1. OUR RETURNS POLICY
If you are a customer in the UK or the European Union (EU), you get 14 calendar days under law to cancel your order if you change your mind. However, we may, in our sole discretion, offer you a longer period for returns from time to time. This cancellation period starts from the day after you receive your order. If your order is split into more than one delivery, then the cancellation period will start on the day after you have received all of the Products in your order. Find out how to return your Product(s) at paragraph 5 below.
If you receive faulty Products, you may also have a right to return these Products and to ask us to repair or replace them, or get a refund. Further details on this are set out below.
Please note that, with the exception of any Products which are faulty (for which, see paragraph 2 below):
- Any Product(s) returned must be sent to us within 14 days from the date you notify us of your intention to return the Product(s).
- Returned Products should be sent back to us in their original condition, together with the original packaging and all tags.
- All Products are inspected on return. When trying on clothing, please be careful with the Product (e.g. don’t apply excessive force when pulling zips) and don’t wear products that could mark or scent a Product (such as make-up, fake-tan, perfume, deodorant, cologne etc.).
- Returned Products must be unworn and unwashed.
We will not accept returned Products that show any signs of having been worn or washed, including where the Products are stained or otherwise marked or damaged.
If a Product is returned to us that has been worn, used, damaged, or is otherwise in an unsaleable condition, we reserve the right to refuse your refund. Alternatively, we reserve the right to reduce your refund value to reflect any reduction in the value of a Product.
In addition:
- Pierced jewellery cannot be returned for health and hygiene reasons if the packaging has been removed, or the seal has been removed, tampered with, or broken.
- Underwear, swimwear and fashion facemasks can only be returned if the hygiene seal has not been removed and all tags remain intact.
- Beauty products (including facial and body products) and accessories cannot be returned for hygiene reasons, if they have been opened, used or if the protective seal is not intact.
- Returned shoes must not have been worn outside, however they may have been tried on indoors (but not on any stone or tiled floors). Any returned footwear must be in its original box (if any) and original shoe or dust bag (if any).
- Electrical Products may have their own specific warranty period or additional terms relating to returns. Please see further details on any product page. In some cases, electrical Products may not be returned if the packaging has been tampered with or opened, or if any hygiene seal (where applicable) has been tampered with, or is broken.
This does not affect any other rights you may have under the law.
2. RESTRICTIONS TO YOUR ACCOUNT
We reserve the right in our sole discretion to block your customer account, in circumstances where you breach this Returns Policy, Fair Usage Policy or breach our Website Terms of Use or Terms and Conditions of Sale , including by returning Products in a used condition, or failing to return Products relating to cancelled orders.
Where we suspect fraudulent activity, including in circumstances where there are suspicious claims relating to orders having been placed, but not received, or if we suspect that you are returning Products after they have been used or worn, or Products returned do not match what you ordered, we reserve the right to withhold refunds and restrict your account (and any associated accounts) from placing orders in the future. If this happens to you and you think we’ve made a mistake, you can Contact Us and we will discuss the matter with you further.
If your account has been restricted and you need to make a valid return, please Contact Us and we can provide you with further assistance, although you may be responsible for the cost of returning Products to us. We reserve the right to take legal action in the case of fraudulent activity on your account, whether suspected or proven.

5. HOW TO RETURN A PRODUCT & HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
UK & INTERNATIONAL RETURNS
Please note that if you choose to return via any method other than one of our chose carriers, you will remain responsible for the items including for any loss or damage until we receive them.
For International returns, you will need to pay for your return, you can find out the postage price in the portal or you will be asked to download a returns label and pay for postage at your local post office. Please use a trackable service and keep your proof of postage receipt until after your refund is processed.
If you use the returns portal, the process for returns is as follows:
- Repack your Products.
- Login to our returns portal. You will need your order number and email/last 4 digits of your phone number.
- Select your preferred return option (Print returns label at home or in store options).
- Once you have processed your return in the portal you're ready to post it off! Make sure you keep proof of postage!
- Keep an eye on your return tracking. You'll get an email once we receive your returned Product.
If you do not use the returns portal, then you can repack the Products for returning at your own cost. In this case, please ensure that the return parcel is marked clearly with the wording "Return to supplier" or wording having similar effect.

6. HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO PROCESS MY RETURN?
It can take up to 28 days from the date of your return for your parcel to be delivered back to our warehouse and your refund processed. On receiving your return, the next step is for us to check the Product(s).

Please note that different refund processing times may apply, and you should review the applicable terms for your chosen service provider for further information.
