Customer reviews of Cura naturale

Hello Séverine,

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We have looked at your order carefully, and we admit we do not fully understand the situation described: according to the tracking, your package was delivered on time to the selected pickup point at the time of your order, located near your address. Having received no message from you, we were also unaware of any difficulties or contradictory information. If something does not match your choice, write to us at [email protected] with your order number: we will be happy to look into this with you.

Hello Julie, we are sorry that our response may have given the impression of questioning your way of doing things, that was not our intention. Receiving a grainy texture where you expected a smooth balm is disconcerting, and the explanation deserves to be clear: our balms are formulated with unrefined raw shea butter, whose fatty acids naturally crystallize into small grains depending on the temperature. This is not a peeling nor a manufacturing defect; it is the nature of unprocessed butter, which retains all its properties for this reason. These grains do not remain: by taking a small amount and warming it between your fingers, in your hand, or on the area, the material transforms into oil and applies perfectly. The key gesture is the amount, a small dose suitable for the area, massaged until disappearance, never leaving a deposit on the surface. We remain at your disposal at [email protected] to guide you and ensure that this balm gives you complete satisfaction.

Hello Mélanie, we have just reviewed your file in detail to respond to you clearly.

Your order was placed on August 4th after 1 PM: it was therefore shipped the next day, and delivered on August 6th before 1 PM, in accordance with the announced express deadline. However, we understand that the display of the actual delay, between the processing of the order and its receipt, may be confusing, and we will clarify it on the site in the coming days.

Regarding the pickup, the point you had chosen was not available: in this case, it is the carrier who automatically reassigns the package to the nearest relay, without us being able to intervene. The package was returned to us due to not being picked up, and your order has already been refunded to your payment method.

We will get back to you by email to compensate you for the fees, as we want this inconvenience to be resolved as best as possible.

Hello Alexis, we hear your disappointment regarding the return of the flies so shortly after application.

Such a result is not the expected behavior of the Repellent Oil, whose active ingredient of plant origin is documented and evaluated: applied to healthy skin and well massaged for it to penetrate, its full effectiveness window is counted in hours, around 4 to 10 hours in case of high insect pressure, and can last up to one to several days in moderate pressure. A return of flies in a few minutes indicates a usage point to adjust, which we would be happy to discuss with you.

Write to us at [email protected] with your order number, we will review it together to ensure the product meets your satisfaction.

Hello Inès, thank you for taking the time to detail your experience, even though we would have preferred to spare you this. A damaged product upon packaging, then a follow-up that became heavier with messages, is not the way we want to support our customers, and we acknowledge that without reservation. The case has since been taken over directly on our side, with our apologies and the resending of the lost product. We are correcting internally what needs to be corrected, both in preparation and in our way of handling these reports. We sincerely hope to have the opportunity to show you a completely different face one day.

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to leave us this feedback. Our products are formulated from raw materials sourced from suppliers of cosmetic quality and natural origin actives, for a finished product quality that we place at the forefront. Natural ingredients naturally come at a cost that synthetic ingredient formulations do not have, which are cheaper to produce, and it is this choice of actives and suppliers that reflects our price. Nevertheless, it remains very reasonable compared to the market: for comparable quality, our prices are significantly lower than what is practiced elsewhere. It is mainly your feelings about the results that we would like to understand, as effectiveness depends greatly on the product chosen for the right issue, the application method, and the duration of use, and sometimes a simple adjustment is enough to change everything.

Write to us at [email protected] with your order number and the products concerned, we will look closely at your situation to help you get the best out of it.

The Cura naturale team

Hello, thank you for your feedback, and sorry that the result did not meet your expectations.

An application point is crucial for this product, and it is often what explains a disappointment. The repellent oil does not form a layer on the surface of the hair: it is worked in with the fingers or in the palm of the hand, massaging the area until it penetrates, without leaving a greasy film. A small amount well massaged protects much better than a large amount that remains on the surface, which fades almost immediately. The gesture therefore matters much more than the volume applied.

Secondly, this oil is designed for sensitive areas of the head and the most attacked areas, in addition to the repellent which ensures the base coverage over the entire body. Used alone, it leaves the rest of the body attractive and the insects quickly relocate there.

Write to us at [email protected] with your order number, we will gladly resume this protocol with you.

Hello Sandrine, thank you for your feedback, and sorry for this wait that may have worried you.

We have just checked the tracking of your package: it has indeed arrived at your pickup point and is waiting for you, ready to be picked up. The delay you noticed is due to the Mondial Relay shipping, independent of the preparation of your order, which left our workshop on time.

Do not hesitate to contact your pickup point, and if any issue persists on site, write to us at [email protected] with your order number, we will follow up with you.

The Cura naturale team

Hello Solène, thank you for your feedback, and I completely understand your wait, not having received your package to this day is legitimately frustrating.

In order for us to closely track your order and check in with the carrier, please write to us at [email protected] with your order number and the mention URGENT in the subject line, we will prioritize your case.

Have a nice day

Hello

Thank you for detailing your feelings, even if we do not share this observation. Two useful clarifications: the Repellent Oil relies on a plant-based active ingredient whose repellent efficacy is recognized and documented, and feedback from many riders goes in the opposite direction of your experience every day. As for the St. John's wort in the After Effort Oil, it is just one ingredient in low proportion in the formulation and does not lead to any sun-related constraints. The effectiveness of a repellent depends a lot on the quantity, the treated areas, and the renewal after rain or sweating, all points we prefer to discuss with you rather than in a few lines here. Please write to us at [email protected] with your order number, we will look into your case closely.

Have a nice day!

Hello, it is disappointing to read that the result does not last and that you observe hair loss in the application areas, we understand your disappointment.

To respond accurately, we need to identify precisely the product in question and how it is applied, as certain areas like the head require a very specific application method that greatly changes the result and skin comfort.

Please write to us at [email protected] specifying the product used, we will get back in touch to review together and adjust what needs to be adjusted.

Have a nice day!

Hello Carole, thank you for sharing your feelings, and we understand that receiving leaking bottles may have disappointed you.

As we discussed together, these leaks are of mechanical origin at the time of packaging, sometimes due to insufficient tightening of the cap at the end of the line combined with the shocks of transport, with no issues of sealing or preservation of the contents of our products. To prevent this inconvenience from happening again, we will soon be completely evolving our packaging.

As agreed, two solutions are offered to you. Either a refund in the form of a voucher with no expiration date, in which case you keep your bottles, as the product inside remains perfectly usable. Or the return of the bottles for a refund to your original payment method. We remain at your disposal by email at [email protected] to finalize the option that suits you.

Have a nice day.

Hello Caroline, we are sincerely sorry for this situation, not receiving your order and being left without news, it is completely understandable that this has disappointed you.

To be transparent with you: our commitment is to ship any order placed before 1 PM on a working day the same day, and for several months we have not been able to consistently meet this promise. This is a situation we take very seriously, and a deep reorganization is currently underway to resolve this issue at its root and restore the reliability that our deadlines deserve. We will communicate publicly very soon about the upcoming changes.

This does not excuse the lack of news regarding your order, and we want to resolve this as quickly as possible with you. Write to us at [email protected] with the subject URGENT and your order number, we will immediately resume tracking to locate your package and find a solution.

Have a nice day

Hello Lucile, thank you for taking the time to share your feelings, and we are sincerely sorry that the Joint Comfort Clay did not bring you the expected results. For joint issues, clay works in alternation with Joint Comfort Oil, never on the same day, and it is the regularity over several weeks that makes the difference, as the effect is not immediate. We would really like to understand your situation and see how we can better support you. Write to us at [email protected], we would be happy to discuss with you to adjust the protocol to your horse's profile.

Have a nice day

Hello Céline, we read your feedback with real surprise, as all the reviews left on the anti-fly range testify to an effectiveness that our clients highlight season after season. A total lack of results is really not an experience we understand without more context.

The main active ingredient in our repellent range is Java lemongrass, hydrated and cyclized. This process stabilizes the active molecules naturally present in the plant, which are among the most scientifically studied natural repellent molecules for biting insects. The transformation we use allows for a more prolonged and stable action than raw essential oil. Therefore, the performance of the products cannot be called into question in terms of formulation; it is generally in the usage modalities that the discrepancies in results lie.

Several essential parameters condition the actual effectiveness. For the Spray Repellent, since the formula is biphasic, the bottle must be shaken very vigorously before each use to properly mix the two phases and release the actives. This is often a neglected but crucial step. The quantity must be generous, in mist over the entire coat, and the frequency must be daily during peak season, with systematic renewal after showering, sweating, or rain. For the Repellent Oil, the recommended rhythm is every 3 days on the most attacked areas, in addition to the spray and not as a replacement. The range is designed to work in complete synergy: Spray Repellent on large areas daily, Repellent Oil and Natural Clay in alternation on very exposed areas, Repellent Shampoo during showers. Used in isolation or irregularly, the results are significantly less convincing, just like with any repellent on the market.

Additionally, there are external factors: pest pressure varies greatly depending on regions and years, some humid areas or those close to water experience particularly intense attacks, and some horses attract more than others due to their metabolism.

To truly understand what happened and find a solution adapted to your situation, we would be delighted to discuss with you. Write to us at [email protected] specifying your protocol, your region, and the pest pressure you are experiencing, our customer service team will respond to you personally.

Have a nice day

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback and we sincerely apologize for this delay which does not reflect our usual standards.
We would like to clarify: an information banner was indeed displayed on our site to warn our customers about the extended delays before they placed their order. We are nonetheless sorry if it was not sufficiently visible at the time of your purchase.
We have gone through an exceptional growth period that we did not anticipate at this scale, amplified by the success of our seasonal editions and our promotional offer. The volume of orders has exceeded the capacity of our workshop and we are sincerely sorry for that. Before hiring, we needed to have enough hindsight to confirm that this growth was sustainable. It is now evident and our new recruit has just joined the workshop. Our entire team is doing its utmost to restore our usual shipping times as quickly as possible.
We sincerely hope to offer you a much better experience on your next order.

Have a nice day.

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback, and we understand your disappointment, a one-month delay is indeed unacceptable, it is very far from our standard and we are sincerely sorry.

Our promise remains to ship any order placed before 1 PM on a business day the same day. We are currently going through a nice growth period, amplified by the success of our latest seasonal editions, and we are adjusting the team to fully regain this pace. A new recruit will join us very soon, and everything is being put in place to ensure that this type of delay does not happen again.

We would really be happy to restore your trust. If you wish, write to [email protected] mentioning your order number, the team will see what can be done to assist you with a future order.

Have a nice day

Hello,

Your disappointment is completely legitimate and we do not minimize it. This delay does not correspond to our usual promise and we are sincerely sorry.

We went through an exceptional growth period that we did not anticipate, amplified by the success of our seasonal editions and our ongoing promotional offer. This is not an excuse but a reality that we fully acknowledge. A new recruit will soon join our workshop, hiring is in progress, so that this situation does not happen again.

We hope that the products will meet your expectations and that your next experience will be very different.

Have a nice day

Hello,

Your dissatisfaction is legitimate and we do not minimize it.

We are going through an exceptional growth period that we did not anticipate at this scale, combined with the success of our launches and promotional offers. This is not an excuse but a reality that we fully acknowledge. A new recruit will be arriving very soon at the workshop to restore our usual shipping promise.

We would sincerely be sorry to lose you after this bad episode. If you wish to give us another chance, we hope your next experience will meet the standards you deserve.

Have a nice day.

Hello,

Thank you for this feedback, even if it is painful to read, and especially thank you for your loyalty over the years.

You are right on all points and we do not contest that. The lack of proactive communication on our part regarding this delay is a real shortcoming. You should not have had to ask the question to get a response, and the consideration you deserve as a loyal customer was clearly not met. We are sincerely sorry for this.

To be honest, we could not anticipate what happened to us. The conjunction of our growth, the success of our launches, and our promotional offers created a volume that no one in our team had seen coming at this scale. This is not an excuse, it is the reality of a small brand that is growing fast. Before hiring, we needed to have the perspective to confirm that this growth was sustainable. It is now evident and a new recruit is arriving very soon.

Your remark about proactive communication is fair and constructive, it is an area where we need to improve and we will take it to heart.

We sincerely hope to have the opportunity to offer you the experience you deserve during your next order.

Hello Magali, I read your comment with great attention and I am sincerely sorry to learn that your first experience with our brand was so disappointing. I completely understand your frustration with this accumulation of problems and I sincerely apologize. Regarding the processing time, the holiday period has indeed extended our usual deadlines and I am sorry for that. Your email regarding the brush has been received and was being processed for a response this Monday. I regret that the wait during the weekend added to your frustration. We receive a lot of requests during this period and we have a small team. I will handle your email first thing this morning, your satisfaction remains our only priority, and we absolutely do not want to leave you with this very bad impression. We will certainly find a solution for the damaged product. Best regards, Emmanuel

Hello, Thank you for your feedback, and we are sincerely sorry to read that the result did not meet your expectations. The 'sticky' effect you describe is almost always a sign of product overdose. Our nourishing oil is a very pure and rich formula, without water. A very small amount is sufficient. If too much is applied, the fur becomes saturated and can no longer absorb, which gives this greasy or sticky appearance. Our advice for a better experience: Next time, try applying much less. Just pour 2-3 drops into the palm of your hand, rub your palms together, then stroke your dog's fur. This way you will get all the benefits of nutrition and shine, without the sticky effect. We hope this little tip will help you appreciate the product better. Have a nice day!

Hello Sylvie, Thank you for your order! We have received an enormous number of orders and with the holidays (public holiday and bridge), we have not managed to keep up with the shipments. At the beginning of this week, all orders will be shipped, including yours! Regarding your 2 other orders, I cannot find any exchange mentioning a problem, could you please write to me by email to discuss it? Thank you, have a great day Emmanuel.

Hello Valentin, unfortunately at this time of year, Mondial Relay seems to struggle to manage abnormal situations like it was the case with your closed relay point. As discussed with you by email, your package will apparently be delivered to you at the beginning of this week, sorry for this unusual delay. Best regards, Emmanuel

Hello Sarah, I am sorry for this inconvenience. After looking at your order, for your two mane products, no tape is used as it is usually not necessary. However, it may be an isolated accident, as is your case, often due to a mishandled package during transport. Please feel free to contact us by email directly so we can offer you a solution. Have a nice day Emmanuel

Hello Sylvia, I am sorry to read you. Unfortunately, it happens that Mondial Relay takes longer to deliver but it is fortunately rare. I see that your order has indeed arrived at the relay point today and is ready to be picked up. I remain available if needed, Have a nice day to you Emmanuel

Hello Hélène, as mentioned in the email, I contacted Mondial Relay to ask them to deliver your order. I haven't heard back from them yet. As soon as I have a response, I will get back to you, and if it is not conclusive, we will send a package from our workshop at our expense. Best regards, Emmanuel

Hello, Thank you for your feedback, even though we are sincerely sorry to read about your disappointment. It is important to clarify that there may have been a small misunderstanding regarding the expected effect: our warming treatments are not designed to cause intense skin heat, which could be dangerous and lead to burns. Their goal is to stimulate skin receptors through a synergy of essential oils (camphor rosemary, fragrant gaultheria, lavandin super, black pepper), in order to generate a gentle warmth sensation and deep relaxation at the tissue level. To fully experience the effects, it is necessary to use the product several times, following the application advice, as the action is progressive and aims for comfort in the medium term. We remain at your disposal to guide you in the use, so that you can get the best benefit from it. Have a nice day, Aurélie

Hello Émilie, We are sincerely sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations. We understand your frustration, especially since several elements have accumulated on this order. Regarding the 10% promotional code, no message was sent to us on this subject. That said, we can of course grant you this discount through our loyalty program: do not hesitate to request it, we will take care of it with pleasure. Your message reached us at 3:07 PM, but the order had already been prepared and shipped immediately, as mentioned in our response the next morning. We are a small passionate team, which allows us to ship orders very quickly... sometimes too quickly, as was unfortunately the case here. This makes last-minute changes difficult to integrate once the order is launched for preparation. As for the product received, it is not a preparation error: the product sheet specifies that the 500 ml format corresponds to a refill. We understand that this may have caused confusion, and we will review its presentation to make this information more visible. We are sorry that this order did not meet your expectations. Your feedback is valuable and helps us to constantly improve our service. If you wish to discuss this or find a solution together, we are of course at your disposal. Have a nice day, Aurélie

Hello Jeremy, following our exchanges by email, it turns out that we did not receive your first messages and as soon as we received your messages yesterday, your package that had been returned to us has been resent to you. I remain available if needed, Emmanuel
