( Intro )

A shop that cannot take payment online should stop pretending to, and earn trust instead.

( The decision )

Take the cart out, and let the catalogue do the persuading.

  • The Aurora products page: filters reading All 24, Daily wellness 4, Energy and vitality 6, Digestive and detox 6, Skin and personal care 8, above a grid of supplement cards carrying a name and a botanical name and no price.

    Twenty-four products, no checkout

    Every product carries its botanical name, supplement facts, usage, and what it is traditionally used to support. Nothing carries a price, because nothing here takes an order.

  • A product page for Clearing Nut, showing its botanical name, description, and traditional uses beside a photograph of the bottle.

    A product page that answers questions

    Latin name, dosage, and a line telling anyone pregnant, nursing or on medication to seek guidance first. A supplement page that omits that is selling, not informing.

  • The philosophy page: “Nature knows. We help you understand.” set large in white over a dark photograph of Sri Lankan botanicals.

    Belief, where the checkout used to be

    A shop that takes no money has to be worth believing. The philosophy and sustainability pages carry that weight — sourcing, certification and what the retailer will not claim.

( Reviews you can trust )

A review is invited, moderated, and only then published.

  • The product's review section with the sign-in dialog raised over it: writing a review requires an account, offering Google or email.

    One link, one product, one buyer

    The retailer sends a link for the product someone actually bought. They sign in, rate it, and may attach a photo. Nothing appears publicly until it is approved.

( Where it is now )

The storefront is built and the review workflow is the piece still landing.
