Summer Shipping

There are a lot of great skincare brands to choose from, and you picked us...what an honor! Thank you so much! 

Good news about our products is that they are all very low PUFA. That means the hot summer sun will not degrade and oxidize the fats and oils used in our skincare products - and they will remain healthy and stable thanks to their high saturated fatty acid content. 

The crappy news about summer shipping is that some of your products may melt or become soft depending how hot it is where you live. 

Again, this will not have a negative impact on your products from us. 

Before you open your products, please place them in your refrigerator for 1-2 hours. This is important for two reasons; first, you don't want to risk opening a melted product and having it spill. Butters/oils will stain clothes and furniture. Second, when saturated butters melt and re cool to room temperature you risk the fatty acids crystallizing during their cool down. This will make the product feel gritty and although it doesn't impact the formula at all, it's an unpleasant experience to have to melt down gritty butters onto your skin. If you place the product in the fridge, a fast cool down will prevent the butters from going gritty. 

Once removed from fridge give them time to return to room temp before using. Cold butters will be hard and not spreadable. 

Sorry for the extra steps...manufactured skincare doesn't have these issues because they have so many synthetic stabilizing ingredients. 

Hope you love your Kossma Beauty products!
