Shipping & returns

Eco-Friendly Practices

We are a small, woman-owned and run business operating out of a solar-powered facility in Southern Oregon. We also double as a used packaging drop-off site for local residents and businesses. We use 100% post-consumer recycled packaging, home compostable paint pouches and recyclable glass and aluminum bottles for our products.

We give back by donating to "One Tree Planted" and "Rogue Climate" every month and continue to donate to various humanitarian and environment causes throughout the year.

Generally, all orders are shipped using zero-waste packaging and materials. Our shipping department uses paper stuffing and biodegradable paper tape, with the exception of shipping glass, as noted in the product descriptions for products made of glass.

Return Policies

We offer full refunds on any defective or damaged products. We also offer full refunds (less shipping costs) on elective returns if the product is in re-sellable condition and the return has been made within 3 months of the purchase.

Orders containing in-stock items are typically processed within 2 business days from when we receive the order during operating hours. If a purchase contains out-of-stock or pre-order items, we will ship the order once ALL items are available and it can be fulfilled completely. Once an order is shipped, you will receive a confirmation email with tracking information; please save this email in case of any issues with your order.

After a package leaves our facility, it becomes the responsibility of the contracted carrier to get it to you. Any issues or problems that arise must be resolved with them directly. For USPS orders in particular, we've be instructed that it is best for the recipient to first speak with their local post office regarding any concerns.

Additionally, you can monitor your shipment or file a claim for lost mail with each of the carriers we use: U.S. Postal ServiceUPS, or FedEx.

We work hard to ensure orders are processed and received as quickly as possible, but unfortunately, we're unable to locate lost or delayed packages. We recognize errors happen and ask for your patience in those circumstances, but we will not ship replacement items or issue refunds until a formal determination is made by the carrier. Please use the resources outlined above to seek resolution if needed.

We normally ship USPS International for international orders, and the order typically takes 2-3 weeks for delivery.

Since we never know if a package will be held at customs, any import fees or taxes applied to the delivery must be paid by the recipient.

PRODUCT FAQs

Are these paints safe for children? 
The Natural Earth Paint is water-based and super easy to mix up and clean up with water. Used by adults and children for fun, easy crafts and art projects. I would recommend this paint for anyone that wants a quick, easy, non-toxic and natural paint to create with easy clean up with water.

How long do they last / are they permanent? 
It will gradually wear away if left in the elements (rain) because it's not waterproof. It won't technically fade but will just wear off eventually. However, if painted on a wall or painting, they will last indefinitely. 

How long does the paint last after mixed? 
The children’s paints in the Natural Earth Paint Kit are best used fresh. We recommend that you only mix as much as you need for one painting session, but the paints will stay good for several weeks if kept covered and refrigerated.

Can I dilute it with water? 
The children's earth paint can be diluted with water as much as you want. It becomes more and more like watercolor as you dilute it.

Can I mix secondary colors from the Natural Earth Paint primaries? 
The 9 colors we offer will not create color spectrum / primary colors that can be mixed to create secondary and tertiary colors. They are earth pigments, made of the earth and are all slightly earth toned. There's no way to mix a true purple with the earth red (venetian red) and blue and no way to mix a true color spectrum green with the earth yellow (yellow ocher) and blue (ultramarine blue). 

What age are the Natural Earth Paints suitable for? 
Our Natural Earth Paints are suitable for all ages 3+

Is the paint edible / food safe? 
Our paints are not intended for consumption. However, our Natural Egg Dye Kits are FDA approved for use in food! Our paints are great to use on children's toys and can be sealed with our Natural Varnish or Natural Acrylic Medium, but care should be taken to limit exposure in one's mouth.

What is the best way to clean up Natural Earth Paint?
Our Natural Earth Paints wash off skin and other surfaces very easily with water. 

Can I use your Natural Earth Paints as Face Paint?
Our Natural Face Paints are made with cosmetic-grade pigments and organic ingredients and are perfect for any kind of face / body painting. However, the children's Natural Earth Paint contains gum arabic and cornstarch, which are safe ingredients but can be drying or irritating to some individuals skin with prolonged contact. However, many people report to us that they use the Natural Earth Paint as face paint. We recommend using our Natural Face Paints instead because they’ve been specifically formulated to nourish the skin while providing vibrant, skin-safe color.

Great paint!

I appreciate that it comes in minimal packaging, and that you can mix the paints with slightly more or less water depending on your kids style. The colors are vibrant and my toddler loves mixing it to order.

Beautiful Color

I purchased the Mayan Red pigment to make a homemade casein paint for painting a custom wood frame. I loved the process of making the paint naturally and the color is beautiful.
