***Please note that these timelines follow the service guidance provided directly by Royal Mail and UPS. We will always pack and ship your order on time for it to arrive within the delivery method selected at checkout
If a courier fails to deliver within their stated time frame, The Pretty Mob UK is not legally liable once your parcel has been handed over to the courier. Under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 (Section 29), the risk passes to the customer when the goods are delivered to the carrier chosen by the customer at checkout. Any delays or failed delivery time frames caused by the courier must be claimed with the courier directly
Shipping costs are non-refundable in these circumstances because the service was fulfilled on our end when the parcel was dispatched on time***

Orders are processed and shipped Monday to Friday only, excluding weekends and public holidays. All orders are shipped in line with the shipping method selected at checkout. Once your parcel has been dispatched and tracking details have been provided, we cannot be held responsible for courier delays, missed delivery attempts, or customs hold-ups. Shipping charges are non-refundable under all circumstances.

All orders are shipped to the shipping address provided at checkout. It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure that this address is complete and correct, including house or flat number, street name, postcode/ZIP code, and any other required details.

If you notice an error with your shipping address, you must contact us immediately at support@theprettymob.co.uk. If the order has not yet been packed or shipped, we will update the shipping details where possible. If the order has already been processed, packed, or dispatched, we cannot make changes and are not responsible for any loss, delay, or failed delivery.

If an order is returned to us because of an incorrect or incomplete shipping address, the customer will be required to pay for redelivery. Shipping charges are non-refundable in such cases.

Force Majeure

We are not liable for failure to perform, late delivery, or non-delivery caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control. This includes but is not limited to courier delays, customs delays, strikes, natural disasters, or other force majeure events.

Hygiene and Safety

For reasons of health protection and hygiene, we cannot accept returns of products that have been opened, used, or tampered with, unless they are confirmed defective after inspection. In such cases, the product must have been used no more than once and must be returned within seven (7) days of receipt for inspection. Products returned after seven days, or showing signs of heavy use, alteration, or tampering, will not be eligible for a refund or replacement. Allergic reactions do not qualify as defects and are not grounds for a refund or replacement. We provide full ingredient disclosure and offer test-size products so that customers can check for sensitivities before purchasing full-sized items.

No Resale Policy

Products purchased from us are for personal use only and are not intended for resale. We reserve the right to refuse or cancel orders suspected of being purchased for resale.

Limitation of Liability

Our liability is limited strictly to the value of the product purchased. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, including but not limited to lost profits, lost business opportunities, or reputational damage.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms and Policies are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Any disputes will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.

Pick-Up & Collection Policy

Once your order is marked as “Ready for Collection” and you receive your notification, you will have 7 days to collect your order from the specified pick-up location.

If your order is not collected within 7 days, it will be automatically refunded in full, and you will need to place a new order if you still wish to receive your items.

Collection Scheduling

All collections must be pre-scheduled.

Under no circumstances should you arrive at the collection address without first arranging and confirming your collection date and time.

If you arrive without confirmation, we hold no liability if your order is not ready for pick-up.

Arrival & Timing

It’s your responsibility to keep us updated if you’re running late or early.

For example, if you’re scheduled to collect at 1:00 PM on Tuesday but arrive at 1:30 PM without notifying us, we are not responsible if your order is unavailable at that time.

Order Preparation

Collections are typically ready within one hour of ordering; however, this depends on stock levels, order time, and other operational variables

All sales are final. Returns and refunds are only considered if an item is believed to be defective.

If a customer believes an item is defective, the product must be shipped back to us for inspection before any refund or replacement can be issued. Customers must allow up to 14 days for inspection and testing. If the product is confirmed defective, a replacement or refund will be provided at our discretion. If the product is found to be non-defective, the customer may pay for redelivery of the original item.

Store credit may be offered instead of a refund at our discretion. Store credit is valid for 12 months from the date of issue and cannot be exchanged for cash.

Any claims that an item arrived damaged, opened, or faulty must be reported promptly and supported by clear photographs of the product and all original packaging. Without this evidence, we are unable to verify the claim and no refund or replacement will be issue
Refunds are only eligible where products show signs of minimal use (e.g., tested once). If upon inspection it is found that a product has been heavily used, altered, or tampered with, no refund or replacement will be provided.

We are not liable for allergic reactions. All cosmetic products carry the possibility of skin sensitivity or allergic response. We have provided protective guidance for safe application and have also created mini versions and starter kits specifically to allow customers to test products before full purchase. By purchasing our products, customers acknowledge that allergic reactions are possible and do not constitute grounds for a refund or chargeback.

Shipping charges are strictly non-refundable under all circumstances. If an order is returned due to incorrect or incomplete address details, refusal of delivery, or failure to collect from the courier, the original shipping cost will be deducted from any refund.

Chargebacks will not be accepted where the customer has not first attempted to resolve the matter with us directly. Courier tracking, delivery scans, and proof of delivery (including signatures or photographs) will be treated as final proof that an order was delivered successfully.
