Hi, and welcome to the Green Daun Online Shop, which caters to those who do not live in the Klang Valley and around Malaysia. Please note that we only serve Malaysia and are not open for international orders except for selected ASEAN countries that go through Shopee.
As you may think, this is not one of those website eCommerce stores. It is actually a link to our Shopee platform, where our online shop is located.

So, why did we not do our e-commerce store here? Sure, we could have easily done that, but the reality is that you would end up paying more for shipping if we did our new-age webstore.
Therefore, the Shopee platform is much more user-friendly and provides a much cheaper shipping rate than the general post office mail. They often offer promotional shipping discounts from time to time.
Also, when you buy from our online shop at Shopee, you will be guaranteed delivery and a very secure payment system.
Please visit our Green Daun Online Shop to make your purchases.
What do we sell in our online shop?
We only sell the essential items most people need; hence, we focus on smudging, cleansing, and other products. We also sell some Wicca and ritual products like candles, incense, etc. For the full catalogue, you must visit our retail shop on weekends.
Why did we use Shopee?
The main reasons are simplicity, the payment gateway, and easy cart checkout. Shopee’s shipping offers are incredible, which means you save money on shipping costs. Shopee is well known to Malaysians; hence, it is easier for customers than our eCommerce shopping platform.
When do we ship orders?
When you purchase our Green Daun New Age Shop account on Shopee, we will send it out the following working day. This means we only ship or post orders from Monday to Friday.
If you cannot wait, we recommend you visit our retail shop, where you can cash and carry the items. We are ONLY OPEN on Fri, Sat & Sun, from 12.00 PM to 6.00 PM. Please don’t try your luck and ask us if we are open on other days. When we state it here, that IS our business hours.
How long does shipping take?
It usually takes two days, but in most cases, the packages arrive in two to three days. Again, when we send out packages, they are in the hands of delivery companies like Shopee Express, DHL, Ninja Van, J&T, and PosLaju.
Shipping may take longer in rare cases, usually when the postal or delivery company’s system has hiccups. However, please note that if you buy from our online shop on a Friday, we will only send it out the following Monday.
If you cannot wait for the products, we recommend visiting our retail store. This is the fastest way to get your items, especially over the weekend.
Are our prices the same as those of our retail shop?
No, what we sell in our retail shop is slightly cheaper than in our online shop. This is because Shopee charges us several fees, such as commission, SST, and other small fees, around 10-20% of our total.
We also know that pure online sellers or social media sellers can manipulate prices as and when they like because they do not have a physical store, no rent, and no overheads to pay.
Our core business is a walk-in retail business where we communicate face-to-face with customers. This is personal; we can share experiences and demonstrate some of our products.
When we have both an online and a proper retail store, customers can visit us in person if they need more information or guidance. This is not possible when you are purely online.
Are there any Wholesale or Bulk Discounts available?
No, we are not wholesalers, nor do we want to try to be. Our business is very niche, and our products are unique and different. We don’t sell clothes or consumer goods which can be bought in bulk for low prices.
We carefully select or hand-pick all our items; hence, we do not aspire to play the wholesale game. Whether you buy one or ten items, each item is still the same price. Why? Because we do not buy thousands of the same item to get them cheaper. We prefer to buy adequate stock and keep re-ordering it to be fresh.
Visit our Green Daun Online Shop
To purchase items, please visit our Green Daun New Age Shop on Shopee. Most popular items, such as California White Sage, Palo Santo, Hojari Green Frankincense Resin, Protection Soap, and so on, are available there.
We will keep adding items to our new-age online shop from time to time, and it will be based on the item’s popularity. This means we do not simply put everything and anything for sale.
Conclusion
One of the reasons we finally opened our online store is the COVID-19 or Coronavirus pandemic that has caught Malaysia off guard. Because of the pandemic, the Malaysian government imposed a Movement Control Order (MCO) several times in 2020, resulting in many lockdowns that did not allow leaving your home.
The entire country has come to a standstill, and non-essential businesses have been ordered to close. However, there was flexibility, and online businesses could continue during the MCO in Malaysia. This is why we started our Green Daun online shop: to cater to our regular and new customers from all over Malaysia.
