About Twinkle Apothecary

The DIY option 

Need a boost for your Twinkle cleanser base? You're in the right place! 

These full size bottles of the pore-refining and exfoliating boosts are for customizing your cleanser at home. Purchase the boosts pre-mixed into your cleanser here, on the cleanser page. 

How you use it 

After removing your makeup, dampen your skin and sprinkle about 1-2 teaspoons of cleanser into the palm of your hand, (or a bowl if you’re feeling fancy!) adding a dash (about 1/8-1/4 teaspoon) of either the pore refining or exfoliating boost.

Most nights (or mornings!) you can turn on the tap at the sink and use your free hand to sprinkle the powder with a bit of warm water, mixing it with your fingers to make a paste to your liking. But sometimes you might like to experiment with adding another liquid - like a splash of toner or hydrosol, coconut milk, a cooled herbal tea - whatever you think your skin will love! Once the cleanser mixture is spreadable, gently massage it over your face using circular motions, just like you used to do with your old store bought face wash. 

From there, you can rinse it off right away if you’re in a hurry, or let it sit on your face like a mask while you brush and floss your teeth, rinsing it off as soon as it’s dry. Always follow with toner or hydrosol to rebalance your skin’s pH and ensure your pores are sparkling clean, then a few drops of oil (and/or butter) to replenish moisture and repair any damage done throughout the day. 

100% botanical ingredients 

Pore refining boost: Matcha green tea powder, activated charcoal, and pink kaolin clay draw impurities from your pores while revitalizing your skin. 

Exfoliating boost: Rice flour, coconut milk, and rosehip seed powder gently polish and promote cell-turnover without damaging your skin. 

Eco packaging options 

Sample: contains about 1 tablespoon of product - enough for about a dozen tries - and is packaged in a wax paper envelope. 

Full-size glass bottle (2 oz size):  contains about 1/4 cup of product, approximately 1 ounce by weight.

I love it!

I love your products. I’ve used plant based oils on my skin for years due to sensitivity and realizing corporations don’t actually care about my skin but have struggled to figure out a good cleansing routine, aside from using soap every few days and sometimes making my own exfoliant. I recently made a tallow based butter (with shea butter and herb infused oil) that my skin loves but I needed a gentle cleanser and exfoliant to help clear buildup. Your cleansers are natural, and delicate enough for my face. After using the oatmeal cleanser nightly for about two weeks now and the exfoliant and pore refiner here and there, my skin feels calm, smooth and is glowing and I’m not having anymore acne breakouts. I also tried oil cleansing several times before your cleanser with a steamy wash cloth, which is initially how I found your website. I’m really enjoying it. Thank you for making simple products that are nourishing for my skin. Thank you for making great products!

Wow, this is so great to hear! I'm so happy to provide a cleanser that pairs well with your own handmade creations. Thanks so much for sharing such an awesome review!

Subscriptions

Boxes: The Surprise Scent Monthly and Off the Menu subscriptions work the same way. To sign up, place your order by the 14th of each month by 12 pm US central time. The boxes (or envelopes) will ship on the 15th, or next business day if the 15th falls on a weekend or holiday.

Ordering after the 14th at noon puts you on the list for the next month's box.

Example: To sign up for a January Subscription box, you can order anytime between December 14th at 12:00 pm - January 14th at 11:59 am.

Ordering on January 14th at 12:00 pm or after will sign you up for the February box.

What's in the next box: The next month's Off the Menu item and a hint for the upcoming Surprise Scent will be revealed on the respective product pages after the 14th at noon each month. Be sure to check the product pages on the afternoon of the 14th to see what's in the next month's box, especially if you are not subscribed to my email list or push notifications!

You will always be charged for the next month's box each month on the same day (and exact time) that you placed your original order. If you would like to cancel or skip a month, you'll need to do so before your charge date. If you are not able to cancel before you're charged, simply email me to be refunded any time before I make the products on the afternoon of the 14th.

If you sign up for multiple subscription boxes (fun!) I will ship them all together to you on the 15th and refund any excess shipping fees.

For regular subscribe-and-save recurring product orders: your item will ship within 1-5 business days from the time you place your order.

Split-shipment policy: If you are ordering other, non-subscription items at the same time as your subscription box (Off the Menu, Surprise Scent, Collect Them All Club,) and you would like to receive your non-subscription items before the 15th, please place a separate order. I can only double-ship your order if the other items in your order qualify for free shipping on their own. If you've ordered enough to qualify for free shipping but want me to hold the other items to ship at the same time as your subscription products, great! Feel free to leave a note with your order and let me know!

All subscriptions are self-service.

How to cancel: You may cancel your order any time before your next charge date by logging into your account and clicking on the "My Subscriptions" button. If you are unable to cancel before you're charged, please email me to be refunded ASAP, before I make and ship your product. I cannot refund products that have already been made and/or shipped.

How to edit: To cancel, pause, switch items, add additional products, notes, or coupons to your subscription orders and to edit your subscription shipping address, simply log into your account and click on the "My Subscriptions" button. The process for editing your recurring order in the portal is so easy! If you are unable to access your account for any reason, please email me and I'm happy to help.

If you move: you are responsible for updating your shipping address before your next charge date. Orders shipped to the wrong address will not be refunded or replaced. I am happy to help you update your address, but you will need to email me before your order ships!

PLEASE NOTE: Updating your subscription order address is a SEPARATE ACTION from updating the default address on your Twinkle customer account. Update both to make sure you get your order. The subscription order address can be edited in the subscription portal (accessed by clicking on the "my subscriptions" button.)
