How can I increase padding above a specific section in CSS?

Topic summary

Goal: increase vertical spacing (CSS padding) above the “SILK PRESS COMB” section on a Shopify storefront. Padding refers to the internal space above an element to create more room before its content.

The poster couldn’t target the right CSS selector/class and shared the live URL and a screenshot for context. An initial suggestion didn’t work.

They clarified the affected area is the “Hot Spots” section within the Impact theme, hinting the correct selector might be theme- or section-specific.

Another participant requested the store password to inspect the theme and identify the correct selector.

Outcome: the original poster later confirmed they found a solution and expressed thanks. No code, selector, or steps were shared publicly.

Status: resolved by the poster; the thread does not document the exact fix, so the reusable solution remains unknown.

Note: the site link and screenshot were central references for diagnosing the issue.

Hey Michael,
thanks for your quick reply! Sadly, it did not work. Maybe it helps if I tell you that the section is called “Hot Spots” and is within the “Impact” Theme. Thanks
