Welcome to our online store. These Terms of Service govern your use of our website and the purchase of products from us.
By accessing our website or placing an order, you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree with these terms, please do not use our website.
These Terms are subject to applicable South African law, including the Consumer Protection Act 68 of 2008 (CPA) and the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act 25 of 2002 (ECTA). Nothing in these Terms limits any consumer right that cannot lawfully be excluded.
1. ABOUT OUR STORE
We operate an online skincare store serving customers in South Africa.
Our products are offered for personal skincare use. Product information, descriptions, images and prices are provided to help customers make informed purchasing decisions.
2. PRODUCTS AND PRODUCT INFORMATION
We make reasonable efforts to ensure that product descriptions, photographs, ingredients, sizes and other product information displayed on our website are accurate and up to date.
Product packaging, appearance and colours may vary slightly from images shown on the website.
Customers should read product descriptions and ingredient information before purchasing and should follow the instructions supplied with the product.
Skincare products may affect individuals differently. We do not guarantee that a particular product will produce a specific cosmetic or skincare result.
3. SKINCARE AND ALLERGIES
Customers are responsible for reviewing product ingredients before use and considering any known allergies, sensitivities or other personal circumstances.
If you have a known allergy, sensitive skin, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have a medical skin condition, consult an appropriate healthcare professional before using a new skincare product where appropriate.
Discontinue use if irritation or an adverse reaction occurs and seek appropriate medical advice if necessary.
Our products are cosmetic/skincare products and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent disease unless expressly stated otherwise.
4. PRICES
All prices displayed on our website are in South African Rand (ZAR), unless otherwise stated.
We may change product prices from time to time. A price change will not affect an order that has already been accepted, except where correction of an obvious pricing error is required by applicable law.
Shipping charges are shown separately at checkout where applicable.
5. ORDERS
When you place an order, you are making an offer to purchase the selected products.
An order is subject to product availability, successful payment and acceptance of the order by us.
We reserve the right to refuse or cancel an order where permitted by law, including where there is an obvious pricing or product information error, suspected fraudulent activity, or insufficient stock.
If we are unable to fulfil an accepted order because the product is unavailable, we will notify you and provide any remedy or refund required by applicable law.
6. PAYMENT
Payment must be successfully completed through the payment methods made available at checkout.
You agree to provide accurate and complete information necessary to process your order.
We do not store or have access to your full payment card details where payment is processed through a third-party payment provider.
7. SHIPPING AND DELIVERY
We currently deliver within South Africa.
The standard delivery fee is R79 unless otherwise stated at checkout.
Our estimated delivery period is generally 4–7 business days after the applicable order processing and fulfilment period.
Delivery times are estimates and may be affected by circumstances outside our reasonable control, including courier delays, public holidays, severe weather, incorrect delivery information or other unforeseen events.
You are responsible for providing an accurate delivery address and contact information.
