Selecting different ingredients on the product builder to create a personalised blend is similar to choosing different nutraceutical products from the shelf. We adhere to South African legislation and regulations, ensuring the safety of the public and where the regulations fail to stipulate limits, TAILORBLEND protects the user by only allowing you to choose within toxicity and practical limits. We further research ingredient interactions continuously and our system will not allow you to create unsafe combinations if we should find such interactions within our ingredient offering.

Because every blend is made to order for you, it can’t be returned for a change of mind the way an off-the-shelf product can.
If your blend arrives defective or isn’t what you ordered, email orders@tailorblend.co.za and we’ll replace it or refund you. See our Refund and Returns policy for the full terms.
TAILORBLEND uses a unique, proprietary system to adjust the blend's recipe as you add active ingredients, to ensure that you receive the best product possible. Sometimes the amount of ingredients in the product base have to be increased to compensate for a particular ingredient's characteristics. As we determine the price of the product according to a fixed blending fee plus a R / gram rate for each ingredient, it might have a large impact when an expensive ingredient, increases or decreases.
Each blend has a fixed price component, called the Blending Fee, to cover expenses such as labour, packaging, quality control etc. Each ingredient, including the non-active ingredients within the product base, has a Rand / gram rate, which is continuously applied as the live recipe is updated.
TAILORBLEND endeavours to provide you with the active ingredients in their purest, undiluted form. In instances where we have to add ingredients for practical reasons, we use high quality ingredients. An example is the case with our Drink base, where we have to add an ingredient to increase the volume of powder, just for you to be able to measure it accurately at home. For this purpose we use Fibersol-2(R), a quality soluble fibre, also available as an active ingredient. The product price, with no user-added active ingredients, is thus the sum of the Blending Fee and the ingredients already in the base, which are in turn influenced by product options you choose.
