Returns and Refunds Policy
We supply cosmetics, fragrance and consumables to businesses, and hygiene and safety rules shape what can come back. This page sets out exactly where the line is, so you know before you order.
Section 1Scope
This policy applies to wholesale orders supplied to business buyers. It is not a consumer returns policy, and rights that apply to consumer purchases do not apply here.
Section 2When we accept a return
A return is accepted where:
- we sent the wrong product, or the shipment was incomplete against the packing list;
- the goods are faulty or defective;
- the goods were damaged in transit and the damage was reported within 24 hours of delivery with photographic or video evidence.
Section 3What cannot be returned
Cosmetics, fragrance and personal care products whose seal, protective film or packaging has been opened, tested or used cannot be returned. This is a hygiene and safety requirement, not a commercial preference, and it applies even where the goods are otherwise unused.
Change of mind is not a valid reason for return. Orders are prepared to the specification you confirmed on the quote, which is why the quote stage is where quantities and references are worth checking carefully.
Section 4Reporting a problem
Send your order number and a short description to your account contact or to [email protected]. For transport damage, include photographs or video that clearly show the outer box, the packaging and the affected goods, taken before unpacking further.
Transport damage has to reach us within 24 hours of delivery. After that the carrier will not accept a claim, and neither can we.
Section 5How a claim is handled
We check the report against the dispatch records, the packing list and the evidence you provide, and we come back with the outcome and the options. Depending on the case that is a replacement on the next shipment, a credit against your account, or a refund.
Where goods have to come back before the claim is settled, we tell you where to send them and confirm the arrangements in writing first. Goods returned without agreement cannot be processed.
Section 6Return freight and refunds
On a valid return, we cover the return freight. Where a return is not justified or has not been approved in advance, the freight is yours.
Approved refunds are issued to the payment route the order was paid from. How quickly the money lands depends on your bank or payment provider rather than on us.
