Frequently Asked Questions
Ordering & Payment
How do I place my order?
Browse our categories on the website, select the items you wish to purchase, add them to your cart, then proceed to checkout. At checkout, provide your shipping and payment details, and confirm the order.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept major debit/credit cards, net banking, UPI, and digital wallets for orders within India.
Is payment via debit/credit card secure?
Yes, all online payments on Pristine Forests are processed through secure, encrypted payment gateways. We safeguard your card and transaction details through industry-standard security protocols.
Can I pay by Cash on Delivery (COD)?
Yes, we offer a partial COD option for eligible pin codes within India. To confirm your order, you will need to pay 5 percent of the total order value upfront, and the remaining amount can be paid in cash at the time of delivery.
Can I use a gift voucher or promotional code on my order?
Yes. At checkout you will find a field to enter your voucher or promo code. Once you enter it, the discount will be applied before you proceed to payment.
Can I place an order without creating an account?
Yes we support guest checkout. However, creating an account gives you quicker access to order history, easier re-orders, and notifications of upcoming launches.
My payment was rejected — what should I do?
Payment rejection can happen due to incorrect card details, insufficient funds, bank restrictions, or connectivity issues. Please check your details, contact your bank if needed, and retry. If problems persist, reach out to our Customer Care team with your error code/message.
Shipping & Delivery
What is the expected delivery time?
For orders confirmed on our website, we aim to dispatch within 1-2 business days (excluding weekends and public holidays). In India, standard delivery time is 3-7 business days depending on your location. For remote or hard-to-reach areas, it may take up to 10-12 business days.
Can I ship to an address different from my billing address?
Yes. You may provide a different shipping address during checkout. Please ensure the pin code and address details are correct to avoid delays.
How do I track my order?
Once your order is dispatched, we will email you the courier name and tracking number. You can also check your order’s status in the “My Account” section on our website.
What happens if an item is out of stock after I place the order?
If an item becomes unavailable post-order, we will inform you via email or phone. You will have the option to wait for restock, choose an equivalent product or cancel for a refund.
Cancellation, Returns & Refunds
How do I cancel my order?
You may request cancellation before the item is dispatched by contacting our Customer Care team. Once the product has been shipped, cancellation may no longer be possible and you will need to follow our return policy.
What is your returns policy?
We want you to be delighted with your purchase. If you receive a damaged, defective or wrong item, please contact us within 7 days from delivery. For hygiene and safety reasons (since these are body/face oils and mists), returns are accepted only if the product is unopened and in its original condition, unless the fault lies with us.
When will I receive my refund?
Once we receive and process your return we will initiate the refund to your original payment method. The time for the refund to reflect depends on your bank or payment provider (typically 5-10 business days).
Product Information & Safety
Are your products natural, Ayurvedic or organic?
Yes. At Pristine Forests we formulate our products with high-quality natural botanicals and Ayurvedic inspiration. All ingredients are subject to rigorous quality checks. Any ingredient marked with ** on our labels is certified organic.
Are your products cruelty-free or vegan?
No product is tested on animals. Our products are made with botanical extracts, plant-based preservatives, and clean and safe ingredients.
Can I use your body mist, face mist or oils if I am pregnant or breastfeeding?
We recommend consulting your healthcare provider before using new skincare or body care products during pregnancy or breastfeeding, especially if you are sensitive to essential oils. If you have specific ingredient queries please reach out to our Customer Care team.
What is the shelf-life or expiry date of your products?
Each Pristine Forests product comes with a clear manufacturing date and a printed “best before” date. All our formulations have a shelf life of 2 years from the date of manufacturing. For best results, store your products in a cool and dry place, away from direct sunlight, and keep the bottle tightly closed after each use.
Are your products safe for sensitive skin?
We design our formulations keeping Indian skin and body care conditions in mind. However if you have highly sensitive skin or known allergies, we advise doing a small patch test behind your ear or on the inner forearm and waiting for 24 hours to check for reaction. Stop use immediately if you experience irritation.
