes, duties and fees enforced by the destination country. We are unable to control or predict these charges. Customs policies vary widely from country to country; you should contact your local customs office for more information. When shipping overseas, customs clearance procedures can delay packages. If you refuse your package upon arrival, we will refund your order once it is returned back to us.

Why do Floracopeia's International Shipping Rates seem so high?

We understand that our international shipping rates may seem high. Unfortunately, we can only ship internationally via services that provide us with both insurance and tracking capabilities. The lowest cost method of shipping that we can do with these features is generally Priority Mail. We understand that this is an expensive method, but due to the fragility and usually high value of our product, it is company policy not to use less expensive, less secure shipping methods.

We are very sorry if this causes you inconvenience, but we are a small company and are unable to absorb the bulk of shipping charges that some online companies do in order to defray costs.

How do I find my International Order Tracking Number?

A tracking number will be emailed to you once your order has been fulfilled. Please allow 24 hours for tracking information to show on the carrier's website. If you have any trouble or questions please contact us at returns@floracopeia.com

My package was not delivered.

If you have purchased Floracopeia Package Protection, The easiest way to file a claim is to fill out our Claim Form. Otherwise, please conduct the following steps before reaching out.

The first step in tracking your order down would be to check around your residence for any area in which the package could have been delivered. Depending on the size of the package and the type of building you live in, there are multiple places to look. If you live in a house, please check around all entry ways (front, side, and back doors). If you live in an apartment building, please check around the mail room area as well as with your neighbors and/or apartment manager, doorman, or other building associate.

After you have done a thorough search for the package, the next step would be to contact your local Delivery Service's Office. Despite what tracking information says, the Delivery Service will sometimes have your package waiting at their warehouse or office without you knowing it.

If you are still not able to locate your package after contacting the Office, please contact us so that we can submit an investigation claim with the Delivery Service. After a claim has been created, we will then be able to discuss the options available to you regarding your order with us.

We apologize for the inconvenience and welcome any questions or concerns you may have. Please feel free to call or email us Monday through Friday from 10am to 5pm PST.

What shipping service(s) do you offer when I get Free Shipping?

The free shipping option you will see and select on check out is USPS Priority Mail.

How do I use a Gift Certificate?

The gift certificate code works differently than a promo code and is entered in a different location. In the payment portion of the checkout process, you will see a field where you can enter your gift certificate code under the credit card payment field. The gift certificate is used as a form of payment rather than a discount.  Please note that if you purchase a Gift Certificate and use an incorrect email address, we cannot change it.  We can give you the code and can also help you by creating a nice email to send to the recipient, but the original certificate delivery can't be changed.  Gift Certificates can't be purchased on the back end of our system and must be ordered via our website.

New Website Problems

We moved to a new website design on June 16th, 2021 and occasionally come across glitches that inevitably appear when moving to a new site.

When a bug is found, We work around the clock to resolve the bugs. Our site continues to improve over time. Thank you so much for your patience!

I am having Webcast Trouble

If you are having trouble playing a webcast, make sure your web browser is up to date, and you have and updated flash player installed. Our website and videos work best on the Firefox and Google Chrome web browsers.

If the video is slow to load, please make sure you pause or close any programs that are downloading files or doing anything else to take up your internet bandwidth. You can also pause the video itself to give it time to load - I would suggest letting it load for 5 minutes or more.

If you are still having trouble, feel free to email us at support@floracopeia.com. We are open Monday through Friday from 10am to 5pm Pacific Standard Time.
