14-Day Withdrawal

Eligible unused, unopened and sealed products may be returned within the statutory 14-day withdrawal period.

Hygiene & Safety

Opened, unsealed, tested or used cosmetic products cannot be accepted back for hygiene reasons, unless defective.

Damaged or Wrong Item

Please contact us within 48 hours of delivery and include photos of the parcel and product.

Refund Processing

Eligible refunds are processed according to the payment method and applicable return rules.

1. Hygiene & Safety

For health protection and hygiene reasons, we cannot accept returns or exchanges of cosmetic products that have been opened, unsealed, tested, used, or where a hygiene seal, sticker, shrink-wrap, pump clip, protective cap or inner cap has been removed after delivery.

If the product is sealed, unused and in its original unopened packaging, you may return it under your statutory 14-day right of withdrawal.

If the product has been opened, unsealed or used, we cannot accept a return or exchange unless the item is defective.

This includes products such as jars, bottles, tubes, droppers, pads, sheet masks, applicators and any item intended to come into contact with the skin, lips, eyes or mucosa.

2. Products Supplied Without a Seal

Some brands may supply certain products without outer shrink-wrap, stickers or seals. This can be a normal manufacturer packaging choice and does not automatically mean that the product has been opened, used or is defective.

For products supplied without a manufacturer seal, a return is possible under the 14-day withdrawal right only if the product is unused, in pristine condition and returned with all original components, including box, cap, inner stopper, leaflet, gift or sample where applicable.

If we cannot verify that the product remains unused — for example because the pump has been primed, the cap has been removed, product has been dispensed, or residue or smudges are visible — we may refuse the return for hygiene reasons.

3. Order Cancellations Before Dispatch

You may cancel your order before it has been dispatched by emailing us with your order number.

If the order has not yet left our warehouse, we will cancel it and refund the full amount paid.

Refunds are issued to the original payment method where possible.

If the order has already been dispatched, the 14-day withdrawal process applies only to eligible sealed and unused goods.

4. 14-Day Right of Withdrawal

If you are a consumer purchasing online, you have 14 calendar days from the day you receive the goods to withdraw from the contract without giving a reason.

1. Email us a clear withdrawal request within 14 days of delivery.
2. Include your order number, full name and the item or items you wish to return.
3. Send the products back within 14 days of notifying us.

The products must be unused, unopened and sealed where applicable, in their original packaging and with all leaflets, gifts and samples included.

Return shipping costs are the responsibility of the customer, unless the return is due to our error, such as a wrong item sent, defective product or damaged product.

5. Wrong, Damaged or Defective Items

If you receive the wrong item or your order arrives damaged, please contact us within 48 hours of delivery with photos of the parcel and product.

If a product is defective, please contact us with your order number, a description of the issue and supporting photos or videos where possible.

For wrong or damaged items, we will help arrange a replacement or refund where applicable.

For defective items, your legal rights are not limited by our hygiene return rules.

Please do not dispose of the product or packaging before contacting us, as photos or return of the item may be needed.

6. Refunds

Refunds are issued within 14 days of receiving the returned goods or proof that they were sent back, whichever applies under the relevant rules.

Payment / Charge Refund Method
Card Payments Refunded to the same card where possible.
Cash on Delivery Refunded by bank transfer. We may ask for your IBAN and account name.
Non-Refundable Charges Premium delivery upgrades and third-party collection or handling services used by the customer.
