What to do if I haven't achieved the desired results from my purchase

Various factors can influence changes in your skin, and incorporating a progressive skincare product is just one aspect of addressing skin conditions and characteristics. We typically recommend using a product for a minimum of three months, provided you haven't experienced any adverse reactions, to assess whether it has yielded the desired results. It's important to note that the skin operates in cycles, which can affect the timeframe for noticeable improvements.

As outlined in our terms and conditions, we cannot guarantee specific results for our products, nor do we offer a money-back guarantee based on personal preferences. Consequently, refunds for products due to unsatisfactory outcomes are not within our policy.

However, we're more than happy to schedule a consultation with one of our skin specialists to evaluate your current skincare regime and offer additional advice to help you achieve your skincare goals. Please feel free to reach out if you'd like to arrange this service.

How do I exchange my order?

The fastest way to ensure you get what you want is to return the item you have, and once the return is accepted, make a separate purchase for the new item.

Subscriptions

How do subscriptions work?

Subscriptions are automatically renewed according to your selected delivery interval and the products will be automatically delivered by the shop after each successful renewal.
For example, if you started a monthly subscription, then the system will automatically charge your credit card each month and you will get the products to your doorstep each month, without the need to place the order by yourself!

Can I pause or cancel a subscription?

Yes, of course. You can pause or cancel a subscription any time you want in the customer portal, as seen in the screenshot below. The only time when the subscription can't be cancelled is if you started a subscription which requires a certain number of payments before you can cancel it.
The customer portal can be accessed through the magic link you received in the email that was sent to you when you placed an initial subscription order in the shop. You can also access your subscriptions if you create an account in your shop.

If you'd still like to cancel then please contact our customer services team hello@skintique.co.uk

You can skip or reschedule the charge in the customer portal. Each scheduled delivery will have a Skip payment button next to it, which you can use to skip the charge. You can reschedule the charge by clicking on the Reschedule button next to the delivery date.
