Terms of Service
Last Updated: September 2026
Welcome to Powerful Essence. By visiting our website, purchasing our products, or otherwise using our services, you agree to the following Terms of Service. Please read these terms carefully before placing an order.
Throughout these Terms, “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Powerful Essence.
Our Products
Powerful Essence creates handmade soaps, candles, bath products, home products, gift sets, and other small batch goods.
Because many of our products are handmade in small batches, slight variations in colour, appearance, scent, texture, weight, or finish may occur. These variations are a natural part of handmade products and do not affect their intended use.
We make every effort to accurately display and describe our products. However, colours and appearances may vary depending on your device or screen settings.
Product Availability
All products are subject to availability. Some products may be seasonal, limited edition, or produced in small quantities.
We reserve the right to discontinue products, adjust product availability, limit quantities, or make changes to our product offerings at any time.
Pricing and Payment
All prices are listed in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated.
Prices are subject to change without notice. Applicable taxes, shipping charges, and other fees will be displayed at checkout when applicable.
Payment must be successfully completed before an order can be processed.
We reserve the right to cancel or refuse an order if we believe there has been a pricing error, payment issue, suspected fraudulent activity, or other reasonable concern with the transaction.
Orders
By placing an order, you confirm that the information you provide, including your name, billing information, shipping address, and contact information, is accurate and complete.
Submitting an order does not guarantee acceptance. We reserve the right to cancel or decline an order when reasonably necessary. If payment has already been collected for an order we are unable to fulfill, the applicable amount will be refunded.
Shipping and Delivery
Shipping timelines and processing information are outlined in our Shipping Policy.
Estimated delivery dates are not guaranteed. Powerful Essence is not responsible for carrier delays, weather related disruptions, service interruptions, or other circumstances outside of our reasonable control.
Customers are responsible for providing an accurate and complete shipping address at checkout.
Returns, Refunds and Cancellations
Returns, exchanges, refunds, and order cancellations are subject to our applicable store policies.
Due to the personal nature of certain bath, body, and self care products, some items may not be eligible for return once opened or used, except where required by applicable law.
If an item arrives damaged or there is an issue with your order, please contact us as soon as possible so we can review the situation.
Allergies and Sensitivities
Ingredient information is provided to help customers make informed purchasing decisions.
Customers are responsible for reviewing product ingredients before use, particularly if they have known allergies, sensitivities, or skin concerns.
We recommend discontinuing use of any product if irritation or an unexpected reaction occurs.
Powerful Essence products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any medical condition. Information provided through our website, product descriptions, packaging, or social media is for general informational purposes and is not a substitute for professional medical advice.
Proper Product Use
Customers are responsible for using products according to the instructions, warnings, and intended uses provided.
Candles should never be left burning unattended and should be kept away from children, pets, drafts, and flammable materials. Customers are responsible for following all candle care and safety instructions provided with their product.
Soaps, bath products, and other body products should be used only as directed.
