The date of mailing is determined by the date that tracking information has been populated. For more information on filing a claim with carriers, please reach out to us.

SUSTAINABILITYDo you have a sustainability program?

Our fulfillment center takes the following steps to keep our environmental footprint as small as possible:

  • All shipping boxes are 100% recyclable (or reusable).
  • We use brown kraft packing paper which is a 100% recyclable, natural, biodegradable and compostable material (no packing peanuts here!)
  • In order to create an efficient packing process to maximize the space used in each shipment, and minimize waste, our operations team in Los Angeles, CA measured and created a product configuration chart.
  • We do not print packing slips to help reduce the amount of paper used.

How do I dispose of my products the right way?

We created these vibrators to last pretty much forever, but if you and your vibe are ready to break up, please look up the nearest e-waste recycling facilities near you. Keep in mind that opening the device will void its warranty. Our vibes contain a lithium-ion battery which needs to be removed and should not be thrown away with household waste. To remove the battery, peel away the silicone cover, open the plastic shell, and remove the battery to be disposed of by your local environmental regulations. Wear gloves during this process for your safety. Once you have carefully discarded your item, we have plenty more fun vibes that await you!

For the lubricants and gels, we advise you to rinse the bottle thoroughly once you have finished with it, peel the label off, separate the cap and bottle, and place them in your recycling bin. 

WARRANTY

We stand by the quality of all our Pleasure Products. Should you have any issue with your Higher Love purchase, please check out our product support FAQ.

If this does not solve the problem, please follow the instructions to complete a warranty claim.

Higher Love products are intended for adults only. Our products are of the highest quality and come with a 1-year worldwide manufacturing warranty after the date of original purchase, against defects due to faulty workmanship or materials. If you discover a defect and notify us during the warranty period, we will, at our discretion, replace the pleasure product free of charge.

The warranty covers working parts that affect the function of the pleasure object. It does NOT cover cosmetic deterioration caused by fair wear and tear or damage caused by accident, misuse or neglect. Any attempt to open or take apart the pleasure object (or its accessories) will void the warranty.

Claims under warranty must be supported by reasonable evidence that the date of the claim is within the warranty period. To validate your warranty you must provide us with your order details (name, email address or order number).

Once your return is approved, pleasure products under warranty claim must be returned to Higher Love with your order details - otherwise, we will not know who to attribute the return to. Shipping costs are non-refundable.

If you experience any problems with your pleasure product, have any questions regarding its operation or believe you are eligible for a warranty claim, please contact help(@)hilobrands.com

PRODUCT SUPPORTPRODUCT MANUALS

To download your product manual in the event you misplaced yours, please click the links below:

Dream Wand Kit

Where are your products made? 

Our lubricants and gel products are produced in California, USA. Our vibes are produced in China using the highest manufacturing standards by manufacturers vetted by our partners.

What materials are your products made of?

Our vibes are made of body-safe silicone and ABS plastic. They are all latex and phthalate free. Our lubricants and gels are made from body-safe ingredients which are listed on their product page of this website.

Do all your vibes come with a charging cable? What if I lost mine?

Yes, all vibes come with a USB charging cable. If you need to order a replacement cable, these can be purchased for a small fee by emailing us at help(@)hilobrands.com.

Which charging adapter do I use with the Higher Love charging cable?

USB adapters are universal. Depending on the manufacturer, some will take a longer or shorter time to charge (same as if you charge your phone via the computer or a wall charger adapter). Please do not use a high-power charger as it may be too powerful for your vibe, and damage the battery. Smart USB chargers may not function; a standard USB-A outlet is preferred. 

How do I charge my vibe?

All vibes need to be charged before you first use them. Your instruction manual will indicate where to place your charger on your vibe - it can be via magnet charging clips or through a DC port in the product itself. After the first charge, only charge your vibe when they are empty or very low, to save their battery life. Once you connect your charger, the light on it will flash to indicate it is charging. When the light is steady, the device is fully charged. 

Help! My vibe isn’t charging.

Your vibe’s light isn’t pulsing when the charger is connected? This could be why: 

• The charging light may be on but sometimes they’re hard to see in a brightly lit room.

• Battery is already fully charged

• Battery is drained and will require several minutes to recognize that it is being charged.

• Charger is not properly connected. Check your charging block and DC jack.

Connect to a standard USB A power outlet [ like the one on your computer or phone charger] some USB chargers may not be compatible, so make sure to try one that you know works on other devices.

Which lubricants should I use with vibes?

We recommend using a water-based lubricant. Avoid using a silicone-based lubricant as this could kill your vibe. If you must use a silicone-based lubricant, perform a patch test first. Wash thoroughly after every use.

Do not use with oil-based massage oils (such as coconut oil) or oil-based lubricants as it may damage the silicone.

How do I care for my vibe?

After every use, clean with warm water and antibacterial soap or toy cleaner. Dry thoroughly with a clean towel or air dry. Store in a cool, dry place and keep your vibe away from toys made of other materials and direct sunlight. Remember to charge periodically to maintain the battery life.

Are all your vibes water resistant?

Our vibes are water resistant, not 100% waterproof. This means they’re safe to be rinsed in running water or get a little wet in the shower. Do not fully submerge your vibes, as there is a small chance water may get into the charging port and affect your ability to charge your vibe. That could really kill your buzz.

How do I dispose of my vibe?

Only dispose of your device if it's ready to be disposed of. Keep in mind that opening the silicone casing over the device will void its warranty. Our vibes contain a lithium-ion battery which needs to be removed and should not be thrown away with household waste. To remove the battery, peel away the silicone cover, open the plastic shell, and remove the battery to be disposed of by your local environmental regulations. Wear gloves during this process for your safety. Once you have carefully discarded your item, we have plenty more fun vibes that await you!

LUBES & GELSHow safe is the Higher Love lubricant?

Our products are created using the highest quality ingredients and are absolutely body-safe for you to use and enjoy. For specific ingredient information, instructions and warnings, please review the specific product pages on this website. If you have sensitive skin, we advise always performing a patch test before using on your most intimate areas.
